Timegaurd have most these features ages ago, good to see things getting better
I like the Anzal light . And is a good choice. I love it when Rick comes out and can’t help a sneaky look back at his handy work with a bit of a smile 👍great video as always Gordon 👍
Thanks Sean
Thanks for the video now i can buy a floodlight without a pre fitted wire !
Great to have the junction box onboard. We used to get these with halagon flood lights then LED flood lights removed them and now buildings are plastered with junction boxes for no good reason!
Great video. Also cool to hear you're in Skipton. Visited there a few years ago. Lovely town!
Good to see somebody else using nutserts to fix things to sheet metal
Nice features - love the glands and flexibility of connection/ pir etc. Still old school and shudder at screws less terminals. This far north ip66 is a minimum but would like to play with it at my house. Would like a 100w version for those farmers too sorting livestock. Good to see sparks being thought of when designing new products. Keep them coming big G - great video.
Cheers Adrian - how far north are you?

Nice. Just to be pedantic: it is not 'degrees Kelvin', it IS 'Kelvin'. Also note the capital K - that's because the units derive from a name, just like Watts or Amps, but unlike metres. 👍
Great video, nicely presented & good solid professional work. So it’s a bit snippy of me to comment that kelvin is an absolute unit; it’s just 6000K (for example), not degrees kelvin. Sorry.
Do you have a link for those threaded inserts and tool?
can you have multiple PIRs for a switched live configuration? e.g. a run of 3 lights along a path with PIR's at either end. I'm not an electrician btw!
Looking good you can link off for another light? Can the driver handle an extra 100w led,
Each floodlight has it's own driver so you can link as many as you like (within reason).For the PIR linking, x1 PIR can run up to 200W so x4 - 50W floodlights, x6 - 30W floodlights, etc.
2:44 - oof, Gordon: Degrees?
Degrees Kelvin 🤓
@@efixx Noo, it's 3000 kelvins... and you know it :D lol
Great Do u have a link for the threaded inserts used? Thanks
They are from AVK - uk.rs-online.com/web/c/fasteners-fixings/sheet-metal-panel-fasteners/threaded-inserts/?applied-dimensions=4294967232
They are called riv nuts or nut serts. I've used them in the motor trade for decades.
Looking from the position of the PIR it’s got very limited movement up and down . Example it might not be possible to aim the light at the correct angle that’s required by the PIR
We’ve pair this with the RF solutions kit kzhead.info/sun/i9mAhZGlgKiema8/bejne.html
Like it. Does it last though? Had nothing but bother with LED flood lights failing after a year or 2.
We’ll report back in a few years - six months so far
True. So many of these are priced as if they'll last for 10 to 15 years but in reality you'll be lucky to get 5 years out of one before forking out again for a new lamp. Plus an electrician callout.
All manufacturers seem to give a fantastic life of the LED lamp perhaps I should concentrate more on the drivers which often pack up
👍
Great video but you're not meant to rest ladders against a metal clad building.
Seeing that metal ladder and going off-topic for a bit: where do things stand with ladders? Can we use metal ones? Are we only supposed to use non-conducting but no one bothers? Who cares? (no really. Who will turn up and say "you can't use them"?)
It’s a good question. In this case it’s leaning against a steel framed building which a few weeks earlier was covered in metal scaffolding.
Like the cable-less design and the loop in out, it all a bit late though as JBs will have been added to most lights by now. Let’s hope they start and last the hours they are supposed to and not just a few years, as it’s an eco disaster throwing away all those used fittings
Great features, but the more simple and user friendly that electrical equipment becomes from an install point of view the more likely it encourages DIYers into thinking they are experts. 🤔
Simplicity never stops a DIY job
I would rather see DIYer to install this one, then “standard” ones with pigtail, where some individuals just use screw terminals or Wago terminals and let it hang from wall outside of building (saw it several times)..
you might want to add a strobe warning to this video!
Nahhhhhhhhhh

Rivnuts into such a thin cladding skin isn't my idea of durability. I'd much rather use a spreader plate on the inside and long fixings to go right through. High winds are going to play havoc with such a flimsy arrangement.
My thoughts as well, the bracket looks flimsy, and in strong wind there's going to be quite a bit of leverage on that narrow mounting bracket, I would have liked a wider bracket.
As a lighting impact assessment specialist, everybody should know that any flood lights like this with no cowling or shielding for upward light emissions will contribute significantly to sky glow, is detrimental to light sensitive ecology such as bats, cause extreme glare issues especially for the elderly and cause adverse light spill beyond the area intended for illumination. They shouldn’t really ever be installed especially when angled above horizontal as half the light goes straight to light pollution and in to the night sky. These really should be banned! If you have to light an external area, use a fixture that optically controls the light only downwards and has no light emissions above horizontal. It’s so distressing to see so many terrible installations that are incredibly wasteful and bad for the environment or neighbouring properties. Please stop installing flood lights like this.
