A rugged, CCT-selectable LED area light with photocell for dusk-to-dawn outdoor security, ideal for walls, parking lots, and building perimeters.
The Nuvo Lighting 65-683 Area Light is built for all-weather performance with a die-cast aluminum housing and impact-resistant lens. Its IP65 rating means it stands up to rain, snow, and dust. The integrated Color Quick selectable technology lets you choose your color temperature on the spot, while the Type V lens provides even, omnidirectional light distribution. A built-in photocell enables automatic dusk-to-dawn operation, with an optional shorting cap to override it. Mount directly to a wall or use an optional arm (sold separately).
Best for
- Outdoor walls, garages, and building perimeters needing bright, wide-area security lighting
- Parking lots, driveways, and pathways where dusk-to-dawn operation is desired
- Commercial or residential spaces requiring a durable, wet-rated fixture
- Areas where adjustable color temperature (CCT) is needed to match existing lighting
- Installations with 120-277V supply voltage
Not ideal for
- Indoor-only applications where an IP65 rating is unnecessary
- Spaces needing a decorative or accent light rather than a utilitarian flood/area light
- Installations where a mounting arm is required but not purchased separately
How bright is it?
60W integrated LED delivering ultra-bright output — equivalent to roughly a 150W incandescent floodlight. The exact lumen output is not specified by the manufacturer, but this is designed to illuminate large outdoor areas effectively.
Light color and feel
CCT Selectable technology allows you to choose from multiple color temperatures (likely 3000K, 4000K, 5000K) at installation. This means you can set a warm white for a cozy feel, a cool white for a crisp look, or daylight for maximum visibility. The Type V distribution ensures light spreads evenly in all directions.
