Description
A hood over the top of the round face gives this one its name and its manner: light is pushed down and forward, and the LED behind it stays out of your eyeline as you pass. The face is 80mm across, in an anthracite finish that reads as dark grey against brick and render. The LED is integrated, running at 3W in a warm white, with the driver supplied and no dimming to arrange.
It suits places where you want to see the ground rather than the fitting: steps up to a front door, a garden path, a boundary wall, the side of a porch. Sealed against rain and hose spray, it is fine on an exposed elevation as well as tucked under a soffit. The warm white keeps stone and timber looking friendly rather than clinical, and the modest output means several can be spaced along a wall without glare. We would fit them in pairs either side of a door.
The body is compact and recessed, with an earthed connection, and it carries a three year warranty. Outdoors, what dulls a small light like this is grime on the face, so give it a wipe with a damp cloth each season, power off first, and clear any cobwebs from beneath the hood. The eyelid face is also offered in sand black and sand white, and there are square eyelid versions if straight edges suit your brickwork better; the angled round and square heads sit in the same range for a more open spread of light.

Frequently Asked
How much light does it give out?
Around 210 lumens at 3000K warm white, from a 3W integrated LED. It is intended for marking and grazing rather than lighting a whole area, so plan on several along a path or wall.
What size aperture does it need?
The cut out is 72mm, with an overall face diameter of 80mm and a depth of 85mm behind.
Can I put it on a dimmer?
No. It is non-dimmable, so switch it on a plain circuit or a timer rather than a trailing edge dimmer.
Do I need to buy a driver or a lamp?
Neither. The driver comes with it and the LED is built in, so there is nothing further to order.
Is it suitable for a fully exposed wall?
Yes. It is rated IP65, which covers driving rain and washing down with a hose, so it does not need the shelter of a canopy.
How long should the LED last?
It is rated at 30,000 hours average life, with a colour rendering index above 80.
