Attwood Marine Frosted Globe All-Round Pole Light, 12V, 2 NM 360° Visibility, 9W, 2-Pin Locking Collar

Overview

The Attwood Marine 5110 Series Frosted Globe All-Round Light is an incandescent pole-mounted navigation light for 12V DC boat lighting systems, built around a 2-pin locking-collar connection and a frosted globe lens.

This range gives 360-degree all-round white light with 2 nautical mile visibility, making it suitable for many powerboats and sailboats that need a removable stern or anchor light pole. The frosted globe keeps the light appearance clean while the included 9-watt wedge-base lamp uses a common bulb style that is straightforward to replace.

The locking-collar pole fits a wide range of Attwood 2-pin straight or angled bases, and it can also serve as a replacement pole in some compatible 2-pin bases from other brands. Power must be 12V DC only, with a 1-amp fuse on the positive lighting wire for circuit protection.

Key features

• Incandescent all-round white navigation light with 360-degree visibility for anchoring, running light layouts, or stern light applications where this style is required.
• 2 nautical mile light visibility helps meet common small-boat navigation light needs when installed in the correct location.
• 12V DC operation with a 9-watt wedge-base lamp included.
• 2-pin locking-collar pole connection helps keep the light seated in the base while the boat is underway.
• Frosted globe lens gives the light a clean appearance without changing the all-round function.
• Aluminum pole construction keeps the pole lightweight and practical for removable light setups.
• Compatible with a range of Attwood 2-pin straight and angled bases, which helps when replacing an older pole light without changing the full base assembly.

Variants

This product is offered in multiple pole lengths, so the main difference across the range is the height of the removable pole. The available lengths are 24 inches, 30 inches, 36 inches, 42 inches, 48 inches, and 54 inches.

The same 2-pin locking-collar style, frosted globe light head, 12V DC electrical setup, and incandescent lamp format apply across the range. Pole length matters most when matching the light to the vessel layout, because the all-round light should sit high enough to remain visible through 360 degrees without being blocked by canvas, people, rails, outboards, or other equipment.

Installation and setup

Install the light where the globe has an unobstructed 360-degree view. For many boats, that means checking the height against the windshield, bimini frame, outboard cowling, rod holders, and any gear normally carried on the aft deck. When replacing an existing pole light, match or exceed the original pole height unless the boat layout has changed.

The pole inserts into a compatible 2-pin base, and the locking collar is tightened to secure it. Disconnect power before installation or service, and use 12V DC only. Higher voltage can damage the light and wiring.

Compatibility and fit

This 5110 Series range is a practical match for boat owners replacing a removable incandescent all-round pole light that uses a 2-pin locking-collar base. It is especially useful on runabouts, fishing boats, small cruisers, and sailboats where the light needs to be removable for storage, trailering, or low-clearance covers.

Before ordering, confirm the existing base type, pole length, and required light height on the boat. The pole length should support the visibility requirements for the vessel rather than simply matching the shortest available option.

Maintenance and care

Keep the globe, contacts, and base area clean so the light remains visible and the electrical connection stays solid. After saltwater use, rinse the exposed light and pole with fresh water, then let the connection area dry before storage. Check the wedge-base lamp during seasonal service and replace it when the filament, contacts, or light output show wear.
