Portable searchlights offer an easy way to draw a crowd to your car dealership, restaurant, theatre, festival, or special event. Boston Light & Sound now offers the Lighthouse 4000 searchlight for sale or rent. These compact, commercial-grade devices emit high-intensity moving light beams that are visible up to four miles away. You can also use the searchlight in stationary mode to illuminate a structure brilliantly.

Setup

The Lighthouse 4000 is easy to set up. Available for pickup at our Boston facility, it fits nicely into most standard-size cars or trucks. The searchlight runs at 2,000-watts on standard 20 amp, 120v power so there’s no need to rent a generator or hire an electrician. Or you can produce 4,000 watts of lamp power plugging it into a standard 30 amp or larger 240v outlet such as a dryer or range outlet.
