The LumenstarLED RD33 (SKU: LS-RD33-3W-RGB) is a professional-grade RGB inground LED uplight rated for outdoor wet locations. Operating at 12V DC and consuming only 3 watts, it delivers impressive colour performance while maintaining a minimal energy footprint. The IP67 waterproof certification ensures complete protection against dust ingress and temporary submersion — a critical feature for below-grade and hardscape installations exposed to rain, snow melt, and irrigation.
The fixture's stainless steel housing and trim provide exceptional corrosion resistance, making the RD33 particularly well-suited for coastal environments and regions with harsh winters. Stainless steel also ensures the uplight maintains its aesthetic appeal over many seasons without rust or discolouration. The low-profile inground form factor allows it to be flush-mounted in turf, gravel, concrete, or decking surfaces with minimal visual intrusion during daylight hours.
With a CRI of 90, the RD33 renders colours with exceptional fidelity — a key advantage when illuminating colourful plantings, stone facades, or decorative architectural elements. The RGB colour mixing capability allows lighting designers and installers to program dynamic colour scenes or set fixed hues to match any brand palette or design intent. This versatility makes the RD33 equally at home in commercial and residential landscape lighting projects.
Installation is straightforward thanks to the integrated 24-inch (60 cm) wire lead, which provides ample length for connecting to underground junction boxes or landscape lighting cable runs. The 12V DC low-voltage system reduces electrical hazard risk and simplifies compliance with outdoor wiring codes. The RD33 is compatible with a wide range of LED-compatible landscape transformers, RGB controllers, and DMX-based control systems for advanced programming.
The ETL listing confirms that the LumenstarLED RD33 has been independently tested and certified to meet North American electrical safety standards. This certification is essential for commercial projects, municipal installations, and any application where code compliance is required. With its combination of waterproof construction, full RGB colour output, high CRI, and professional-grade certifications, the RD33 is a benchmark product in outdoor inground LED uplighting.
