The launch of the all-new LTFL Floodlight Series marks another bold step forward for LEDLite

The LTFL Series is fully CCT switchable, IP65 rated, and available in multi-wattage options across three distinctive models: the LTFL10, LTFL235, and LTFL810. Each one delivers powerful performance in a sleek, durable housing, built to thrive in all weather conditions. But this range isn’t just about power, it’s about choice, control, and adaptability.

The LTFL10 is the dependable 10W fixed-output unit that brings simplicity and efficiency together. It’s the perfect solution for smaller areas where precision lighting is key. Step up to the LTFL235, and you get a flexible multi-wattage unit, switchable between 20W, 30W, and 50W, to match your exact requirements at the flick of a switch. And for larger spaces or commercial use, the LTFL810 delivers a commanding 80W or 100W output that transforms any space into a brilliantly lit environment.

Every model in the series comes in three smart variations, Standard, PIR Sensor, and Microwave Sensor, and each features selectable colour temperature control (3000K warm white, 4000K cool white, and 6000K daylight). This means that users can create the perfect ambience or meet specific security needs, whatever the setting.

The Standard Model offers straightforward, always-on functionality when wired to a switch or timer, ideal for consistent illumination in car parks, workshops, and outdoor areas.

The PIR Sensor Model introduces intelligent motion detection using passive infrared technology, lighting up only when movement or body heat is detected.

For the ultimate in smart lighting, the Microwave Sensor model takes detection to the next level. Using high-frequency waves, it can sense even subtle movement through glass, thin walls, or around corners, making it ideal for sensitive or obstructed environments. Plus, the included remote control lets users fine-tune every setting, from sensor sensitivity to delayed shut-off times, and even colour temperature, all from a distance.

Mike Collins, Managing Director of Ovia Lighting, provides some valuable information for wholesalers on the subject of floodlights to help them make the most of this lighting product category.

Floodlights are a crucial component in the lighting industry, providing powerful illumination for a variety of applications, including security, sports and commercial spaces. For electrical wholesalers, understanding the key features, benefits and market demands for floodlights can help meet the needs of a diverse customer base and maximise sales opportunities.

Types of floodlights

• LED floodlights – energy efficient, long-lasting, and environmentally friendly, they are a popular choice for contractors and end users.
• Solar floodlights – ideal for off-grid areas, they are powered by solar panels and are an excellent sustainable option.

Key features to consider

• Lumens output: Determines the brightness level – the higher the lumens the more powerful the light output.
• Beam angle: Wider angles cover larger areas, while narrower angles focus light more precisely.
• IP rating: Ensures protection against dust and water, a crucial consideration for outdoor applications.
• Motion sensors: Enhances security by activating lights only when movement is detected.
Dimming capabilities: Offers adjustable brightness levels for energy efficiency and versatility.
• Colour temperature: Ranges from warm white to daylight, affecting the ambiance of the illuminated space.
• Photocells: Measure ambient light levels using photoresistors or photodiodes. Lights automatically turn on when surrounding light falls below a preset threshold (e.g., at dusk) and switch off when sufficient daylight is present (e.g., at dawn).

Benefits

Stocking high-quality floodlights can offer several benefits, including increased customer satisfaction, higher profit margins and a wider range of products to offer, especially as demand for energy efficient LED floodlights continues to grow. High-quality floodlights, particularly LED models, are known for their longevity and resistance to harsh outdoor conditions, leading to fewer returns and customer complaints.

After a miserably cold winter, we’re probably all ready to turn our attention to the outdoors, but it will take more than a bit of sunshine to prize us from our smartphones these days. So why not go with the flow and offer Wi-fi control of outdoor lighting and appliances?  

With millions of homeowners already quite comfortable with using remote Wi-Fi control of heating and doorbell cameras via their home router, why not stock the products that enable installers to offer them more smart devices – assuming you can do so with confidence in both the hardware and software and without risking an avalanche of returns. That’s where the Timeguard formula comes into play. Timeguard focuses on what it does best – great product design and production management – and standardise on the global TuYa App for Wi-Fi control. That way Timeguard can be certain that its customers will always benefit from having a well maintained and regularly updated app and can use their preferred voice control (Google Home or Amazon Alexa).   

Feel more secure 

 Among Timeguard’s first Wi-Fi products for outdoor installation was a doorbell camera and chime package that installers could rely on. It provided everything needed to set users up with a monitoring system that would make them feel more secure.   

 In response to customer feedback, a Wi-Fi camera was built into a new switch option for the LED Pro outdoor LED lights (floodlights can also be paired with photocell, RF or simple PIR switches as required). It’s been a great success so far; installers particularly appreciate being able to offer professional-quality CCTV coverage with no extra wiring. This was followed by an IP66 in-line controller which, as long as the controller is within router range, can be used to control a whole range of outdoor appliances from fountains to fairly lights  (an indoor version is also offered, neatly sized to pop through a ceiling aperture once wired up). 

A stand-alone Wi-Fi PIR controller, available since early 2023, offers an easy way to add smart control to up to 250W of existing outdoor PIR lighting. But perhaps the most exciting addition for Spring 2023 is the latest addition to Timeguard’s compact floodlight range, complete with Wi-Fi control and new features giving installers more options to exceed customer expectations.    

 Wi-Fi control of twin floodlights … and more 

Adding Wi-Fi control was the next logical step for the range, which is especially popular for domestic and light commercial use. 

The specification is probably even better than you’d expect with a large and adjustable 10m detection range, independently pan- and tilt-able heads to direct 2,000 lumens of lighting from the 10W heads to just the right place. A new level of sophistication and integration has also been added. 

Installation is straightforward with the unit clipping in once the backplate is fixed to the wall. A corner mounting bracket is included just in case. The instructions, included in the box and freely available online) explain app based adjustments such as brightness, lux level and on times clearly for both installers and end users.  

New features: lighting scenes, Hi-Lo control and integration 

Every new product from Timeguard’s stable is designed to bring the latest features and benefits to your market. Headlining the new spec list for these floodlights is the ability to adjust the lighting ‘temperature’ between 3,000k (a soft, warm white or yellowish light) and a full 6,500 (bright, blue-white light, similar to daylight). Users can use the smartphone app to set and adjust the lighting scene according to their personal taste and circumstance; for instance using the 6,500k end of the scale for close work and dialling back to warmer ambience for an evening on the patio.  

The product has been engineered to offer a Hi-Lo option, so that the lights can be left permanently on low and will automatically switch up to full power when there is presence and movement within the PIR field. 

 Another feature that Timeguard believes will prove popular is indoor load activation which enables these new floodlights to also trigger other TuYa controlled devices and lighting indoors and out for integrated control.
