Infinity Sky-Beam Searchlight — Quad Head
A tight, bright beam seen for real distance, not a legibility estimate — figures reflect our published reach for this power level. Talk to us about your exact site conditions for a precise read.
Own the beam everyone else rents
Most U.S. venues only rent a sky-beam searchlight, at $400–$1,000 a night, or pay $10,000–$50,000 for a legacy unit. The Infinity Sky-Beam Searchlight — Quad Head gives you that same premiere-night beam to own outright — at your top wattage (16kW), it's visible up to 15 miles away, so it typically pays for itself in about four nights of what you'd otherwise spend renting, then it's yours for years of events.
- Seen for miles, not just blocks. Up to 15 miles of visible reach at 16kW — a tight, bright column that pulls a crowd from across town.
- 3 free colors on every unit. White ships standard, plus your first 2 color wheels (red, green, blue or yellow) are free — add a 3rd to switch colors for different events or seasons, $188.88 each.
- Automatic 90° sweep + 60° tilt. A living, moving beam that sweeps the night sky — not a static spotlight.
- Ships in its own flightcase. Made to order in 60–75 days and built for touring, rental fleets, and repeat bookings.
- Weatherproof housing, real power confirmed upfront. Runs on 220V (or a generator for 5kW+) — we confirm your exact power setup before you order, so there are no surprises on event day.
Popular for grand openings, car dealerships, festivals, casinos, premieres, and any event that needs to be seen from the highway, not just the parking lot.

Infinity Sky-Beam Searchlight | Quad Head, 4 Synchronized Beams
Four beams, sixteen kilowatts, one base. This is the top of the range.
The Quad Head Sky-Beam Searchlight runs four synchronized beams from a single base — up to 16kW of total output sweeping across the night sky. From $9,088.
What it does — and what it does not
A sky-beam searchlight projects a brilliant column of colored light into the night sky. It creates attention and atmosphere at a scale nothing else does.
It does not project a logo, an image or words. That is a different product entirely — if you want your mark on a wall, a floor or a building, our gobo logo projectors do that. We would rather tell you now than have you open the crate expecting something else.
How far will it be seen?
Visibility is what you are really buying, and it scales with power.
| Power | Beam visible up to | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| 1kW – 2kW | About 3–5 miles | A single storefront, a grand opening, an open house |
| 3kW – 5kW | About 7–10 miles | Dealerships, festivals, clubs — pulling a crowd across a city |
| 6kW – 7kW | Approaching 10–15 miles | Large venues, casinos, major retail events |
| 10kW | About 10–15 miles | The flagship — stadiums, premieres, city-wide statements |
Figures are for a clear night; haze, cloud cover and heavy light pollution all shorten the range. When you are between two sizes, size up — nobody has ever regretted a beam that carried further than they needed.
When you actually need four
The quad head is not a bigger version of the single — it is a different product with a different job. Four beams from one base fill the sky rather than mark a point on it, and at 4 × 4kW the array is visible across an entire metropolitan area.
Be straight with yourself about the requirement. If the goal is for people to find your building, the Single Head at $2,788 does that. The quad is for when the light itself is the spectacle — a stadium opening, a casino launch, a city celebration, a premiere that has to look like one. If that is the job, nothing else in the range comes close.
The Triple Head sits just below it at $7,488.
The beam moves — that is the whole point
This is not a static spotlight pointed upward. Each head sweeps 90° horizontally and tilts 60°, automatically, so the beam scans the night sky in a slow, living arc.
That movement is what carries. A fixed column of light reads as a building feature; a sweeping one reads as something is happening here tonight, and it does it from miles away without a single word of copy.
Power: this is the one that catches people out
A searchlight does not plug into a wall outlet. Every other projector we sell does. This one does not, and it is the single thing most worth settling before you order.
- It runs on 110V or 220V — you choose which when you order.
- It connects through a 3-core industrial plug and socket on a 32A circuit, not a household socket.
- A generator at the event is assumed at this output. Talk to us about the supply before you order — this is not a unit to improvise power for.
None of this is difficult once you know it — but discovering it on the day of the event is expensive. Tell us your venue and we will confirm exactly what you need before you order.
Beam color
Choose red, green, blue or yellow when you order. All four heads carry the same color so the array reads as one designed effect.
How the color works: it comes from a physical color wheel inside the fixture, and each unit holds one standard wheel. It does not change color automatically and it is not switched from a remote — so pick the color for the effect you want. An additional beam color is available as a paid add-on if you want something outside the four standard choices — tell us the color before you order and we will price it.
Run time, bulb life and upkeep
Xenon lamps run hot, and honest numbers here save a lot of disappointment:
- Run for up to 4 hours continuously, then allow about 30 minutes of cooldown before restarting. Plan an all-night event around that cycle — in practice, very few events need a beam running continuously from dusk to dawn.
- The bulb is rated for 800 hours. When it reaches end of life you replace the bulb, not the fixture. Replacement cost scales with power, so a 1kW lamp costs considerably less than a 10kW one — tell us your model and we will quote the exact figure.
- Maintenance is minimal: keep the fan vents clear so the unit can shed heat. And a bright beam outdoors at night attracts insects — that is normal, not a fault.
Built for real outdoor events
IP55 rated — rain-resistant and dust-resistant, made for genuine outdoor event use. As with any outdoor electrical equipment, do not submerge it or run it through a severe storm.
Warranty: 1 year on the fixture — motor, housing and electronics — and 3 months on the bulb. Freight damage is not covered by the manufacturer warranty, so inspect the unit on arrival and photograph anything that looks wrong straight away, and we will help you file the claim.
Lead time: order early
Searchlights are made to order and ship by sea — they are far too heavy to fly. Plan on about 60 to 75 days from order to delivery.
We put that here rather than in the small print because it is the one thing that ruins searchlight plans. If you have a dated event — an opening, a premiere, an anniversary — tell us the date now, before anything else. Each unit ships in its own flightcase.
Buying versus renting
Renting a searchlight runs roughly $400 to $1,000 a night. At $9,088 for the 4 × 1kW, a quad head costs about what four rented units cost across two nights — and there is rarely a rental company that can supply four matched, synchronized beams at all.
After that it is yours — for every opening, every anniversary, every holiday weekend, with no booking, no availability problem on a busy date, and no rental company to depend on. It is also why dealerships, venues and rental companies buy rather than hire.
Where these get used
- Stadium and arena openings — a beam array over the whole ground.
- Casino and resort launches — visible across the metropolitan area.
- City celebrations and national days — the centerpiece, not the decoration.
- Film premieres — the four-beam array is the classic image.
- Flagship retail and automotive launches — once a year, unmissable.
- Top-tier rental fleets — a configuration most competitors cannot supply.

Frequently asked questions
Does it project my logo into the sky?
No. A searchlight projects a column of colored light — it does not project a logo, image or words. For a logo on a wall, floor or building, see our gobo projector range.
Can I plug it into a normal outlet?
No, and this is the one real difference from every other projector we sell. A searchlight runs on 110V or 220V — your choice at order — through a 3-core industrial plug on a 32A circuit. A generator at the event is assumed at this output. Talk to us about the supply before you order — this is not a unit to improvise power for. Tell us your venue and we will confirm the setup before you order.
How far away will the beam be seen?
Roughly 3–5 miles at 1–2kW, 7–10 miles at 3–5kW, and 10–15 miles at the top of the range — on a clear night. Haze, cloud and city light shorten it. When in doubt, size up.
Does the beam move?
Yes, automatically. Each head sweeps 90° horizontally and tilts 60°, so the beam scans the sky rather than standing still. That movement is what carries from a distance.
What colors can I have, and can I change it later?
Red, green, blue or yellow, chosen when you order. The color comes from a physical color wheel inside the fixture — one per unit — so it does not switch automatically and is not changed from a remote. An additional beam color is available as a paid add-on outside the four standard choices — tell us the color before you order and we will price it.
How long can I run it in one go?
Up to 4 hours continuously, then about 30 minutes of cooldown. Xenon lamps run hot and the cycle protects the bulb. Plan an all-night event around it — in practice few events need a beam running continuously until dawn.
How long does the bulb last?
800 hours. At end of life you replace the bulb, not the fixture. Cost scales with power, so a 1kW lamp is far cheaper than a 10kW one — send us your model for the exact figure.
Can it stay out in the rain?
It is IP55 — rain- and dust-resistant and built for outdoor events. Do not submerge it or run it through a severe storm.
How long does delivery take?
60 to 75 days. Searchlights are made to order and ship by sea — they are too heavy to fly. If you have a dated event, tell us the date before anything else so we can check the timing honestly.
Is buying better than renting?
Rental runs about $400–$1,000 a night. At $9,088 for the 4 × 1kW, a quad head costs about what four rented units cost across two nights — and there is rarely a rental company that can supply four matched, synchronized beams at all. If you run more than a handful of events, or you are a venue or a rental company, buying wins comfortably.
What maintenance does it need?
Very little — keep the fan vents clear so it can shed heat, and check them before each event. A bright beam outdoors also attracts insects at night; that is normal and not a fault.
What is the warranty?
1 year on the fixture — motor, housing and electronics — and 3 months on the bulb. Freight damage is not covered by the manufacturer, so inspect and photograph on arrival and we will help with the claim.
What's the projection revolution?
Most businesses advertise inside the space they already own. A searchlight does the opposite — it puts your location on the skyline of an entire city, using nothing but light, and it is visible to people who have never heard of you. Join The Projection Revolution ∞

Why customers choose Infinity
Thank you for all the help on getting this turned around so quick. It is a big hit here. Everyone loves having the name slit up and rotating. Don
My carpenter and his helper mounted the projector and, even with only a few hours of charging, it's working well and already garnering attention from pedestrians. It's evident that people are looking down more...
The official launch of the event was Friday. The event was great, everyone loved the projections. I went back up Saturday and took a few pics. Thank you for all your help with this project. Looking forward to...
