LED related lighting methods and apparatus are described. Various features relate to water tight light fixtures. Some of the fixtures are spotlights while other fixture are intended for in ground use. The light fixtures in at least some embodiments include power control features. In spotlight embodiments beam angle and power or light output can be controlled without opening the light assembly or compromising the water tight seals which also protect against dirt. In ground embodiments support tilt angle setting which allow a user to set the light fixture to one or more tilt angles. Beam angle can also be changed in some embodiments as well as power control. Beam angle, power control and tilt angle adjustments are supported in some embodiments but need not be supported in all embodiments with some embodiments using one or more of the described features but not all features.

A downlight apparatus includes a light source, a light housing and a stop unit. The driver box is used for storing a driver. The driver is connected to an external power source to generate a driving current to the light source. The driver box has a wall with an installation escape. The light housing has a light holder and a rim. The light source is stored in the light holder. The rim defines a light opening for a light of the light source to escape. The stop unit is fixed to the installation escape. The stop unit has a switch holder and a wire holder. A manual switch is placed in the switch holder and an enlarged wire head of an power wire is placed in the wire holder. An operation part of the manual switch is exposed outside the driver box. The manual switch is connected to the driver for adjusting a setting of the driver.

A light fixture for a security lighting system includes an elongated pipe having a lower pipe section, an upper pipe section, and an articulating joint coupling a lower end of the upper pipe section with an upper end of the lower pipe section for enabling the upper and lower pipe sections to articulate relative to one another. A clamping element is coupled with the lower end of the lower pipe section. A glare shroud is secured to the upper end of the upper pipe section. One or more LEDs are secured to an underside of the glare shroud. Each LED has an optical lens that is configured to pass light from the underside of the glare shroud at a predetermined beam angle of 137-156 degrees.

A method of producing a fastening device, and a fastening device, is provided. The method comprises the steps of forming a body elongating along a first axis by iteratively stacking layers, wherein the body comprises an at least partially open cavity elongating along the first axis. The method further comprises the step of forming a first and second chambers in the cavity, and forming an element, of which element a first portion projects into the first chamber and of which element a third portion projects from the cavity of the body in the first plane. The element is rotatably arranged, such that upon rotation of the element, the third portion of the element is configured to be releasably wedged within the chamber.

A floodlight includes a light source, a support member that supports the light source, and a fan that cools the light source by generating an air flow on a surface of the support member. The light source is supported on a front face of the support member and emits light forward with respect to the support member. The fan is disposed rearward of the support member, at a position facing the support member.

An LED plant light includes a light post, a light body and a rotating member. An elevation angle of the light body is adjusted by rotating the rotating member. The light post includes an adjustable member for adjusting the total length of the light post to adjust the height of the light body. The light body includes a first body portion, a second and third body portions respectively connected to the first body portion. The light angle of the light body can be changed by adjusting the angle between the first and second body portions or between the first and third body portions. The structure not only can meet the lighting use needs from seedling stage to growth stage, but also greatly improve the utilization efficiency of the LED plant light, minimize the planting time of plants to realize modular usage, simple the installation and maintenance and improve economic benefits.
