LETECH Marine: Headlight bracket and radar mast from the off-road specialist

LETECH Marine is expanding its range to include three accessory components for maritime use. The S1 and SF2 headlight brackets and the R2 radar mast are now available in electropolished and powder-coated versions. The company is utilising its experience in off-road vehicle construction to enter the marine sector.

LETECH Marine is the new business division ofLETECH GmbH & Co. KG from Welzheim. The company is transferring its expertise from the construction of off-road vehicles and expedition equipment to the maritime sector. The first three products are aimed at boat owners who need additional lighting and radar equipment in the dark or in difficult conditions. All components are manufactured in Germany in accordance with ISO 9001:2015.

S1 headlight bracket with four LED round headlights

The S1 headlight bracket is equipped with four LED round headlights, which together generate 22,840 lumens of luminous flux. This luminosity should be sufficient to adequately illuminate the fairway or anchorage, even at night. The bracket measures 1,060 millimetres in width, 245 millimetres in height and 413 millimetres in length. The model is available either electropolished (article number 13291) or powder-coated (article number 13292). The scope of delivery includes a Power Control Unit (PCU), which can be used to set three pre-programmed light modes.

The Letech PCU makes it possible to switch quickly between different lighting situations. In the first mode, two spotlights shine with 11,420 lumens, in the second mode all four with full power of 22,840 lumens. The third mode only activates the position light. The housing of the control unit is made of anodised aluminium with a laser-engraved LETECH logo.

We particularly like the look of the additional lights. They are reminiscent of the company's off-road genes and look really good, as in the example on a Targa. But the bracket can also be mounted on other boats without any problems. As we looked at the product during the day, we cannot comment on the lighting properties of the lamps. However, the values speak for themselves and are convincing. Added to this is the company's experience. Nothing can really go wrong.

SF2 headlight bracket for larger boats

The SF2 headlamp bracket with six LED headlamps offers a total luminosity of 34,260 lumens. According to the manufacturer, the design is intended to ensure that the headlights remain securely in place even in rough seas. At 1,667 millimetres wide, 662 millimetres high and 398 millimetres long, the model is significantly larger than the S1. A special feature is the option of fitting a night vision camera, which can be integrated into the design. This model is also available in an electropolished or powder-coated finish.

Radar mast R2 for radar systems and antennas

The R2 radar mast from LETECH is used to mount radar systems, antennas and other nautical components. The design is based on a low construction with a robust design. The mast measures 2,246 millimetres in width, 1,624 millimetres in height and 2,494 millimetres in length. According to the manufacturer, the flat design is intended to give the boat a sporty look. We were able to take a look at both the radar mast and the headlight bracket at the Ancora Yacht Festival in Neustadt and can definitely confirm the sportier look. Like the headlight brackets, the radar mast is also available in electropolished and powder-coated versions.

Material and processing

All three products are made of marine aluminium, which is characterised by its resistance to corrosion in salt water. The electropolished version offers a shiny surface, while the powder-coated version is designed to provide additional protection against mechanical impact. Production takes place entirely at the Welzheim site in Baden-Württemberg. In other words, completely Made in Germany.
