Outdoor spotlights

Recommended Posts

Someone has asked me to provide some fittings that will light a wall mural. The mural is on the "gable end" of a tenement building, and there's a vacant lot in between.

 

Essentially I'm looking for high output discharge (or maybe LED) fittings, with roughly 45 degree beam angle. I've searched a variety of catalogues and online options, but I'm not turning up anything at the moment. All the floodlights are 100 deg+, and everything described as a "spotlight" is far too weak.

 

The fixtures would be permanently mounted outdoors, so will need to be weatherproof. I'm thinking I probably need to hit up a specialist supplier but not sure where to start - I usually try to steer clear of anything "architectural" but this one is worth pursuing, even if it is out of my usual comfort zone.

Not used them in person, but these: https://www.etcconnect.com/Products/Lighting-Fixtures/Architectural-Fixtures/Source-Four-XT-HID/Features.aspx leapt to mind as something I've heard discussed positively. It's a weather proof, discharge, source four.

 

Edit: One thing I have used is archileds. Are they too tight a beam for you?

The source 4 option looks lovely, but I suspect will be way beyond the available budget. Archi-Led might work, but I suspect we'd need quite a few of them to get enough intensity.

 

Forgot to add in my original post, we only need white light - no colours required. Although I'd hope to get a reasonably pleasant colour temperature so the mural stands out against the yellowy sodium streetlights nearby.
