The SL06 Well Light: Three Years of Field Testing. One of the Most Versatile Tools We’ve Built.

By Patrick Harders, LC

In outdoor lighting, you often have to choose between performance and style. But with the SL06 Well Light, you get both. I designed this luminaire to deliver strength, elegance, and practical function, all in one seamless, reliable fixture.

If you haven’t watched the SL06 video yet, take a moment to check it out. In it, I offer a quick, insightful breakdown of what makes the SL06 one of the most versatile and powerful tools available to lighting professionals.

The SL06 isn’t a generic, off-the-shelf luminaire. It evolved through years of hands-on experience. I tested it in real-world conditions, listened to installer feedback, and refined every detail based on how the light performs in the field.

Three years of development shaped the SL06 into what it is today. That’s a significant investment of time, but every hour was worth it. My team and I built this luminaire around what professionals actually need, instead of just what looks good in a catalog. I'm proud to say it was worth every minute.

One Light, Multiple Applications 

I didn’t build this light for one scenario. I built it to solve many challenges.

  • Drop it into turf with our grass guard

  • Mount it in concrete using the junction box

  • Nestle it in mulch or gravel with clean, flush finishes

  • Use it in tight spaces, along walkways, or under canopy trees

  • Angle the light from inside the housing for difficult-to-reach features

No matter where you install it, the SL06 stays low profile while producing a strong, consistent output. It adapts to the job and quietly disappears into the design.

The Secret Weapon: Internal Tilt  

One feature that surprises most people is the SL06’s internal tilt capability. You can angle the LED inside the SL06 up to 15° while it’s still flush-mounted.

That might sound small, but in the field, it makes a big difference. You can uplight trees directly from turf without digging trenches or compromising the design. It gives you flexibility without compromising on appearance or durability.

This is especially valuable when you’re working in clean lawnscapes or modern hardscape installs where you can’t just hide a luminaire into a mulch bed. The internal tilt lets you aim precisely, even when mounting in concrete or grass.

This is why lighting designers consistently choose the SL06. It offers clean aesthetics, accurate lighting angles, and unmatched adaptability.

Built for Professionals Who Take Pride in Their Work  

When I say the SL06 is durable, I mean it. The SL06 can be buried in turf, stepped on with high heels, and even run over by a lawnmower without missing a beat.

The SL06 isn’t just another well light. It’s a tool for professionals built from the ground up to be tough, beautiful, and incredibly versatile. It gives you options, control, and confidence in your install.

This is the reason my team and I consider it a go-to well light. It delivers where it counts: on site, under pressure, and over time.
