Long Life Lamp Company 3 x GU10 Outdoor Garden Spike Light Ground Mount IP65 Matt Black ZLC01BS

This is my 3rd purchased of spike lights, the previous 2 sets leaked very quickly after installation despite being the same IP rating as these; one set i bought were £45 each! I purchased this as a friend recommended them to me; he has had these for over 5 years and none have leaked. Comparing to the previous lights (which leaked) these are far superior in quality and ironically are the cheapest! I haven't had any rain yet and they haven't been fitted long so i cant tell for sure if they will leak but I am assuming they wont as my friend's haven't.

Robust, bright and waterproof. Pity they didn't come with bulbs fitted.

These are very nice and look decent quality however the description needs to be clear that this is only the lights and they are not joined. You or an electrician will need additional pieces to finish these like a junction box or IP rated T connectors and possibly more cable. I assumed purchasing 3 would have meant they were joined but they were not.

One of the best purchases of the year for value. Complete sealed units, easy to install look and feel premium. So far so good. Have them in my garden no signs of corrosion or leeching rust like others purchased in the past. Only con is they do not come with bulbs. GU10 fitting would recommend a 5w bulb, 3 was not bright enough

The media could not be loaded. Ordered 9 of these over the years and they've never let me down. As an alternative to HUE spots which are very pricey, but these, add the HUE GU10 bulbs and away you go. Simple. The fitting is fine, read an odd review stating it's too tight and that they don't have big hands (they look big!) well I do have big hands and had no issues.Had 6 of these in the garden for two years, no faults or water ingress, just added more and expect no issues.

I have 7 of these dotted around my garden. They were used by my landscaper when our garden was built 11 years ago. They’re exposed to some brutal weather and I have never had one fail. However, the black paint does eventually come off and what is exposed beneath is rather unsightly. For this reason, I have (or rather choose) to replace them after 4 or 5 years. I could probably rub them down and re-paint them but at well under £10 each, it isn’t worth the hassle. I also observe that the brackets and the inner workings get pretty rusty and manky, so regular replacement is probably no bad thing from a safety viewpoint.

Generally positive in terms of product quality and sturdiness, but after foxes chewed the cables I realised they were non-replaceable, so I've removed a star for not being fully serviceable. The remaining lamp has been outside for about a year now and is still going strong (snow, rain, hosepipe), so I can attest to the IP rating being genuine.

Well made metal lights which claim to be IP65 and when inspecting sealing certainly seem sdequate - time will tell of course. Been intalled for 2 months now and no signs of water ingress or rust. Would have preferred the three lamps being joined together as had to buy a waterproof terminal box.
