Product Spotlight – NightSearcher HawkStar and HawkStar X
High-Powered, Dual-Purpose Searchlights and Flood Lights
The NightSearcher HawkStar and HawkStar X are a pair of powerful, professional, and versatile LED searchlights that are implicitly designed for use by the emergency services.
Equipped with high-output LEDs and specially designed optics and reflectors, the HawkStar searchlights allow for both flood beam and spot beam selection - making them ideal for long-distance searching and floodlighting wider areas.
Product Features
One of the primary benefits of the HawkStar searchlights is their sheer high brightness for compact handheld devices. Utilising the latest in LED and lithium battery technologies, both the HawkStar and HawkStar X provide an incredibly bright and powerful beam of light. The HawkStar projects a 2,500 lumens beam at full power, covering a distance up to 400 metres, whereas the HawkStar X projects a 4,200 lumens, 600 metres beam, thanks to its more powerful battery.
In addition to being super-bright search lights, both models have been engineered to offer superior battery runtimes too, allowing for extended use in the field. As rechargeable LED searchlights, the HawkStar models charge from within their cradle – when connected to either a 12v vehicle charger (supplied) or an AC mains charger (optional extra). The built-in battery status indicator allows for the quick identification of the current and remaining battery life with a succession of colour-coded LEDs.

Selectable Light Modes
The HawkStar searchlights also offer a range of brightness levels and a dimmable light mode, making them adaptable to a variety of lighting needs. The wide-angle flood beam and the narrow angle search beams allow users to choose the best setting for the task at hand, whilst the integrated adjustable stand makes it easy to position the HawkStar in a variety of locations. This floodlight mode enables personnel to ‘paint’ a scene with light – perfect for rescue operations, or to illuminate an accident or scene of crime as a first responder.
Ease of Use
Another benefit of the HawkStar searchlights is their ease of use and storage. The searchlights come with a secure-fit cradle that allows for easy vehicle storage. This makes them quick and easy to deploy when required. Their single button operation is simple to understand and use, it enables the selection of all lighting modes and brightness settings at the push of a button. In addition, the searchlights are extremely lightweight for their size and power, so they’re easy to carry and use in a variety of locations.
Crash Tested
Further to their versatility and brightness, the HawkStar searchlights are also incredibly durable. The searchlight and cradle assembly have been crash tested at 70MPH (112KPH) and passed the tests by the Institute of Traffic Accident Investigators with no damage. This makes the HawkStar a reliable choice for emergency situations where durability is critical.
