HV3284T-AB-12V - Patra Antique Brass Surface Mounted LED Wall Light

The Patra in antique brass is a small surface-mounted exterior wall light with a built-in LED behind clear glass, made for marker lighting rather than area lighting. At 1.5 W it is not there to light a space — it is there to define an edge, a step or a wall line with a discreet point of light. Antique brass patinas outdoors, which suits heritage frontages, brick and landscaped garden walls where a factory-fresh metal would look wrong. It is a 12 V fitting: HV3284T-AB-12V requires a 12 V DC LED driver and must never be connected directly to 240 V power.

The choice to make

This listing is the antique brass finish specifically. The decisions left to you are the driver, the mounting layout and the colour temperature, which is selectable on the fitting across 3000K, 4000K and 5500K. The variant table carries the per-SKU lumen figure for each setting. Because output is deliberately low, spacing matters more than brightness — a close run of Patras reads as a designed line, while a scattered few read as an afterthought.

Where it works

• Step and stair walls, one per tread run to mark the change in level.
• Garden and retaining walls in a landscaped setting, where the brass patinas with the stonework.
• Heritage and period frontages, marking a path edge without a modern-looking fitting.
• Alfresco and courtyard walls, spaced as a line of low marker points.

Specifying it

The Patra requires a 12 V DC LED driver and must be installed no more than 25 m from it — a warranty limit, because voltage drop over a longer run dims the LED and shortens its life. Do not connect the fitting directly to 240 V power. It is Class 3 low voltage, so no earth is required. The LED is built in: no globe is needed and none can be fitted. The body is rated IP65, and the datasheet also records IP67, so it copes with direct rain and coastal weather. The diffuser is clear glass, impact rating IK08, and rated life is under 30,000 hours. It is Triac dimmable, which on a 12 V circuit means the driver must be a Triac-dimmable type.

Supplied and supported by Lights For You; the Patra draws only 1.5 W, so a single 12 V driver can carry a long run of them — plan the layout and the driver capacity together, keeping every fitting within 25 m.
