A Tall Black Post Light for Driveways and Garden Paths
The Badminton is a tall 730mm outdoor post light in black aluminium with a matt white polycarbonate diffuser, designed to line driveways, paths and garden borders with steady, even light.
Materials and Finish
Aluminium body finished in black, paired with a matt white polycarbonate diffuser that spreads the light evenly rather than throwing a hard, glary spot.
How It Works
Takes 1 x 10W max GU10 LED bulb (not supplied) and is not dimmable. It's Class I, which means it needs an earth connection and should be installed by a qualified electrician.
Where It Works Best
With an IP44 rating, this outdoor post light suits paths, driveways and garden borders. Its slim 7.5cm by 7.5cm base means it stands neatly at the edge of a path or flower bed without taking up much space.

Questions People Ask
Can I dim this light?
No. The Badminton post light is not dimmable, it works on a simple on and off switch.
Does it come with a bulb?
No. It takes 1 x 10W max GU10 LED bulb, which is not included, so you'll need to buy one separately.
Is it suitable for outdoor use?
Yes. It has an IP44 rating, which makes it suitable for outdoor locations such as paths, driveways and garden borders, though it's best sited away from direct exposure to heavy rain or standing water.
Can I install this myself?
The Badminton is Class I, which means it needs an earth connection. We recommend having it installed by a registered NICEIC electrician rather than doing it yourself.
How tall is the post?
The Badminton stands 73cm tall, with a 7.5cm by 7.5cm base, making it a compact post light suited to lining paths and borders rather than taller pillar lights.
