The Lumitec Contour is a 12 inch LED anchor light with a retractable locking base and a simple two-wire hookup. The body is composite plastic and sealed to IP67. It runs on 10-30 V DC, so it works on both 12 V and 24 V systems, drawing 80 mA at 12 V and rated at 0.9 W. Visibility is 2 nautical miles, and it meets USCG and COLREG requirements for marine navigation lighting.
Our take
At 80 mA on a 12 V system and 0.9 W rated, the Contour is a light load, so an anchor light left burning overnight is an easy draw on the house bank. The retractable locking base also keeps a small footprint on the mount.
From our buying guide
The lights a boat must show depend on its length and how it's being driven. A sailboat under power is a power-driven vessel and shows power-driven lights.
Check before you buy:
- The label gives its visibility in nautical miles, and that range meets the minimum for your boat's length.
- The maker rates it for boats of your length.
- A replacement LED is certified with the fixture it's going into, since the Coast Guard warns that replacement lighting may not meet the rules.
