1 Lighting Technology

2 Introduction Light and water are a sparkling combination. Including lights in your pond or water fea-ture creates a new and exciting after dark appearance. Here you can create the most interesting effects, reflections, glowing areas or put special features in the spotlight. With our range of underwater lights you can do all this and more!! Remember we do have professional commercial lights if this range isn t suitable for you. Submersible Lights are usually a later or subsequent addition to a pond. They will be either a compli-ment to an existing garden light system or intended to highlight the pond or a feature of it, such as a statue or a waterfall. All submersible lights generally available are low voltage and thus need a trans-former. Sizing Of Lighting The wattage of a light is an indication of its brightness. Quartz halogen lamps as used in most sub-mersible lights, are much brighter than comparable incandescent (normal light bulbs) lights of the same wattage. The effectiveness of a light in a pond at night depends on the surrounding ambient light. The more lighting in the vicinity of the pond, the less effective a pond light will be. Ponds under 50 litres and pond highlights only Small statues and ponds under 200 litres Medium statues and ponds under 400 litres Large ponds and statues under 2000 litres Larger statues and 2000 litres+ ponds with high ambient light levels 5 Watt/10 Watt 20 Watt 35 Watt 50 Watt 50+ Watt

3 NOTE THAT LIGHTS ARE ALWAYS LOW VOLTAGE AND NEED TRANSFORMERS (Not supplied unless ordered as a kit.) Transformer Size Calculation: For example, 6 x 10 watt spotlights = 60 watts = Transformer of 60VA or greater is required. If long runs of low voltage cable are used, the transformer should have more capacity again (usually go to the next size up or enquire for advice). The benefits of LED lighting Typical lifespan up to hours = nearly 20 times longer than halogen globes. Produce no heat No bulbs to replace Low power consumption Safe and reliable May be used submerged or dry Achieve full Brightness Quickly

4 Lighting Comparisons

5 Tornado Lighting Tornado small lights Tornado small lights are characteristically strong and reliable. They will cater to most small water feature applications, table top features, statuary and stone columns etc. The ring lights can be connected to tubing to create a light filled bubble. Tornado Halogen Lights Tornado Lights, the NEW Pond Light range, represents the easy way for your pond lighting. Very robust and economical, this new light is available in three models 20w, 35w, 50w Halogen. These sets include a clear glass lens, set of four dichroic colour glass lenses and a 10 metre cable. These lights have the integrated plugging system, which is now available on low voltage pumps and other items. This allows an interchangeable system, where you can use the single transformer for multiple items. Tornado LED Lights GOOD Using the same casing the NEW LED pond lights are available. This new light is available in five models 40 LEDs in white, red, blue, green and a 60 LED colour change unit. These sets share a lot of the features of their halogen cousins but with extremely lower power consumption.
