Outdoor kitchens and stone steps that see real foot traffic need a little more light than a decorative accent. The CLS HL09B (part HL09BLB) is the 2W, 200 lumen middle option in the CLS 7 inch brass hardscape series, built from brass and stainless steel in an Antique Bronze finish.
Is 200 lumens enough for treads and counter edges?
For most residential steps and bar counters, it is. It puts a clear, readable wash on the tread or counter face without the glare a brighter source can cause at eye level for someone seated at the counter.
Brass or aluminum for a hardscape light on this project?
Brass pairs naturally with brass path lights and up lights on the same property, so the hardware matches from the walk to the wall. This model combines a brass body with stainless steel, fully encapsulated LEDs and driver, and an IP65 rating, which suits the damp conditions under a cap.
How many can share one transformer?
At 2W each, quite a few. Total every fixture on the system, leave headroom on the transformer and check voltage drop on the longest run. Two mounting bracket types are included, and the serviceable design means a repair does not require removing stone.
