Press Release Body: Kemp, TX, April 4, 2008 - Kemp, TX -- National statistics report
that boating accidents due to collisions in rising dramatically. The boundaries of
lakes, rivers and other waterways are changing as global warming's impact continues.
While some lakes with historically high natural levels are down dramatically, others
are at record highs. Boaters unfamiliar with these changes experience expensive boat
and propeller damage encountering logs, stumps, rocks and other unmovable objects
that are just below the surface. These collisions can strand boaters and/or cause
injury to boaters during the incident. Golight spotlights for boats and various high
powered high intensity discharge (HID) lights can really aid boaters in keeping
themselves and their families safe.

"There are fundamental issues with light and water," stated Rob Bresnahan, President
of Larson Electronics. "Obviously, a broad flood light will enable you to see the
best. Think of the flood light in your backyard, it can illuminate a large area.
However, when you introduce flood lights into a marine environment, you get a
phenomenon known as 'casting.' Casting is caused by the humidity in the air
dispersing the flood light. Once the light is dispersed, the human eye can no longer
focus on objects at distances beyond this curtain of dispersed light. In effect,
flood lights make visibility worse. Instead a more focused spotlight is effective.
The narrower, brighter beam cuts through the humid air and aids the eye at seeing
objects at distance."

The challenge with spotlights is that they only point at a single area in the
distance. Life being what it is, the spot the light is focused on is rarely the one
where the rock, tree or other obstacle is. Golight spotlights are motorized lights
that pan and tilt via a 4 button remote control. The boat operator positions the
light beam where needed, scanning back and forth to investigate their path ahead.
Being able to position the spotlight brings the best of both worlds together,
eliminating issues with casting, while enabling the operator to effectively discern
issues anywhere near the vessel."

Rob continued, "Golight spotlights are often installed by boat manufacturers, since
they really want to address functional and safety concerns. For the aftermarket and
boat builders, we sell a large variety of Golight spotlights on www.magnalight.com
including permanent mount spotlights, magnetic mount spotlights, and the popular
Perko post mount spotlights with red and green running lights affixed. We also offer
a BC-1 rail mount solution, so that boaters can attach the lights as far forward on
the boat as possible, eliminating all casting and improving the reach and
effectiveness of the spot beam."
