Torch Black Brass MR16 Accent Light
The Striker Torch is a precision-engineered directional accent fixture designed for use with MR16 LED lamps. Constructed from solid brass with a Gun Metal Black finish, it features a convex glass lens to minimize water accumulation and ensure long-term performance. The fixture includes an adjustable glare shield (cowl) for controlled illumination of trees, architectural elements, and other landscape features. Photometric characteristics—such as colour temperature, beam angle, wattage, and lumen output—are determined by the selected MR16 LED lamp. A durable brass adjustment knuckle provides over 120° of vertical aiming capability for optimal light direction.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I install the system myself?
Yes. 12V systems are designed for safe DIY installation. You’ll need a transformer, outdoor-rated wire, and fixtures. Simply connect, bury the wire just below the surface, and test. For larger systems, consulting a professional ensures perfect layout and voltage balance.
Do I need a transformer?
Yes. A low voltage transformer is essential to convert 120V household power to 12V. It also provides voltage regulation, timer control, and safety protection. Using a Striker Commercial Grade Transformer ensures stable power delivery and helps maintain consistent brightness across all fixtures.
How does voltage drop affect my lighting?
Voltage drop occurs when current travels through long wire runs, reducing light output at the end of the line. To prevent it, use thicker wire (12- or 10-gauge), keep wire runs balanced, and select a transformer with multiple voltage taps (12V–15V). Proper planning ensures even illumination across your landscape. Try our our Voltage Drop Calculator!
Are low voltage lights waterproof?
High-quality landscape fixtures are weather-sealed and rated for outdoor conditions—typically IP65 or higher. This means they can withstand rain, snow, and irrigation spray. Always ensure all connections are watertight and above grade to maintain long-term reliability.
How long do LED landscape lights last?
LEDs typically last 30,000 to 50,000 hours—that’s years of operation with minimal maintenance. They also maintain consistent colour temperature and brightness over time, unlike halogen lamps that dim or burn out frequently.
What wire gauge should I use?
For most systems, 12/2 landscape cable works best. Thicker wire reduces voltage drop and ensures consistent brightness across long runs. The proper gauge depends on fixture wattage, total distance, and transformer capacity.
