HV2960T-TTM-12V | HV2960T-TTM-240V - Nava Titanium Coloured Aluminium LED Step Lights

Titanium-coloured aluminium is the finish to reach for when black would read as a row of dark spots and white would look clinical. It is a mid-grey with a metallic cast that sits quietly against concrete, bluestone, rendered grey and natural timber, and it hides dust and water marking far better than either extreme. This is the plain-faced Nava — a round surface-mounted step light that fixes onto a wall rather than into it.

Surface mounting, and when it is the only option

A recessed step light needs a cavity, a canister and a hole cut in the structure. The Nava needs none of that: it lands on a base plate screwed to the face of the wall. That makes it the fitting for solid brick, poured concrete, a finished render you will not cut, or a retrofit into a garden wall that is already built. There is no cut-out to specify and no aperture to get wrong.

The connection is made outside the fitting

Worth flagging at the quoting stage. The data sheet states this fitting has an external cable and the connection can only be made externally — there is no terminal chamber inside it. The 150 mm tail runs to a junction you provide, soldered and heat-shrunk or made off in a gel-filled IP67 connector (Havit lists the HV9911, HV9912 and HV9913). An unsealed joint voids the warranty, and on a surface-mounted fitting that joint is usually the most exposed part of the install.

What it puts out

A built-in 5 W LED behind a polycarbonate diffuser with a 120° beam and CRI above 80 — no globe and no socket to buy. Tri-colour switching gives 360 lm at 3000 K, 380 lm at 4000 K and 400 lm at 5500 K, chosen at installation from a switch on the PCB behind the diffuser. It arrives set to 3000 K, which suits the warm grey of the titanium finish. It does not dim.

Electrical, per order code

The two codes are not the same fitting electrically. 240 V is Protection Class 1 and requires an earth; 12 V DC is Class 3 and requires none, but it does need a 12 V DC constant-voltage driver, sited within 25 m with supply inside ±5% of rated voltage. Outside that allowance Havit voids the warranty. Wiring is parallel, and the rating is IP65 with IK06 impact resistance.

Two placement limits from the instructions

Aluminium fittings should be kept 5 km from salt water. And Havit excludes corrosion caused by the surface the fitting is mounted onto, naming sandstone and bush rock — both hold moisture and mineral salts against the back plate. On those substrates, isolate the base plate or move the fitting.

Both supply voltages of the titanium Nava are held by Lights For You with a three-year replacement warranty. The eyelid version of the same body is the HV2961T-TTM.
