Common Concerns Answered
Why is the lumen output lower than some competitors?
The M6 Gen2 is engineered for a focused beam, prioritizing precise illumination of rigging over raw lumen output. This design minimizes light spill and glare, ensuring the targeted area is clearly lit, which is often more critical for rigging visibility than maximum brightness alone.
What if I want different color options for my vessel lighting?
While the M6 Gen2 focuses on the optimal warm white for rigging illumination, OceanLED offers other models with broader color selection capabilities. This specific unit prioritizes its intended application with a high-quality, dedicated warm white output.
Is this light suitable for very large rigging structures?
The M6 Gen2 provides significant brightness and a focused beam ideal for most standard rigging. For exceptionally expansive structures, users might consider the lumen output in comparison to the scale of their rigging to ensure desired coverage.
