HIBOITEC

A weekend project that stays done.

We put a replaceable bulb — the kind usually reserved for brass fixtures — into die-cast aluminum, then gave the aluminum a thicker coat, so the fixture outlives the bulb instead of the other way round.

From $14.98 a light.

G4 · MR16

Our replaceable-bulb models use standard G4 or MR16 sockets, with bulbs available from multiple suppliers. Match the bulb specifications to your fixture and check our current replacement-bulb range before ordering.

70–100 μm

Powder coat over die-cast aluminum. The architectural minimum is 60 μm; we go past it for salt air near the coast.

3 W a light

Ten draw 30 W, half of one old porch bulb. About a dollar a year each to run.

Pick the part of the yard first.

Six areas. Under each one, the single decision to make before choosing a light.

Pathway & Driveway

Pathway & Driveway

The first run most people install. Decide spacing before the fixture: 6–8 ft apart on a walk.

Trees & Garden Beds

Trees & Garden Beds

Uplighting from below. Brass for the look, aluminum for the same job.

Facade & Foundation

Facade & Foundation

Flush with the ground, washing the wall.

Patio, Deck & Steps

Patio, Deck & Steps

Recessed in the tread. Light on the step, not in the eye.

Fence & Retaining Wall

Fence & Retaining Wall

Under the cap. When it is done you do not see the fixture.

Pool & Pond

Pool & Pond

Underwater kits with their own transformer and timer.

Three watts a light. Here is what that means.

Ten path lights on for six hours a night use about 66 kWh a year — roughly $12 at the U.S. average rate. Add up the watts of every light on the run, keep the total under 80% of the transformer, and the rest is room for next year's lights.

Transformer Path lights, 3 W Spotlights, 5 W In-ground, 12 W
100 W 26 16 6
200 W 53 32 13
300 W 80 48 20
400 W 106 64 26
500 W 133 80 33
600 W 160 96 40

Counts use 80% of rated load, one fixture type per run. Mixed run: add the watts of every light and stay under 80%. Wire gauge and run length change the answer; the guide covers both.

HIBOITEC

Replace the bulb. Keep the fixture.

Changing the bulb

Unscrew the cap, pull the G4, push in a new one. The stake stays buried, the connector stays connected.

The parts

Cap, lens, gasket, socket, stem, stake. For now a damaged light is replaced whole; single parts go through support — email us the part name.

The connector

One per light, in the box. Join the lead to the main cable, read 12 V on the meter — done.

Next season

Six more lights on the same transformer, if you sized it with room. The math is above.

How we think about yard lighting.

We don't push the purchase.

For a short, sunny path we'll tell you solar is the better call.

Made to be fixed by the person who installed it.

The replaceable lines come apart in the ground, with hand tools, without pulling the stake.

Where the light lands. No glare. Colors read true.

We design to DarkSky International's five principles — useful, targeted, low level, controlled, warm-colored. We hold no certification; we follow the principles.

Replacing an old set? Keep the transformer.

Our G4 path lights run on 12–15 V AC or 12–24 V DC. You can reuse a transformer from an existing low-voltage system if its output type, voltage and capacity match the exact fixtures; size the load from the table above and check each product's rated input. Kits with a dedicated power supply use their specified components.
