Key Features & Benefits
- 1,250-lumen combined output — the Spot/Flood mode delivers maximum brightness by engaging both the spot and flood LEDs simultaneously, lighting up large areas at close range while maintaining a long throw.
- 640-metre beam distance — the dedicated Spot mode projects a focused beam over 700 yards, useful for surveying large sites, illuminating distant structures or signalling at night.
- Four selectable modes — Spot (600 lm) for distance, Flood (1,000 lm) for close-range area coverage, Spot/Flood (1,250 lm) for maximum output, and Strobe for emergency signalling.
- 90° pivoting head — tilt the light from horizontal to straight down, adapting to overhead work, ground-level tasks or handheld searchlight duties.
- XPT Extreme Protection Technology — engineered with protective seals and channels to direct dust and water away from internal components for operation in harsh conditions.
- 8.5-hour runtime in Spot mode — paired with a 5.0Ah 18V LXT battery, the efficient LED driver provides extended runtime for night shifts and long outdoor sessions.
- Compact ergonomic design — at 1.6 kg bare weight, it is easy to carry one-handed and fits in a standard tool bag alongside your other 18V LXT tools.
When to Use This Searchlight
The DML812 is built for outdoor and large-area applications where ordinary torches lack the throw and output. Ideal for site supervisors surveying construction zones at dusk, emergency workers needing high-visibility signalling, and trades working on outdoor installations after dark. Choose this over standard Makita torches when you need serious beam distance and the ability to switch between spot and flood illumination.
