An IP65 outdoor spotlight can therefore be installed outside, in the rain or near a watered area, but it must not be immersed: for a pool, a higher rating is required. The IP65 outdoor spotlights in the collection share this level, so it is up to you to choose the shape and orientation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan an IP65 outdoor spotlight stay outside all year round?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, that is exactly what it is for. Watertightness relies on three elements: the closing gasket, the cable gland where the cable enters, and water drainage. A fitting that is not properly closed or whose gasket has hardened lets moisture in. Check the gasket once a year, especially after winter, and refit the spotlight without forcing the screws.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIn which areas should an IP65 outdoor spotlight be installed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a terrace, a path, a facade wall, a low wall, a garden shed or around a swimming pool outside the immersion zone.

Watertightness comes from the fitting, not the bulb: it is the IP65 rating of the spotlight that protects the assembly. Choose a bulb with the right colour temperature and the right flux for the use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eE27 socket or integrated LED: what is the difference in use?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith an E27 socket, you stay in control: you can change the power or the tint later, or replace a burnt-out bulb for a few pounds. An integrated LED encloses the source in the fitting and allows a slimmer housing, with no visible bulb. For a very flat look against a wall, look instead at the \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/spots-moderne\"\u003emodern-style spotlights\u003c\/a\u003e with an integrated source.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan you change the bulb of an IP65 outdoor spotlight?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, if the model has a screw-in socket: you open the fitting, replace the bulb and close it again, making sure to refit the gasket correctly. A pinched or forgotten gasket loses watertightness immediately. If the model has an integrated LED, the source cannot be replaced and the whole fitting will need to be changed when the time comes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"12v-230v\"\u003eDo you need an IP65 outdoor spotlight in 12V or 230V?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 230 V spotlight connects directly to the mains, on a junction box or a dedicated outlet. A 12 V spotlight works with a transformer and runs at low voltage, which makes it practical in a garden, at the edge of a pool or where the cable runs along the ground. 12 V requires a properly sized power supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIP65 outdoor spotlight 12V: which transformer should you plan for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe transformer must cover the sum of the powers of the connected spotlights, with a margin so it does not overheat. The longer the cable, the more voltage drop is felt at the end of the line: better a slightly oversized transformer than one that is just enough. Place it in a dry and accessible spot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIP65 outdoor spotlight 230V: how do you secure the connection?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch off at the consumer unit, use a waterproof junction box, a tight cable gland and a cable suitable for outdoor use: 230 V does not forgive approximation.

Aim the beam at the surface to be lit and never towards the eyes.

A shield or an anti-glare grid often solves the problem on a ground spotlight. A beam that is too narrow on a light wall produces the same unpleasant effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"versions\"\u003eAdjustable, recessed or with sensor: which version for which need?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn adjustable spotlight is set after installation and suits situations where the target changes or where the light needs to be framed. A recessed model blends into the ground or the wall and is less noticeable. A sensor version switches on only when someone passes, handy for an entrance or a rarely used side of the house. All three remain possible in IP65.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOutdoor spotlight with sensor: where should it be placed?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDirectly above the passage to be covered, at a moderate height, and oriented so as to sweep the arrival area rather than the street. A sensor pointed at a busy road triggers constantly. Adjust the range and the time delay after a few days of real use, not on the evening of installation. For a rarely used side of the house, this version avoids leaving the light on continuously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eRecessed ground spotlight: what should you check before drilling?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cut-out diameter, the depth available under the slab and water drainage: a recessed fitting installed in a hollow fills up and eventually oxidises.

An IP65 spotlight can therefore be installed outside, in the rain and near a watered area, but never immersed in water.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How many lumens are needed to light a terrace?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"There is no single figure: it all depends on the surface, the mounting height, the beam and the mood you want. Compare the flux shown on each product page and the beam angle, favour an adjustable or dimmable model, then adjust after a first evening test.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How many lumens should you plan for an outdoor floodlight?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The right reference is not a fixed number but the relationship between flux, distance and target surface. A very bright floodlight mounted too high causes glare; a more modest model, well aimed, is enough for a wall or a planting bed. Check the flux and the angle on the product page, then adjust.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What is the difference between lumens and ANSI lumens?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Lumens measure the total luminous flux emitted by a source.

It is the IP65 rating of the spotlight that ensures watertightness, not the bulb. Choose a bulb with a colour temperature and flux suited to the area, then check the type of light you want.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"How should spotlights be arranged on a ceiling?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Distribute them according to what you want to light: further apart for general light, closer together to highlight a wall, a step or a passage.
