Occhio is a small surface-mounted step light with aneyelid shroud over the aperture 56mm long, 28mm wideand 47mm high. The eyelid is the whole point of it: it hides the LED from anyonelooking back along the path, so you see lit ground rather than a bright dot at ankleheight. That makes it the right choice for a stair or path you walk towards,where an open-faced fitting would glare. Six finishes run from black and white throughantique and solid brass to 316 stainless steel, polished or satin.

The decision that matters: this is a 12V fitting

Every finish on this listing is 12V DC. Occhiorequires a 12V DC LED driver and mustnever be connected directly to 240V that destroys thefitting and is outside the warranty. Havit also requires each fitting to sit within25m of its driver; past that the warranty does not apply. Size thedriver for the combined load of the run, and a 500mm tail is supplied at eachfitting for the connection.

Where it works

• Approach paths and garden stairs walked towards, where glare control matters more than output.
• Low retaining and planter walls the shroud throws light down onto the surface.
• Coastal and waterfront homes in 316 stainless, the marine-grade finish.
• Brass-detailed exteriors where solid or antique brass is being matched to door hardware.

Specifying it

Tri-colour selectable at install 3000K, 4000K or 5500K and the product’sown ordering table gives the same figures for every finish: 240lm at 3000K,250lm at 4000K and 260lm at 5500K. That is a genuinely useful output for afitting this size, so space them further apart than you would a 30lm marker.Triac dimmable on a dimmable low-voltage driver. IP65 covers direct rain on an exposedwall; IK10 means it survives being knocked at ankle height. The LED isbuilt in no globe is needed and none can be fitted. Licensedelectrician only.

Backed by a 3-year replacement warranty.

Questions

What does the eyelid actually do?

It shields the LED from direct view along the line of approach, sosomeone walking towards the fitting sees lit ground instead of a bright point. On a pathyou walk towards, that is the difference between comfortable and dazzling.

Does it need a driver?

Yes, a 12V DC LED driver sized for the whole circuit. Occhio is12V in every finish and must never be connected directly to 240V.

How far from the driver can it be?

Up to 25m. Beyond that Havit’s warranty does not apply, andvoltage drop over a long run makes the far fittings visibly dimmer.

Is it bright enough to light a path on its own?

At 240260lm it does more than mark a run of themwill genuinely light a path edge. It is still a low-level fitting, not a replacement foran overhead light at a door.

Which finish for a coastal site?

316 stainless steel, in either the polished or satin version. Brasswill patinate and powder coat can blister in salt air; 316 is the grade specified formarine exposure.

Is there a globe?

No. The 3W LED is integrated and not user-replaceable, so thereis nothing to buy separately and nothing to change later.
