Long Life Lamp Company2 x GU10 Outdoor Garden Spike Ground Mount or Wall Lights IP65 Matt Black

These lights are great for the garden and produce a lovely light display without lighting up the whole garden. Easy to install, you do need to supply your own armoured cabling to connect to your own junction box then to the mains, which I have connected the lights to a timed switch. I used a 4watt led GU10 bulb, 65000k, cool white bulb in each light, easy to fit the bulb. The actual spiked light seems very well made with decent seals for weather proofing, it is rated IP67, very good rating for out door use, and a metal spike.This light looks like it will last for years

I recently purchased two resin/marble life-size female statues for my terrace, and with the dark nights upon us wanted some inexpensive spot lighting to show up each of the rather lovely ladies - a Grecian Courtesan and a Roman Goddess.Being only 4watts each these two spotlights were certainly inexpensive to run and illuminated the statues better than what I expected. As others have stated it is a bit fiddly inserting the bulbs, but I found a bit of extra pressure had them slotting into place. You don't have to be afraid of breaking them!The lamp is well made and the spike the right size for the ground. Well satisfied.

They are bigger than expected, but seem very sturdy. I am using them inside to light up 2 large house plants and they look fantastic. I particularly like the fact that you can choose the bulb, meaning you can go for either warm or cool lighting.These are cheaper than buying them via a electrical trade supplier. Am very pleased them and would order again.

Well made and quick delivery "So why only three stars?"All round these are a well constructed, and robust lights, but; don't you just hate it when there's a "but" after connecting these lights to my outside socket newly installed as well "Bang" the house RCD unit tripped.What followed was 2 hours of checking everything; starting with the new socket then the plug, next the junction boxes, then finally the lights themselves. After disconnecting the second light the RCD stopped tripping out.Which then left me with a dilemma, do I return the faulty light which would set the job back god knows how long, or strip the lamp to find the fault and risk invalidating any warranty.It did not take long to find the fault; these lamps are metal cased, and therefore must be earthed, and because they are designed to work with halogen bulbs which get really hot the two wires leading away from the ceramic holder are heat resistant. Where these then connect to the external wire leading out of the back of the unit; the wires are joined by the wire casing being stripped back on both types of wire, and then twisted together over which a conical shaped holder is screwed onto, theoretically holding and isolating the wires, unfortunately on the live they had left a strand of wire protruding, and this was touching the outer case " Thank god for earth wires, and British standards" This was a potentially lethal fault.Now I am willing to believe this is a rare incident but I would urge you to make sure that ALL earth wires are fitted before switching these units on!Would I buy again? These are good units shame one was let down by such bad workmanship, I do need two more at the moment I am in two minds 50/50Update 01/01/2018Purchased two more 6 months age both perfect all still working with 5 WATT LED's FITTED so increased from 3 to 4 star rating

I bought these spotlights to replace one and add more. The quality is much better than those I had previously purchased from an established online electrical supplier. The pricing makes them good value. Although agreeing with other reviewers that the bulb fitting can be fiddley, if you are able to obtain a small rubber/plastic accessory available in some GU10 light fittings, that would make fitting the bulb easier but would still require some gentle pressure to turn it. The only adverse comment was that the screw thread on one of the spikes was damaged but I overcame the problem by using the spike from an old spotlight, saving the inconvenience of returning it.

Bought these as they looked okay, but what a surprise. Nice aluminum construction and easy to assemble. The mains lead is a bit short, but then whatever length of cable that was attached would be too short or too long for someone. I replaced it with some cable I bought from Wickes and it was a nice, straightforward job. Have just ordered another two.NOTE: Mine came with 25w lamps but for whatever reason I was expecting 50w. For me, the 25w are better as they give a lovely pool of light without being distracting.

I was so impressed with these i bought two further sets, Give off great light and so far seem very durable (even after heavy rain there's no sign of moisture within the unit. Just be aware you need to spend money on connectors and outdoor cable, plugs and possibly timers which can add considerable cost to the project.

Paint flakes after a year. Shame as the look good
