Zylight is the next generation of Fresnel lights. By incorporating a special blend of Quantum nanoparticles with traditional phosphor, the F8-200 boasts a high CRI (color rendering index) and a quality of light matched only by traditional sunlight and incandescent bulbs, while using a fraction of the energy.
IP Rating (All F8s): The F8-200 is rated IP54 for weather resistance, including the silent operation fan located on the back of the xture. Ingress of dust is not entirely prevented, but it will not interfere with satisfactory operation.
