IQ-LED 50W LED Floodlight IP65 - Black

The IQ-LED is a 50W LED floodlight that pushes out 6000 lumens of crisp 4000K neutral white light across a wide 100 degree beam. Running at 120 lm/W, it gives a broad, even wash rather than a tight spot, which suits open areas where you want one fitting to cover plenty of ground. Buyers in the US will recognise this style of fitting as an LED flood or security floodlight, sitting at the everyday end of the outdoor floodlight scale.

Around 6000 lumens at neutral white is well matched to driveways, side returns, yards, car parking bays and the rear of a property, where the 100 degree spread throws light wide rather than far. As a guide on what it replaces, an old halogen floodlight runs at roughly 20 lumens per watt, so this 6000 lumen LED stands in for around a 300W halogen flood while drawing a fraction of the power. Mounted at typical wall or eaves height and angled down, the beam covers an approach path or a working area without leaving harsh dark edges, making it a practical choice for security and task lighting outdoors.

The body is metal in a black finish, rated IP65 so it copes with exposed positions, driving rain and wet locations. It mounts to a wall or ceiling via the adjustable bracket, letting you set the throw angle once it is fixed, and runs straight from a 220-240V AC mains supply. The fitting is not dimmable, with an integrated LED rated to 50,000 hours and a colour rendering of Ra 80. The IQ-LED range includes other wattages if you need more or less output for a given area.

How bright is it and what halogen floodlight does it replace?

It delivers 6000 lumens of 4000K neutral white light from 50W. An old halogen floodlight produces around 20 lumens per watt, so this LED stands in for roughly a 300W halogen flood while using far less energy.

Can it be used outdoors in wet weather?

Yes. The IQ-LED is rated IP65, which means it is protected against dust and water jets from any direction. It is suitable for fully exposed outdoor positions, including driving rain and other wet locations.

How wide an area does it cover?

The 100 degree beam angle gives a broad, even spread rather than a narrow throw, so it washes light across a wide area such as a driveway, yard or car parking bay. Mounting it higher and angling it down increases the ground it covers.

How do I clean and maintain it?

Wipe the front lens and metal body with a soft damp cloth once the fitting is switched off and cool, avoiding harsh solvents that could mark the finish. Keeping the lens clear of dirt and cobwebs helps maintain the full 6000 lumen output.
