Acete 10W Colour Selectable LED Floodlight IP65 - Grey

The Acete is a compact LED floodlight running 10W from a 220-240V AC mains supply, with a wide 90 degree beam that spreads light across the area in front of it rather than aiming a tight spot. It is colour selectable across three tones, switching between 3000K warm white, 4000K neutral white and 6500K daylight, with luminous flux of 860, 1080 and 970 lumens respectively depending on the chosen setting. American buyers searching for an outdoor LED flood light will recognise the same compact form here, sized for door surrounds and small exterior walls rather than large yards.

This wattage suits close-range tasks such as lighting a doorway, a side passage, a shed entrance or a short stretch of fence or wall. The broad 90 degree beam washes a nearby surface evenly, so it works best mounted a short distance from what it lights rather than throwing far across an open space. As a guide to its output, an old halogen floodlight produced roughly 20 lumens per watt, so this fitting at around 1080 lumens does the work of a small halogen unit of about 50W while drawing only 10W. For wider coverage or longer throw, higher-wattage models sit alongside this one in the Acete range.

Built from aluminium alloy with a grey finish, the housing is rated IP65, so it is sealed against dust and water jets and holds up to full outdoor exposure and wet locations. It carries a rated lifespan of 25,000 hours and weighs just 208 g, light enough for straightforward fixing to a wall or ceiling via its bracket. The colour temperature is set on the fitting itself, and this model is not dimmable. The Acete range covers a span of wattages in the same weatherproof grey body for matching exterior schemes.

How bright is the Acete 10W floodlight?

It delivers up to 1080 lumens at its 4000K neutral white setting, with 860 lumens on the 3000K warm tone and 970 lumens on the 6500K daylight tone. This makes it well suited to lighting a doorway, entrance or short run of wall at close range rather than a large open area.

What old halogen wattage does it replace?

An old halogen floodlight produced around 20 lumens per watt, so at roughly 1080 lumens this LED does the work of a small halogen unit of about 50W. It does this while drawing just 10W, which cuts running costs considerably over its 25,000 hour life.

Can it be used outdoors in wet weather?

Yes. The Acete is rated IP65, meaning it is fully sealed against dust and protected against water jets, so it can be mounted in exposed outdoor and wet locations. It is built from aluminium alloy with a weatherproof grey finish.

How do I keep it clean?

Wipe the front glass and housing with a soft damp cloth when the unit is switched off and cool, then dry it to avoid water marks. Avoid solvents or abrasive cleaners on the lens, as a clear glass keeps the beam spreading evenly across the surface you are lighting.
