Sollos PATH LIGHTS Straight Hat Kit PSH055-TZ-12 Textured Bronze NL

Product Details

The Sollos PSH055-TZ-12 is a professional-grade landscape path light that combines a sleek, modern aesthetic with high-performance durability. This kit features a 5.5-inch "Straight Hat" design and a 12-inch stem, providing an elegant and clean-lined silhouette for contemporary and transitional outdoor spaces. Finished in a UV-resistant Textured Bronze powder coat over architectural aluminum, the fixture is built to withstand the elements without corroding. The underside of the hat is coated with white reflective paint to maximize light output and ensure a wide, even distribution of light across your walkways. As an "NL" (No Lamp) version, this kit allows you to customize your lighting with the LED bulb of your choice.

Key Features:

• Optimized Light Distribution: The underside of the 5.5" hat features white reflective paint, ensuring a soft, uniform wash of light without hot spots.
• Architectural Aluminum Construction: Lightweight yet exceptionally durable, finished with a UV-resistant powder coat to prevent salt-spray corrosion.
• Tool-Less Entry: Features a stepped, threaded collar that allows for easy attachment of the hat and quick re-lamping without the need for tools.
• Protective Lens: Equipped with a clear 4mm thick glass lens that shields the lamp from moisture, dirt, and debris.
• Sturdy 12-Inch Stem: The 7/8" diameter aluminum stem provides a solid and stable mounting point for the fixture.

Common Questions:

Q: Does "NL" mean the light bulb isn't included?

A: Correct. "NL" stands for "No Lamp," giving you the flexibility to choose an LED bulb with your preferred brightness and color temperature.

Q: Is the bronze finish a dark brown?

A: Yes, Textured Bronze is a rich, dark earthy brown with a subtle texture that helps it blend into mulch, soil, and bark.

Q: Can I use a higher wattage than 20W?

A: No. The socket is rated for a maximum of 20W to prevent heat damage. However, an LED "20W equivalent" usually only consumes about 2-3W, which is perfectly safe.
