Best for
- Outdoor steps and staircases, mounted flush to the riser or side wall for safe navigation
- Walkways and pathways, spaced every 6-8 ft for even illumination
- Patio and deck perimeters, accenting seating areas or planters
- Entryways and doorways, providing a warm welcome and added security
- Low-voltage landscape lighting systems, paired with a compatible transformer
Not ideal for
- Indoor-only applications where a standard voltage fixture is preferred
- Spaces requiring high brightness as a primary light source (300 lumens is accent-level)
- Installations without a low-voltage transformer (12V required)
How bright is it?
300 lumens - about as bright as a 25W incandescent bulb, ideal for accent and safety lighting along steps and pathways, not as a primary area light.

2700K warm white - a soft, golden tone similar to traditional incandescent lighting. Creates a welcoming ambiance for outdoor spaces. With a CRI of 90, colors appear vibrant and natural. Dimmable when used with an MLV dimmer on the transformer primary.
Sizing and fit
The fixture measures 8 inches wide by 3 inches high by 1 inch deep, with a 1-inch extension from the wall. It mounts flush to the surface, making it ideal for tight spaces like stair risers. Suitable for wet locations, it can withstand direct rain or sprinklers.
