Perko 1444 Series White All-Round LED Navigation Light, For 0 and 5 Degree Plug-In Bases, 12V, 2nm

Overview

The Perko 1444 is a white all-round LED navigation pole light for power-driven vessels under 20 meters, built for a nominal 12 volt DC system and certified for 2 nautical miles of visibility. It uses a self-contained LED module behind a clear frosted lens, with a polymer top and base on a 3/4 inch aluminum tube pole.

This plug-in pole light is made for boats that need a raised white all-round light for night running, anchoring, or meeting navigation light layout requirements on smaller powerboats. The series is available in pole lengths from 24 inches to 60 inches, which helps match the lens height to the boat's existing side lights and deck layout.

Power draw is low at 1.28 watts and 0.10 amps, making it a practical replacement for older incandescent pole lights when the vessel already uses a compatible plug-in base. The LED optics adjust for 0-degree and 5-degree pole mount angles, which helps the light sit correctly in common Perko base installations.

Key features

• White all-round LED navigation light certified for power-driven vessels under 20 meters and 2 nautical miles of visibility.
• Runs on a nominal 12 volt DC system with 1.28 watt draw and 0.10 amp current draw.
• 3/4 inch aluminum tube pole with polymer top and base plus a clear frosted lens.
• Fits Perko 0-degree and 5-degree plug-in mounting bases, including 1045, 1046, 1047, 1048, 1049, and 1060 styles.
• LED optics adjust based on pole mount angle, helping the light sit properly when installed in compatible raked bases.
• Available in aluminum and black finishes with pole length options from 24 inches through 60 inches.
• Meets current navigation light requirements including ABYC C-5, ABYC A-16, EN/ISO 19009:2015, 1972 COLREGS, RCD 2013/53/EU, and USCG 33 CFR 2 nm.

Variants

This product range varies by pole finish and pole length. Finish options include aluminum and black, while pole lengths run from 24 inches to 60 inches in 6 inch steps.

The light head, 12 volt DC electrical specification, 2 nautical mile visibility rating, 3/4 inch pole format, and compatible Perko plug-in base family remain consistent across the listed variants. The main buying decision is the pole height needed to place the white all-round lens correctly above the vessel's red and green side lights, along with the finish that best matches the boat's hardware and console area.

Installation and fit

This is a replacement pole light and must be used with a separately mounted compatible base. It can be installed in 0-degree or 5-degree raked bases, and the package collars allow the pole to work with common Perko locking collar or threaded collar base arrangements.

For proper navigation light positioning, the center of the all-round white lens must sit at least 1 meter, or 39.4 inches, above the center of the vessel's red and green side light lenses. On boats with taller consoles, rails, T-tops, or raised bow profiles, the longer pole options help maintain the required light separation and visibility.

Electrical and marine use

The low-current LED module is a good fit for small powerboats, fishing boats, runabouts, center consoles, and other vessels under 20 meters that use a 12 volt DC navigation light circuit. It is especially useful where a removable stern or all-round pole light is preferred for storage, trailering, or cockpit access.

Before installation, the existing base style and collar arrangement should be checked against the pole and included collars. The light should be wired and mounted so it remains visible through the required arc and height, with the pole fully seated and secured before night operation.
