60 Watt Hybrid Solar Area Light | 12000 Lumens | 4000K | 120-277V | High Performance | 5 Year Warranty

Product Overview

This 60 watt hybrid solar area light delivers 12,000 lumens at 4000K color temperature, operating at 200 lumens per watt. The fixture functions as a direct replacement for 250 watt metal halide area lights. It accepts 100-277V input and incorporates a monocrystalline solar panel for hybrid operation.

The aluminum alloy housing measures 55 x 16.6 x 10 inches and weighs 44 pounds. A slip fitter mount is integrated for pole installation. The fixture includes a motion sensor and uses polycarbonate optics with a Type 3 beam distribution.

Where This Product Fits Best

This fixture is sized for area lighting applications where a 250 watt metal halide replacement is appropriate. The Type 3 distribution pattern directs light forward and to the sides, which suits roadways, pathways, and parking areas where coverage extends outward from the pole rather than directly below it.

The hybrid solar design allows the fixture to draw from both solar and hardwired power sources. Sites with consistent sun exposure can offset grid consumption, while the 100-277V connection provides backup when solar collection is insufficient. The IP65 rating allows installation in locations exposed to rain, dust, and washdown conditions.

Performance and Functional Considerations

At 12,000 lumens and 60 watts, this fixture operates at 200 lumens per watt. The 4000K color temperature produces a neutral white output. CRI is rated at 70+, which is typical for outdoor area lighting where color accuracy is secondary to coverage and visibility.

The monocrystalline solar panel is integrated into the fixture housing. Hybrid operation means the fixture is not solely dependent on solar charge. The EPA rating of 1.8 should be factored into pole and foundation calculations, particularly in high wind zones.

Installation and Long-Term Use

The slip fitter mount accepts standard round poles. At 44 pounds, the fixture requires appropriate pole capacity and may need two-person handling during installation. The 55-inch length positions the solar panel for exposure while the luminaire head is directed toward the coverage area.

Rated lifespan is 100,000 hours at L70. The fixture warranty covers five years; the battery warranty covers three years. No dimming capability is available on this fixture.

How This Fixture Is Commonly Used

Facilities replacing aging metal halide area lights use this fixture where solar offset is desirable but grid backup is still required. The hybrid design means operation continues regardless of solar conditions, which is relevant in regions with seasonal variation or shading from adjacent structures.

The motion sensor allows the fixture to respond to activity in the coverage zone. After installation, the fixture operates based on available solar charge, grid power, and motion detection without requiring manual intervention. Type 3 optics push light outward, so pole placement typically positions the fixture at the edge of the area being lit rather than centered within it.

Safety, Certifications, and Warranty

The fixture carries an IP65 rating. It can tolerate direct water jets and dust exposure without internal damage. The aluminum alloy housing and polycarbonate optics are built for outdoor durability.

The fixture warranty is five years. The battery warranty is three years.
