Groundlighter

 is a robust cast-brass 12v recessed light 

designed for uplighting smaller trees or statues and other 
features in waterlogged lawns and other wet locations. It is 
available with a plain rim and flush lens which sheds water and 
leaf litter for reduced maintenance, or with a protective grill for 
use in walkover areas to protect against a hot lens unless a low 
energy l.e.d. lamp is used. Cast brass construction is corrosion 
proof for use in all soil types and finished in a fine sandblasted 
finish which typically weathers to an ochre colour after a few 
weeks. 

Groundlighter

 has a 6m rubber cable and adjustable 

lampholder bracket allowing focusing of a 75w AR111 metal 

0

reflector halogen lamp.at up to 20  from vertical. The optional 

E8960MR

 converter assembly allows use of MR16 lamps up to 

50w, including the new 50w 

Powersavers

 which are equivalent 

to ordinary 75 watt halogen lamps; use of MR16 lamps permits 
use of a wide range of accessories, including MR16 colour 
filters and E4002 glare louvre. 

Lighting suggestions are for general guidance, subject to branch/ 
canopy structure & foliage density, colour and translucence. Look up 
through the tree - if you can see through the branches, then light will 
penetrate the canopy and structure as well. If not, position lights 
outside the canopy and adjusting the lamp angle to uplight the tree 
externally. Lighting trees is a black art: test the position of uplights with 
a temporary wiring set-up to determine correct position before final 
installation: Perception of brightness may vary between individuals.
