Fabula Trafalgar 7W LED Spike Light - Grey & Black - IP65

Ground Level Uplighting for Garden and Patio

Trafalgar is a compact LED spike light designed to push firmly into soft ground, flower beds or lawn. The head is angled and fully adjustable so you can point the beam exactly where it's needed once the spike is bedded in. At 7W with an integrated LED, it provides uplighting to trees, shrubs and architectural features without needing a separate bulb or power tool to install.

Choosing Your Finish

The grey and black finish sits quietly in a garden setting, and because the light source is directed upwards and away from the main body, the fitting itself recedes into the background once switched on. If you prefer a different colour, similar spike lights are available across the range in alternative metallic finishes.

How It Works

The 7W integrated LED is built in and ready to use, with no bulbs or separate components needed. It emits warm white light at 3000K, creating an amber glow rather than a cool white uplighting effect. The 30 degree beam angle is narrow and focused, making it ideal for spotlighting rather than washing an area in light. The spike itself is long enough to stay stable in most garden soils, and the adjustable head means you can tilt it as the plants around it grow and change.

Where It Works Best

In the garden, these spike lights work best marking pathways, highlighting specimen plants, or creating dramatic uplighting on architectural features like walls or pergolas. Position them low and pointing upwards at trees or shrubs for a magical effect after dark. Because it's rated to IP65, it's equally at home indoors in a wet room or shower area should you want the same uplighting effect in a bathroom.

Design Details

The strength of an uplighting fixture is its simplicity: push it in, aim it, and it does its job. There's no fussy design language here, just functional form with a narrow beam to direct light where you want it. The die-cast aluminium body is robust enough to withstand garden conditions and regular repositioning as your planting schemes evolve.

Questions People Ask

Can I really use this in my bathroom?
Yes. At IP65, it's fully protected against water jets from any direction, meaning it meets the electrical safety requirements for bathroom zones 1 and 2. This includes areas immediately next to a shower or directly above a bathtub. For a full explanation of what each bathroom zone allows, see our guide to bathroom lighting zones.

How deep do I push the spike into the ground?
As deep as the spike itself is long. The aim is to have the fitting sitting flush with or just slightly above the soil surface. In very soft ground you might push it deeper, but you want it stable enough that a good tug won't dislodge it.

Can I reposition these if I want to redesign my garden?
Absolutely. The spike is designed to be repositioned, so you can move it as your planting schemes change. Just give it a firm tug to loosen it, reposition, and push firmly back into the new spot.
