Favo LED Flood Light 14w or 24w in Grey with Sensor

Favo LED floodlight with sensor, in grey — 14W or 24W

The Favo is a compact utility floodlight in grey poly powder coated aluminium, sold here with a built-in sensor in two sizes on one listing: HV3721N-GRY-PIR at 13.7W producing 2200lm, and HV3722N-GRY-PIR at 24W producing 3000lm. Both run on 240V mains and switch on detected movement.

Those output figures are the notable part. At 2200lm from 13.7W, the Favo is doing considerably more per watt than a typical decorative floodlight — this is a working fitting aimed at lighting an area properly rather than accenting a garden. The grey finish says the same thing: it is made to disappear against concrete, colorbond and rendered commercial walls rather than to be a feature.

Fixed 4000K — and why that suits it

Unlike the tri-colour fittings elsewhere in Havit's range, the Favo is a fixed 4000K fitting. There is no colour selection to make at installation.

For a utility floodlight that is the sensible specification rather than a limitation. 4000K is the neutral white that renders surfaces, vehicles and signage accurately without the blue cast that makes a yard look like a car park, and without the warmth that makes a working area feel dim. Colour rendering is above 80 CRI. The fitting is not dimmable.

Where the sensor should look

A sensor light is only as good as its position. A detector responds best to movement crossing its field of view rather than heading straight at it, so a fitting placed to look along an approach triggers earlier and more reliably than one facing down it.

Work out what else moves through the zone before fixing the position: pets, hanging washing, passing vehicles, a neighbour's path, and warm surfaces cooling after sunset will all trigger a detector. A floodlight that fires all night is the one that gets switched off at the board, and the cure is almost always position rather than the fitting. Both sizes share the same 222mm by 141mm body, so the choice between them is about output, not appearance.

Power, rating and installation

The Favo runs on 240V AC mains with no driver required. It is a Class 1 fitting and requires an earth connection, so installation is work for a licensed electrician.

It is rated IP54, which covers dust and splashing water. That is a lower rating than some exterior floodlights carry, so it belongs under an eave, on a sheltered wall or beneath an overhang rather than on a fully exposed face taking driven rain. Havit also states that aluminium and 304 stainless fittings must not be installed within 5km of any salt water environment. Rated lamp expectancy is >30,000 hrs and the LED is built in — there is no globe to buy or replace.
