The Spitze Black 3W LED Garden Spike Light is a sleek and durable outdoor lighting solution designed to highlight garden features, pathways, and landscapes with precision. Its adjustable head allows for easy direction of light, while the Tri-Colour technology lets you choose the perfect tone for any setting. Built to withstand outdoor conditions with an IP65 rating, this spike light combines functionality with modern aesthetics for long-lasting performance.
Choosing a driver
This spike light runs on 12v DC, so it needs a 12v LED driver (sometimes called a transformer). It cannot connect straight to 240v mains. The driver is wired in by a licensed electrician.
Allow 3w for each spike light and add about 20% headroom. 10 spike lights draw 30w, so they need a 12v driver of at least 36w, which in practice means a 60w driver.

For bigger installs, split the lights across two or more drivers and place each driver close to its group. Long cable runs at low voltage lose brightness at the far end, so check your cable size with the voltage drop calculator below.
Outdoors, use a weatherproof IP66 12v driver and mount it above ground, clear of garden beds and pooling water.
