CF Floodlight?
I'm looking for a nice floodlight to go on the wall over my new decking
area but a cheapo security light would be too bright and uneconomical to run for long periods. There are small CF floodlights at screwfix and other places but they are a bit underpowered with only one 9W lamp. NB.It must be 'Dark Skies' friendly. This one is the nearest I've found but the mounting looks odd (it is a 'sign' light so may not pivot downwards in the way I want... http://www.nextdaylighting.com/ItmDtls.asp?ItmCd=125395 Advice appreciated, Mike. |

I use several of them and the light is well contained. The bracket shown is probably the one designed to be screwed onto the threaded end of a 20mm conduit, sticking out of the wall. I've done that too and it works very well. Colin Bignell |
