The Pyrus is a 750mm exterior LED bollard in black sand integrated12W giving 650lm at 3000K, IP65, at1.5kg.

It runs at low voltage, and no source says where the driveris. The Pyrus is ClassIII under 54 volts. That means there is adriver in the circuit somewhere, and nothing in the datasheet, our record orthe old page mentions one not whether it is supplied, not where it sits, not what itneeds. The specification table did not even carry the voltage.

It matters most if you are installing several along a path, which is exactly what abollard is for: one driver may run the run, or each may need its own, and thatchanges what your electrician has to allow for. Tell us how many you are installing and wewill confirm the arrangement and supply what is needed.

650 lumens and this one genuinely lights a path

That is the distinction worth drawing. Most garden fittings in this cataloguemark; the Pyrus lights:

At 750mm the light sits at about waist height and castsdown onto the ground, so you see the surface you are walking onrather than a row of glowing objects. On a driveway or an entry path used after dark,that is the difference between decoration and use.

IP65 and on a bollard that is the rating you want

Protection against water jets from any direction. A bollardstands in the open: it takes rain from every angle, sprinklers and thehose, and it sits in the zone where irrigation actually hits things.

Compare the Kenra bollard at IP44, which issplash-rated and belongs in sheltered positions only. The Pyrus hasno such restriction open garden beds, path edges, driveways and coastalexposure are all within its rating.

Sealed LED the trade to understand

The LED is integrated, included and sealed at a fixed3000K, and it is not dimmable.

• The advantage: nothing to buy, nothing to match across a run of six, andno lamp holder for water to find which is part of how it reaches IP65 where theE27 bollards sit lower.
• The trade: when the diode eventually fails, the fitting isfinished you replace the bollard, not a globe. The Gorem andKenra bollards take a replaceable E27 if that matters more to youthan the rating.

At 54lm/W the Pyrus is reasonably efficient for a diffusedoutdoor fitting, and at 12W a run of six draws less than a single oldoutdoor floodlight.

195mm wide, and 1.5kg

A broad, low-slung bollard rather than a slim post 195mm across is wide for the type, which gives itpresence at the edge of a drive and a larger lit surface to throwlight from.

At 1.5kg it is light for its size, and on abollard that is the one thing worth thinking about: anything at waist height in a garden getsknocked, brushed past and mowed around. The Gorem bollard is2.7kg and the sturdier choice where that is likely.Make sure it is fixed down properly rather than relying on its own weight.

The sand finish, and what it is made of

Sand-textured black, which outdoors is the right call gloss shows salt, dust and water marks and a textured coat does not, and on a fittingat ankle-to-waist height that gets splashed by rain off a path, it matters more than usual.

A note on our data: the datasheet’s material field contains a softwarefault rather than a material, and our record reads Polycarbonate, Plastic which names the same thing twice, since polycarbonate is a plastic. The body ispolycarbonate: tough, UV-stable and, unlike glass or ceramic,it will not shatter if a mower or a wheelbarrow catches it which on a gardenbollard is exactly the right material.

Where it works

• Entry paths and driveway edges 650lm genuinely lights the ground.
• Open garden beds and coastal positions IP65, no shelter needed.
• In runs, where nothing needs matching because the LED is sealed.
• Low voltage tell us how many you are installing so we can confirm the driver.
• 1.5kg fix it down properly. The Gorem bollard is 2.7kg.

Specifying it

750mm high by 195mm wide, 1.5kg, inpolycarbonate, black sand finish. Integrated12W LED giving 650lm at 3000K,included and sealed, CRI>80,not dimmable. ClassIII low voltage, under 54V; a driver isinvolved and is not described in any source ask us,IP65 fully exposed positions, including open garden beds. Warranty is threeyears, as a replacement warranty.

Questions

Does it need a driver?

Yes it is Class III, under 54 volts, so there is a driver in the circuit. No source says whether it is supplied, where it sits or what it needs, and the specification table did not even carry the voltage. That matters most on a run along a path: one driver may serve the run, or each may need its own. Tell us how many you are installing and we will confirm and supply what is needed.

Is it bright enough to light a path?

Yes, and that is what separates it from most garden fittings here. At 650 lumens the Pyrus lights, where the Scape spike at 180 accents and the Terin at 120 marks. At 750mm the light sits at about waist height and casts down onto the ground, so you see the surface you are walking on rather than a row of glowing objects.

Can it stand in an open garden bed?

Yes IP65, protected against water jets from any direction, which is what a bollard needs: rain from every angle, sprinklers and the hose. The Kenra bollard at IP44 is splash-rated and needs shelter; the Pyrus has no such restriction, including coastal exposure.

Can I replace the globe when it fails?

No the LED is integrated and sealed, so when the diode eventually fails you replace the bollard rather than a globe. The advantage is that there is no lamp holder for water to find, which is part of how it reaches IP65. If replaceability matters more to you than the rating, the Gorem and Kenra bollards take a standard E27.

Is it sturdy enough for a garden?

It is light for its size at 1.5kg, and anything at waist height in a garden gets knocked, brushed past and mowed around so make sure it is fixed down properly rather than relying on its own weight. The Gorem bollard is 2.7kg and the sturdier choice where that is likely.

What is it made of?

Polycarbonate tough, UV-stable and, unlike glass or ceramic, it will not shatter if a mower or a wheelbarrow catches it, which on a garden bollard is exactly the right material. Our record reads Polycarbonate, Plastic, which names the same thing twice.

Can I dim it?

No the LED is integrated and sealed at a fixed 3000K.
