Product Information

Full details

The Auraglow Tall Outdoor Garden Spike Light is designed for homeowners and landscapers seeking to elevate their garden aesthetics by highlighting paths, flowerbeds, and driveways with a clean, modern aesthetic. Its standout feature is its adjustable height, allowing it to stand up to 92cm above ground to cast light over taller foliage or lower for subtle accents, though users should note it requires a direct 240V mains connection, which may necessitate professional installation for those without existing outdoor power infrastructure.

FAQs

Can I use a smart GU10 bulb with this fitting?

Yes, as long as the smart bulb fits the dimensions of the housing and is rated for outdoor use, you can replace the supplied bulb.

Is the light dimmable?

The supplied bulb is not dimmable, but the fixture itself can be used with dimmable bulbs provided you have a compatible dimmer switch on your circuit.

How deep should the spike be buried?

The spike should be buried deep enough to provide stability for the pole height, usually about 15-20cm, depending on soil firmness.

What does IP65 mean?

IP65 means the light is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets from any angle, making it safe for year-round outdoor use.

Does it come with a plug?

It comes with a cable and IP68 connector for direct connection to a mains circuit; it is not typically supplied with a 3-pin plug for indoor sockets.

Can I replace the cable if it gets damaged?

The cable is a standard 3-core outdoor rubber cable; however, internal repairs should be performed by a qualified electrician to maintain the IP rating.

Troubleshooting

Light fails to illuminate

Check the mains power supply, ensure the IP68 connector is securely tightened, and verify that the GU10 bulb is correctly seated.

Water visible inside the diffuser

Power off the unit, open the head, and ensure the rubber seal is clean and properly aligned before tightening the housing back down.

Light flickers

This is often caused by a loose connection at the bulb terminal; ensure the GU10 base is locked into the socket.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Tall design perfect for illuminating over taller border plants
  • Sturdy die-cast aluminium build resists corrosion
  • Standard GU10 base allows for easy future bulb upgrades
  • IP65 rating provides high confidence in wet weather resistance

Cons

  • Requires 240V mains wiring which is less flexible than solar options
  • Fixed downward beam may not be suitable for wide-area wash lighting
  • 6500K Cool White light is very bright and may feel clinical to some users

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation involves securing the spike into soft ground or a prepared garden bed. The fitting includes a 100cm 3-core rubber outdoor cable with an IP68 connector, designed for a watertight link to your existing 240V garden power mains. Ensure your power source is RCD protected. To care for the fixture, periodically wipe the glass diffuser with a damp cloth to remove debris or salt buildup. Since the unit uses a standard GU10 bulb, ensure you replace it with a bulb of similar wattage and dimensions to maintain the waterproof seal. Always switch off power at the mains before performing any maintenance or changing the bulb.
