On my 2002 380DA, the ACR RCL-100D spotlight needs a new bulb and either the keypad or the controller is bad. So either way, the cost may approach the cost of the RCL-75. My questions is has someone made the swap from their 100? I am questioning the drop in candlepower which is supposed to be 200,000 for the 100D and 180,000 for the 75. It does not seem like a big difference, but there is a huge difference in price. The saying you get what you pay for comes to mind.
I am guessing the 100D that is on my 02 380DA is the original spot and I am concerned once I purchase one or two new parts or two for it, something else is going to need replacement. From what I understand, the new control wire is different and power may be different as well. Hoping I can use the existing wires as a pull wire for the new one(s).
Our plan is to upgrade the boat in a year or two so longevity is not a critical factor here although I want to leave the new owner a working light. If this was already discussed, my apology, couldn't find any hits when searched.
TY,
Vince
