These are DelphiTech's latest and most efficient series of LED lights, the MAX SERIES with a LIFETIME WARRANTY.
Included:
- Connectors (2) - We include 2 red insulation displacement connectors that join our 22 AWG fixture wires to 18 AWG stranded security wire. We recommend 3M 33+ or 3M 88 tape to protect connections
- Connector Hole Plug (1) - Just in case you prefer to wire with the optional facia wiring method, we include a 5/8" BLACK hole plug with the black trim ring color and a 5/8" WHITE hole plug for the other 3 trim ring colors.
Power Source: Only power from a DelphiTech power supply (sold separately) Our 12VDC 5A supply will power up to 20 fixtures.
Design Experimenting - Prior to installing your system, you may want to play with 1 fixture at night to fine tune placement decisions such as distance from wall. Because DelphiTech has an adaptive driver in each fixture, a fresh 9V battery will give you an hour's full brightness experiment time. Just remove 1/4" of the red and black insulation and tape leads to the battery with electrical tape. FYI - most people find 8" from wall and straight down is a typical choice for an optimal result.
Mounting: Fixture mounted under a soffit where it can't be subjected to ice, driving rain, and connections are kept dry. Hole size should be 2-1/4" (2.25") and fixture height above soffit is 3.3". If you aren't wiring above the soffit but prefer to wire by tucking the wire into the facia edge, a connector hole plug is included.
Beam Selection:
- For heights of 14 feet and lower, we recommend a beam type of SPREAD to spread the light out more.
- For heights above 14 feet for better lower wall and ground illumination we recommend a beam type of REACH
- Soffit Sloped - When on a rising soffit such as an "A" frame structure that goes from 1 story to 2 stories, decide on one beam type to have a uniform result on the wall.
- These are factory sealed fixtures and so beam selection cannot be changed by the customer.
