Kichler Lighting's 8.5watt LED Accent spotlight features 6 bright white LED lamps protected by a clear glass diffuser. The featured finish is called "Textured Architectural Bronze," a subtle color which gives the fixture a strong look on its own but blend seamlessly with a finished landscape. This model also comes in "Bronzed Brass" and "Textured Black".
This lamp is not the cheapo model you may find in most home improvement stores, but is just as simple to install and enjoy. The aluminum body gives the strength and durability needed for many, many years of outdoor enjoyment. A solid molded plastic base provides a good hold in the ground while strong screw-tight connectors ensure waterproof electrical contact.
The second item up for review today is Kichler's Pro Series transformer. This unit can be used with multiple lamps providing solid power for each fixture.
This transformer is amazingly solid. Just like the lighting fixture, this unit is built to last. And, as an added bonus, it not only comes with a timer, but also a built-in photocell to make sure you're not wasting energy running your landscape lamps during the daytime. The timer is adjustable down to the quarter hour and has a manual override switch for repairs and testing. The transformer has a sturdy 36" lead with grounded, three-prong plug.
