The OceanLED Explore E6 represents the pinnacle of underwater LED lighting, combining cutting-edge optics, electronics, and design into a sleek, flush-mount form factor. Engineered for those who demand performance and style, the Explore E6 delivers an astonishing 11,000 fixture lumens (in Dual Colour) from a low-profile, Xchangeable Flush Mount body. This means the light cartridge can be conveniently removed from inside the hull without the need to haul out the vessel—a game-changing feature for boat owners seeking both power and serviceability.
Ideal for high-performance yachts and vessels, the Explore E6 is available in Single, Dual, or full RGBW Colours DMX configurations, offering vibrant illumination tailored to any marine environment. Its compact size and integrated internal driver allow for simplified installation in tight spaces, reducing the amount of internal hull clearance needed. In fact, it fits directly into the same 83mm (3.25”) cut-out used by previous OceanLED Allure 150/250 models, making it an excellent upgrade option for retrofits as well as new builds.
The Explore E6 features a new generation of advanced optics, designed in-house by OceanLED’s expert engineers. A sharply focused 20° side beam cuts through the water, forming a powerful blade of light that reaches greater depths and distances. Complementing this is a true 90° wide-angle surface beam that floods the surrounding water with illumination, creating breathtaking lighting effects without significant light loss. This combination of beam angles delivers unmatched underwater visibility and ambiance.
Installation has been made faster and more intuitive with features like the integrated clamping system, reducing labor time and complexity. Once installed, the ultra-low 4mm (0.16”) profile of the fixture’s face ensures minimal disruption to water flow, preserving hull performance and speed. Weighing just 1.25 kg (2.76 lbs), the Explore E6 maintains a robust yet lightweight footprint, with a total diameter of 105mm (4.13”), a body diameter of 80mm (3.15”), and a required internal clearance of just 100mm (3.93”).
The fixture is certified to IP69K—the highest standard for water ingress protection—exceeding the industry-standard IP68 rating for continuous submersion. This provides total peace of mind even in the most extreme marine conditions. The optional Explore Series Rear Enclosure Kit further enhances interior hull protection against accidental splashing or temporary submersion, making the Explore E6 not only powerful and efficient, but also highly secure.
Power and efficiency are at the core of this luminaire. It supports both DC (10–32V) and AC (100–240V) input ranges. In Dual Colour mode, current draw is 7.8A at 12V DC or 4.7A at 24V DC; in Colours DMX mode, the draw is slightly lower at 6.8A and 3.2A, respectively. For AC operation, Dual Colour draws 1,190mA at 110V or 570mA at 230V, while the Colours DMX version consumes 830mA at 110V and 400mA at 230V. All configurations feature an internal driver with reverse polarity protection.
Lighting control is versatile, with multiple options to suit user preferences. The Explore E6 can be controlled via a simple push-button switch, the OceanDMX RC Controller Kit for remote operation, or more advanced DMX control panels such as the OceanDMX TP or WTP Plus. Whether you're illuminating a party, enhancing underwater visibility, or showcasing your boat at night, the Explore E6 adapts seamlessly to your lighting needs.
Constructed from AB2 marine-grade aluminum bronze for the mounting tube and aluminum for the light body, the Explore E6 offers strength, corrosion resistance, and lasting durability. For vessel owners seeking a flush-mounted, high-output, low-profile underwater light that combines advanced optics, installation flexibility, and superior build quality, the OceanLED Explore E6 stands in a league of its own.
