LED 316 Stainless Steel Adjustable Spike Light Eden Havit Lighting - HV1402T

Eden is the plain, solid end of Havit's garden spike range: a single adjustable spotlight in 316 marine-grade stainless steel, with a 245 mm spike and a 5 W MR16 globe already in the box. There is no clever optic and no colour changing — it is a well-made metal body that aims light at something and keeps doing it in the weather. 316 is the grade that matters within a few streets of surf: it resists the salt-laden air that pits ordinary stainless and leaves rust runs down a light-coloured wall.

The decision that matters: this is a 12 V fitting

Eden runs on 12 V DC and requires a suitable 12 V DC LED driver. Its installation sheet is blunt about the alternative — "Use an appropriate 12v DC LED Driver — DO NOT CONNECT LIGHT FITTING DIRECT TO 240V". Doing so destroys the fitting immediately and is not a warranty claim. Two further limits from the same sheet are worth designing around before you dig: the supply at the fitting must stay within ±5% of 12 V, and the fitting cannot sit more than 25 m from its driver. Outside either, Havit voids the warranty. On a long garden run that is a real constraint — it usually means a driver in a garden box partway down the bed rather than one at the house.

Where it works

• Coastal gardens — the 316 body is specified for salt exposure, not merely painted against it.
• Uplighting established shrubs and small trees, where the head can be re-aimed as the plant fills out.
• Grazing a rendered or stone wall from a bed, using the 270° swivel to set the angle after planting.
• Irrigated beds and lawn edges — IP65 covers sprinklers and hose-down.

Specifying it

The globe is a 5 W MR16 and it is included, which also means it is the part you replace rather than the fitting. It is tri-colour selectable, and the product's own table pairs each temperature with its output: 270 lm at 3000K, 285 lm at 4000K and 300 lm at 5500K. Beam angle is a property of the globe fitted, not of the body, so if you swap the supplied globe check the beam of the replacement — an MR16 is sold anywhere from a tight 24° spot to a wide flood, and that choice changes the result far more than the wattage does. Both datasheets state the fitting is not dimmable. Colour rendering is CRI >80, IP65, with 90° of tilt and 270° of swivel on the head. Low-voltage work still belongs to a licensed electrician.

Backed by a 3-year replacement warranty.
