Overview
The Attwood Marine 5580A7 is an LED wake tower all-round navigation light for 12V systems, with 2 nautical mile visibility and a full 360° beam for pleasure craft up to 39.4 ft (12 m). Its fixed-base housing is sized for mounting on a wakeboard tower, radar arch, hard top, poling platform, tuna tower, or another fixed structure where you need an elevated all-round light without a pole assembly.
This light is a direct LED replacement for Attwood's incandescent 5940 series. It uses a white LED, draws 3W at 12V DC, and has a polycarbonate housing that is impact resistant and UV stable, with fully sealed electronics for wet, exposed mounting locations. The light stays cool to the touch in use and is rated for more than 50,000 hours.
Key features
- 2 nautical mile all-round light with 360° visibility for pleasure craft up to 39.4 ft (12 m)
- White LED output rated at 3W on 12V DC
- Polycarbonate housing that is impact resistant and UV stable, with fully sealed electronics and a watertight build
- Made for wakeboard towers, radar arches, hard tops, poling platforms, tuna towers, and other fixed mounting points
- Direct LED replacement for Attwood 5940 series lights
- Tab-release light head and 6 in wire leads for mounting and wiring access
- Meets USCG CFR 183.810 and ABYC A-16 requirements
Installation and setup
The light head releases with a tab so you can reach the mounting base during installation. It uses two #8 or #10 stainless pan head screws per light and connects to 12V DC with 6 in wire leads. A bead of non-silicone sealant under the base helps keep water from entering the hull or cabin.
For correct navigation-light placement, mount it on a smooth surface at least 1 meter above the sidelights, with the 360° beam kept clear of towers, gear, and other obstructions. The wiring layout calls for a 1-amp fuse.
Compatibility and fit
This light suits boats that carry the all-round light on a tower, arch, hard top, or platform instead of a removable pole. It also fits owners replacing an older Attwood 5940-series light at the same style of mounting point and moving to an LED unit with sealed electronics.
On board, it makes the most sense where spray, sun, and vibration are part of normal use, such as wake boats, ski boats, center consoles with a hard top, and fishing boats with a poling platform or tuna tower.
