Description
The Arcane Square is a 90mm wall-mounted LED spotlight with a single 7W integrated LED module, housed in a powder-coated black aluminium body with a tiltable square head and glass diffuser. The 4000K LED output delivers neutral white light at approximately 630 lumens, suited to highlighting architectural features, garden paths, or building facades without the warmer yellow cast of 3000K or the cooler blue tone of 5000K.
Designed for external wall mounting on residential or commercial properties, the spotlight carries an IP54 rating making it suitable for exposed outdoor use in UK weather conditions. The tiltable head adjusts vertically through approximately 90 degrees, allowing the beam to be directed upward onto a wall surface for wash lighting, downward onto a pathway or planting bed, or angled outward to graze across textured surfaces. The 90mm square backplate fixes to standard exterior masonry or cladding using concealed fixings behind the plate.
The powder-coated aluminium construction resists corrosion from moisture and UV exposure better than painted steel or bare aluminium finishes. The matte black surface absorbs light rather than reflecting it, keeping the fitting itself visually recessive against dark walls and reducing glare from the fixture body during evening use. The square profile of both the backplate and lamp head gives a more architectural appearance than cylindrical spotlights, pairing well with contemporary facades and modern garden design schemes.
The integrated LED is non-replaceable and rated for approximately 25,000 hours of operation, which translates to around 6-7 years of typical evening-only use. The fitting is not dimmable and operates on 220-240V mains supply with internal driver circuitry housed in the backplate. Installation requires connection to exterior mains wiring via a weatherproof junction box or direct feed through the wall.

Frequently Asked
What does the IP54 rating mean for outdoor use?
IP54 means the fitting is protected against dust ingress and splashing water from any direction. It is suitable for external wall mounting in typical UK weather but should not be placed where it will be submerged or subject to direct high-pressure water jets.
Can the LED be replaced when it fails?
No. The LED is integrated into the fitting and non-replaceable. The module is rated for approximately 25,000 hours, which is 6-7 years of typical evening-only use. When the LED reaches end-of-life the entire fitting is replaced.
What beam angle does the spotlight produce?
Ideal Lux does not publish the beam angle for the Arcane Square in the specification sheet. Based on the square glass diffuser and compact 90mm head, the beam is likely in the 40-60 degree range, giving a moderately wide wash rather than a narrow spot.
Can it be used to light a pathway?
Yes. The tiltable head can be angled downward to direct the 7W output onto a path or steps. For pathway lighting the fitting is typically mounted 600-900mm above ground level and angled to avoid direct glare into the eyes of anyone walking towards it.
