Flank 24V Exterior LED Post Spike Light

The Flank PT3 is a 450 mm 24 V exterior LED post and spike light in aluminium — 3 W giving 210 lm at 3000 K, CRI above 95, IP65 — with a 350° rotatable head and a honeycomb anti-glare lens, in black, green or rust.

CRI above 95 — the highest figure in this catalogue

Most exterior LEDs sit at 80. Good ones reach 90. The Flank is above 95, which is gallery-grade colour accuracy and something we have not found on any other fitting here. In a garden it means foliage reads as living green rather than grey, and bark, stone and rendered walls hold their real colour after dark. On a light whose entire job is to make planting look good at night, that is the specification that matters most — and our page never mentioned it.

A honeycomb lens, which solves the real problem with spike lights

The failure of most garden uplights is glare: you see the source, not the thing it is lighting, and walking down the path means looking into a bright point. A honeycomb lens is a fine cellular grid over the LED that cuts the light off at an angle — so from normal viewing positions you see the lit plant and not the fitting. It is the difference between a garden that looks lit and a garden with lights in it.

A 350° rotatable head

This is what the old page was cut off before saying. The head turns through nearly a full circle, so one fitting can be re-aimed as the planting grows without being dug up and repositioned. On a garden light that outlives several seasons of growth, that is a practical rather than a decorative feature.

Black, green or rust — and green is the one to think about

Green is uncommon and genuinely useful: a spike light sits in the planting, and a green body disappears into foliage in daylight where a black one reads as a dark object. Rust suits timber, rammed earth and corten. Black is the default and disappears at night rather than by day. All matte.

IP65 and low voltage

Dust-tight and rated against water jets — correct for a fitting sitting in a garden bed taking rain and sprinkler spray. 24 V is inherently safer than 240 V in wet ground, and it lets several fittings run from one supply on light cable. The tail is 1,000 mm and the fitting weighs 0.6 kg.

Where it works

• Uplighting trees, shrubs and wall panels — the honeycomb lens hides the source.
• Garden beds where planting will grow — the head re-aims.
• Anywhere colour matters after dark — CRI above 95.
• ⚠ Needs a 24 V transformer — ask us what is supplied.
• ⚠ Not a path or security light — 210 lm, deliberately shielded.
