Collingwood GL019 Ultra Low Glare 1W Mini LED Ground Light - Antique Brass - Low Voltage

A Ground Light You Won't Notice, Until It's Lit

The GL019 Ultra Low Glare sits flush in the ground and stays out of sight by day. At night it throws a soft, comfortable wash of light with none of the harsh glare you get from a shallower fitting, even when you're stood right over it.

The Antique Brass Finish

This version comes in antique brass, a warm, aged gold tone over a 316 stainless steel body, so it copes with damp soil, frost and general garden weather without corroding. The bezel carries a small engraved C for Collingwood, and the lens sits flush with the surrounding surface once it's recessed in.

How It Works

It's a 1W LED fitting, low voltage, so it needs a separate driver and is wired in series with the other ground lights on the same run rather than plugged straight into the mains. The GL019's baffle sits deeper than Collingwood's standard low glare ground light, which is what cuts the glare down further. It's available with a 12° spot beam for a tighter pool of light or a 30° flood for a wider spread, both in 3000K warm white with a CRI of 80. With a suitable dimmable driver, it can be dimmed.

Where It Works Best

It's built for garden paths, patios and decking, driveways, coastal gardens and pond edges, anywhere you want gentle ground level light rather than a visible fitting. The 33mm cut out is small enough to recess into most paving and decking without much disruption, and the IP68 rating means it's genuinely fine with standing water, not just occasional rain.

About Collingwood Lighting

Collingwood designs and manufactures its LED products from Sywell in Northamptonshire, and has focused on LED technology since 2002. The brand says it was among the first to bring fully sealed, waterproof for life LED products to the UK electrical wholesale market, which lines up with a fitting like this one that's built to sit underground and take standing water. Collingwood has also been awarded a Gold medal by EcoVadis, putting it in the top 5% of companies assessed globally for sustainability.

Good to Know

• IP68 rated, so it's protected against dust and can withstand continuous submersion, not just splashes.
• IK07 impact resistant and walk over rated, so foot traffic across the recessed fitting is fine.
• Class III, low voltage fitting. It needs a separate driver, wired in series with other fittings on the run.
• Comes with a 7 year warranty from Collingwood.
• Moonlight Design recommends installation by a registered NICEIC electrician, since the driver and supply still need to be wired in safely.

Questions People Ask

Can I drive a car over this ground light?
It's IK07 impact resistant and rated for foot traffic, but there's no vehicle load rating given for it, so it shouldn't be installed anywhere vehicles will pass over it.

Do I need to buy a driver separately?
Yes. This is a low voltage fitting, so it needs a compatible driver, and it's wired in series with any other ground lights sharing that driver.

What's the difference between the 12° and 30° version?
The 12° option gives a tighter, more focused spot of light, while the 30° option spreads the light over a wider area. Pick 12° for picking out a single point along a path and 30° for a softer, broader wash.

What colour temperature does it come in?
This fitting is 3000K, a warm white that suits most garden and patio settings.

Is it dimmable?
Yes, as long as it's paired with a suitable dimmable driver.
