10W IP65 CCT Adjustable Floodlight - Black

This floodlight puts a 10W LED behind a frosted diffuser panel set into a black housing, so the light leaves as a broad wash rather than a single hot point. The LED is built in, so there is no cap to match and no lamp to change later. Colour temperature is adjustable rather than fixed, which means you choose the white tone instead of it being decided at the factory. It carries an IP65 rating: dust tight, and protected against water jets from any direction.

Floodlights of this size earn their keep at the scale of a doorway, a side passage, a bin store or a short drive rather than a whole yard. The bracket bolts through both sides of the housing, so the head tilts and locks at the angle you want once the fixing plate is on the wall or under a soffit. A cable gland at the base brings the supply in from below, which keeps the entry point out of the weather. Black suits brick, render and dark timber, and the body is a plain rectangle with no decoration to date it.

Adjustable colour temperature is the reason to pick this over a fixed white floodlight. A warmer setting keeps a patio or a seating area comfortable to sit under, while a cooler, bluer setting gives better contrast on a drive or a gate where you want to see detail clearly. The manufacturer does not print the available settings, a lumen figure or a beam angle, so check those against your plans if a specific output matters. Nothing about dimming is printed either, so wire it on a plain switched supply. It is sold singly, with a minimum order of one.

Can I use this outdoors on an exposed wall?

Yes. The IP65 rating means the housing is dust tight and stands up to water jets from any direction, so an open wall, a gable or a soffit is fine.

What does CCT adjustable actually mean?

It means the white tone is selectable rather than fixed, so one fitting can give a warmer white over a patio or a crisper, cooler white over a drive. The manufacturer does not print which settings are offered.

Does it take a replacement bulb?

No. The LED is integrated behind the diffuser, so there is no cap to match and no lamp to source; at the end of its life the whole fitting is replaced rather than relamped.

Is it dimmable?

No dimming information is printed by the manufacturer, so we would plan the circuit on a plain switched supply rather than assume a trailing edge dimmer will hold it steady.

How much light does 10W give?

No lumen figure is printed. At 10W this sits at the small end of the floodlight range, which suits a doorway, a bin store or a short drive better than a full yard.

How is it fixed, and can I angle the beam?

It mounts on a bracket that bolts through both sides of the housing, so once the plate is fixed you tilt the head to the angle you want and tighten the bolts.
