Fabula Trafalgar 3W LED Twin Spike Light - Grey & Black - IP65

Twin LED Spikes for Garden Definition

Trafalgar is a spike light designed to push straight into soil, gravel or a flower bed, with two angled LED heads that let you aim the beam wherever you need it. The weathered grey and black finish is intentionally understated, designed to blend into planting rather than announce itself during the day. Each head swivels independently, so you can light a specimen plant, graze a path edge, or illuminate garden features from different angles.

Choosing Your Finish

The grey and black finish is practical rather than decorative, chosen to recede into a planted landscape so the light it casts becomes the focus rather than the fitting itself. This restrained finish works across all garden styles, from contemporary minimalist planting schemes to traditional mixed borders, because it does not impose any aesthetic beyond its function.

How It Works

Twin 3W LED heads give an output of 420 lumens combined, with a 3000K colour temperature that reads as warm and natural rather than harsh or blue. The IP65 rating means the fitting is fully protected against dust ingress and can withstand high pressure water jets, making it safe to leave outside in all weather conditions. The Class II electrical rating requires no earth connection. The LEDs are integrated, meaning no separate bulbs to purchase or replace, though the fitting will need professional servicing if the LEDs eventually fail after many years of use.

Where It Works Best

In the garden, Trafalgar works brilliantly for illuminating borders, lighting specimen plants, defining path edges or creating accent lighting on garden features. Should you want to use a similar fitting indoors, the IP65 rating also makes it suitable for bathroom zones 1 and 2, where its narrow beam could provide accent or feature lighting. For more information on what each bathroom zone means, our guide to bathroom lighting zones explains it in full.

Design Details

The engineering is quite refined for a garden spike light. The die cast aluminium body is sturdy enough to push into firm soil without damage, while the angled head design gives you real directional control without awkward adjustment mechanisms. The narrow beam angle of 30 degrees creates defined pools of light rather than general wash illumination, which is more useful for accent planting and feature lighting. The grey finish on aluminium develops a subtle patina over time, blending increasingly into its surroundings as seasons pass.

Questions People Ask

Can I use this indoors as well as outdoors?
Yes, if you need accent lighting in a bathroom, the IP65 rating makes it suitable for zones 1 and 2. The narrow beam and small size mean it would work best for feature lighting rather than general illumination.

How do I install it?
Simply push the spike into soil or a flower bed. The integral LED heads mean there are no bulbs to install. Ensure the ground is firm enough to hold it securely.

What if the LEDs fail?
The LEDs are integral to the fitting and not user-replaceable. After many years of outdoor use, if the LEDs fail, the fitting would need professional servicing or replacement.
