TUCUPITA Luces Exclusivas Outdoor Spotlight LE71461

TUCUPITA LE71461 is an outdoor spotlight with a cylindrical, finned aluminium body finished in black. The glass sits deep inside a wide anti-glare ring, and the whole fitting is held in a U-bracket that lets you tilt it and lock it with a screw on each side.

How big the spotlight is and how it mounts

The housing measures 12 cm across, and with the bracket the spotlight is 18 cm deep — that second figure is the one to compare with the mounting spot, because the fitting needs room to swing. The bracket foot is flat and has a slotted hole for a screw, so the spotlight is screwed to a solid base: a plinth, a wall or a structural element.

TUCUPITA comes in three sizes — LE71460 at 9 cm, this model at 12 cm and LE71462 at 15 cm in diameter. Each larger size puts out more light, so several fittings from the same family can be spread around a garden without looking different from one another.

How much light it gives and of what kind

The light comes from a built-in LED module rated 20 W with a 1500 lm output. The module is included, but it has no cap or thread — it cannot be replaced, so when it reaches the end of its life the whole fitting is replaced. 3000 K is warm white: light with a slightly yellow cast, close to that of a traditional incandescent bulb.

1500 lm from a focused fitting is enough to light up a tree, a larger shrub or a section of facade, not merely to mark a spot. The direction is set with the bracket once the spotlight is in place.

Where it can be used

IP65 means a dust-tight body protected against water jets, so the spotlight can stay outdoors without cover, on a terrace or against a facade. The body is aluminium and its fins carry the module's heat away, while a glass pane closes off the optic.

The fitting runs on 230 V, so it needs a mains supply run to it — it will not connect to a low-voltage garden system. The shape is purely technical: a smooth black cylinder with no ornament, with the bracket and the cooling fins on show.
