Night Recon should be equipped on the largest seaplane slot available, it increases the chances of triggering night contact. However, it has reduced chance of performing artillery spotting attacks, compared with other seaplanes.

Searchlight should be equipped on flagship, due to flagship protection mechanic (shot meant for flagship is redirected to another ship and may do less damage or miss altogether).

Starshell can be equipped on any ship. DDs are perfect for carrying it, as they cannot perform artillery spotting attacks.

Skilled Lookouts almost ensures night cut-in on moderate/high luck ships, while giving a fair night cut-in trigger chance on low luck ships.

Spreading the night equips may improve the triggering chances, as well as not "overburdening" a single ship by allowing artillery spotting attacks.
