Description
Small, deep-set and quietly practical, this outdoor light puts a warm pool of light exactly where you point it. The head adjusts, so the beam can be tipped down a wall or angled across a path. Behind the front glass sits a replaceable 12W LED lamp on a GX53 socket, which gives it the flat, even face of a downlight rather than the look of a lantern. It is dimmable, given a suitable dimmer on the circuit.
At around 90mm across it takes up very little wall, which makes it useful either side of a front door, above a side gate, along a run of garden wall, or over the steps to a terrace. It is sealed against rain and dust, so it copes with an exposed elevation as happily as a sheltered porch. We would use a pair at door height and a third further along a path, where one fitting on its own would leave a dark gap. The warm tone flatters brick, render and timber, and keeps well away from the blue-white glare people associate with security floods.
The body is dark grey with a matt finish that hides rain marks and holds its colour in sun and salt air. Keep it in good order by switching off, letting it cool and wiping the lens and outer rim with a damp cloth now and then, so grit and cobwebs do not gather around the seal. It carries a two year warranty. We stock the same fitting in black, white and rust brown, in cooler light tones as well as this warm one, and in a version supplied without a lamp for anyone who prefers to choose their own. The LED lamp is included here.

Frequently Asked
What colour is the light output?
It is warm white, at 3000K, which reads soft and slightly golden against brick and render. The same fitting is also offered in 2700K and 4000K.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, but only with a compatible dimmer on the circuit. No dimmer is supplied with the light.
Is the lamp replaceable?
Yes. It takes a GX53 LED lamp rated up to 12W, and one is supplied with the fitting, so the light can be renewed later without changing the whole unit.
How big is it?
It measures 90mm across the face and projects 105mm, so it sits neatly on a narrow pier or beside a door frame.
Will it stand up to a fully exposed wall?
It is IP65 rated, so it is protected against dust and water jets and is suited to walls with no shelter from rain.
How should it be cleaned?
Switch off and let it cool, then wipe the glass and the outer rim with a damp cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive pads, which will dull the matt finish.
