When it’s right, it’s the signature of good quality design. Uncontrolled LED’s emit a straight beam so, if the floodlight isn’t designed to control and distribute the light evenly, the floodlight will have a spotlight-like effect when what people want is a wide even spread of light. A quick check is to keep a lookout for lenses over the diodes, as that’s a sure tip that the designer has considered light beams and angles. Where you have a big area to illuminate, choose LED floodlights with arrays designed specifically to provide the ‘really wide’ beam you may need. It is an option we now offer across our ranges, including the LED-X rust-resistant models. Rust-free good looks Rust-resistance is crucial for keeping good looks and avoiding the telltale sign of unsightly running marks often seen down the wall. Even though most LED floodlights are now made primarily of polycarbonate, the brackets are normally always mild steel that will corrode and rust. That’s why we designed the rust- resistant range, ideal for coastal areas or installation in damper places with every single metallic component, including the bracket manufactured from rust-resistant 316 stainless steel – even down to the
screws on the PCB board. When we designed the rust-resistant floodlight range, we also took the opportunity to devise an optional pan and tilt bracket that allows for the floodlight to be panned sideways (left and right) and then vertically by the floodlight fitting itself for precise and accurate area illumination. The not-so-basic bulkheads Demand for good old bulkheads that sit flush to the wall never falters, but there’s no reason for them to be left behind in the quality and design stakes. We continue to improve on them and, while we still offer retro, die-cast models, our LED88 polycarbonate versions with and without PIR’s seem to be a market favourite. Easy to install, easy to use and easy on the eye. Small is beautiful When we first introduced the revolutionary design of the ultra-compact Nighteye range, with both single-headed and twin-headed versions, it was widely seen that the single units are hardly bigger than a man’s hand – wow! “Could they do the job”, you ask? Well, they certainly could and they’ve proved that they also last the course and give years and years of service. The next step was
an evolution, incorporating the PIR detector within the main housing in the EVO range so that the detectors are ‘hidden’ but still offer easy to set time and lux control settings. With single and twin floodlight options in black or white, they look great and they do a great job. We rest our case. You might want to keep a small stock of lower-volume lines like extra high- power floods, die-cast bulkheads, step lights etc. in the van. Alternatively, all can be supplied from stock and it can be shipped to your wholesaler quickly from our London warehouse.
