tailored to your needs

SMART (HARD WIRED) STUD LIGHTS

Smart integration with traffic systems for dynamic, in-sync operation in high-conflict areas

  • Power Source: Mains powered or traffic system integration
  • Installation: Requires trenching and cabling
  • External Activation: Signal/ sensor triggered (e.g. induction loops, cameras) or continuous
  • Customisation: Integrates with pedestrian or cyclist detection
  • Lighting Options: Static or flashing (fully in sync); RGB colour options programmable during operation
  • Maintenance: Parallel wiring keeps system running if one fails
  • Lower Environmental Impact: Sensor-based energy savings (only on when needed)

BATTERY POWERED STUD LIGHTS

Reliable performance in
shaded or enclosed spaces

  • Power Source: Internal battery (self-powered)
  • Installation: Core drilled; no trenching and cabling required
  • External Activation: Automatic dusk-to-dawn activation (ambient light sensor <100 lux), or continuous
  • Customisation: Directional optics (uni- or bi-directional LEDs)
  • Lighting Options: Static or flashing (independent, not in sync); colour options: white, red, green, blue, amber

SOLAR POWERED STUD LIGHTS

Sustainable visibility with
no wiring required

  • Power Source: 100% solar (self-powered)
  • Installation: Core drilled; no trenching and cabling required
  • External Activation: Automatic dusk-to-dawn activation (ambient light sensor <100 lux), or continuous
  • Customisation: Directional optics (uni- or bi-directional LEDs)
  • Lighting Options: Static or flashing (independent, not in sync); colour options: white, red, green, blue, amber
  • Lower Environmental Impact: Solar powered with no emissions

I have questions about…

Are Vivacity stud lights compliant with Australian standards?

Yes. All Vivacity In-Ground Stud Lights are designed for use in public and private infrastructure and meet relevant durability, visibility, and ingress protection standards. TIPES certification is available for select models.

What’s the IP rating of the lights?

All stud lights are IP68 rated – meaning they are fully dust-tight and protected against long-term immersion in water.

Are colour and light behaviour customisable?

Yes. We offer a range of colour options (white, amber, red, green, blue) and can configure static or flashing modes to suit your application.

Are the lights energy efficient?

Absolutely. Solar and battery-powered lights operate independently of mains power. Hard-wired smart lights use low-energy LEDs.

Do the lights reduce light pollution?

Yes. All optics are designed with low-glare lenses and directional beams to reduce upward light spill and wildlife disturbance.

Where should I use smart (hard-wired) stud lights?

Best for intersections, crossings, school zones or shared zones where dynamic activation (like scooter or bike detection) improves safety.

Which product is best for fast retrofit or minimal disruption?

Battery-powered and solar-powered stud lights are quickest to install, requiring no trenching or wiring.

Can I replace the batteries?

Yes. Both solar and battery-powered models have user-replaceable batteries – without needing to replace the entire casing. This extends the product’s life, reduces waste, and supports circular sustainability practices.

Can lights be replaced individually?

Yes. Individual units can be replaced without impacting surrounding lights or rewiring.

Do I need trenching for installation?

Only the smart (hard-wired) version requires trenching or conduit. Solar and battery versions are fully wireless.

Can the lights be installed on existing surfaces?

Yes. All versions are designed for surface or flush mounting on existing asphalt, concrete, or pavement.

Do you provide installation guidance?

Yes, we offer installation manuals, planning support, and site-specific advice.

How bright are the LEDs?

Brightness varies by model and mode, but all lights are designed for high visibility without causing glare or distraction.

Do the lights operate day and night?

Yes. Smart models can operate continuously or on sensor activation.

Are the lights load-rated for vehicles?

Yes. All models are engineered to withstand heavy traffic loads – suitable for roads, carparks, and shared zones.

What’s the lifespan of each unit?

Typically 5+ years. Batteries are replaceable and lights are engineered for long-term use in high-traffic environments.
