Features & benefits of the Dax

Adjustable head design for maximum flexibility
The feature that really makes the Garden Lights Dax stand out is the adjustable head construction. You don't have to choose between downlighting and uplighting: the lamp does both. Direct the head downwards to softly light your driveway, path or plant border, or angle it upwards to dramatically illuminate sculptures, hedges and shrubs. This versatile outdoor LED spot system makes the Dax ideal for garden owners who value flexibility.

Energy-efficient LED technology with warm white light
With just 1.8 watts of power and 120 lumens, the Garden Lights Dax delivers an efficient light source that won't burden your electricity bill. The warm white light (3000K) creates a cosy, natural atmosphere in your garden. The LED PCB is replaceable and offers a lifespan of 25,000 hours – that means years of enjoyment without hassle.

Robust construction for all seasons
Made from aluminium and metal with an IP44 rating, the Garden Lights Dax is resistant to all weather conditions. The light functions reliably from -20°C to +50°C, so your garden lighting works without problems in winter and summer. The 5-year warranty underlines Garden Lights' confidence in the quality of this product.

Ready-to-use 12V system
The Garden Lights Dax comes with a light source and can be directly connected to standard 12V outdoor lighting transformers. With the included ground spike, bolts and connectors, you can get started quickly. The compact size (780 mm high, 160 mm wide) fits anywhere in your garden, from small borders to large patios.

Garden applications

The Garden Lights Dax is a versatile tool for garden owners who want multiple functions in one light. Thanks to the adjustable head, this LED outdoor spot is suitable for countless applications:

Lighting paths and driveways
Install the Dax along your garden path or driveway with the head angled downwards. The soft light of 120 lumens provides safe, cosy lighting without harsh shadows. The 15-degree beam range concentrates the light exactly where you need it.

Accentuating borders and shrubs
Reverse the head direction and use the Garden Lights Dax to subtly light your borders, garden plants and shrubs from below or from the side. This creates depth and texture in your garden landscape, especially elegant in the evening hours.

Patio and seating areas
Place several units around your patio or seating area for diffuse, warm white ambiance lighting. The low wattage makes it ideal for garden setups where you want to use multiple lights without overloading.

Highlighting garden sculptures and objects
The adjustable design of the Garden Lights Dax makes it perfect for emphasising garden sculptures, artworks or other decorative elements. By adjusting the angle, you create dramatic light and shadow effects.

Hedges and green screens
Positioned along a hedge or green screen, this garden light accentuates the contours of your greenery and adds evening ambiance to your outdoor space.

Installation & tips

Installing the Garden Lights Dax is straightforward and suitable for DIY enthusiasts. The light comes with all necessary mounting materials: ground spike, bolts, plugs and allen key. Follow these steps:

Preparation: Choose your desired location in the garden. Check that it is within reach of your 12V transformer (the cable length is 0.5 metres, so plan your wiring carefully). Make sure the ground is stable.

Assembly: Push the ground spike into the earth, or add bolts if you are installing on a patio or hard surface. Use the supplied plugs and bolts for secure fixing. The aluminium construction is lightweight and easy to handle.

Connection: Connect the Garden Lights Dax to your 12V outdoor lighting system. Make sure your transformer is suitable for the total wattage of all your lights. With just 1.8 watts per Dax, you can easily connect multiple units in series.

Alignment: Experiment with the direction of the light head. By adjusting it, you achieve optimal lighting for every application. Check the effect both during the day and in the evening with the lighting switched on.

Winter care: The Garden Lights Dax is frost-resistant to -20°C, but in severe frost it's worth checking whether any ice formation on the lamp is affecting light quality.

Frequently asked questions about the Garden Lights Dax

Can I replace the LED myself if it fails on the Garden Lights Dax?

Yes, the LED PCB on the Garden Lights Dax is replaceable. You simply remove the old module and insert a new one – no tools needed. This makes maintenance simple and cost-effective.

How many garden lights can I connect to my 12V transformer at most?

That depends on the wattage of your transformer. The Garden Lights Dax uses just 1.8 watts, so theoretically you can fit more than 30 lights on a standard 60-watt transformer. Always check the specifications of your transformer and allow for a safety margin of around 20%.

Is the Garden Lights Dax suitable for damp areas or near water?

The Garden Lights Dax has an IP44 rating, so it is splash-resistant and suitable for rainy weather. However, it is not fully submersible. Do not place it directly in ditches or ponds – but it's fine along waterside areas.

Can I adjust the head direction of the Dax after installation?

Yes, although the head direction is not specified as "adjustable" after installation, you can set it as desired during installation. Once set, the position remains stable thanks to the robust aluminium construction.

Does the Garden Lights Dax have dimming functionality?

No, the Garden Lights Dax is not dimmable and is not suitable for external dimmers. The light comes on at full strength (120 lumens) when power is switched on. This ensures stable, predictable light output.
