Nordlux Kettle Ground Spike

The Nordlux Kettle Ground Spike is a purpose-built accessory for the Kettle series, designed to convert the portable Kettle lamp into a stable garden or landscape fitting. The spike supports the lampshade above ground level, creating a considered accent or pathway light that sits naturally within outdoor planting and hard landscaping.

Formally the spike is a long, slender cylindrical stem terminating in a cruciform soil spike with a circular stabilisation flange. The top features a threaded screw stud and mounting plate to accept the Kettle shade, and the minimalist matte black, powder-coated finish helps the hardware recede into the background of the garden.

Construction emphasises stability and discreet presence: a high height-to-width ratio places the light above low-lying foliage, while the four-sided pointed spike resists rotation once driven into soil. These are physical features intended to give the installed luminaire a secure, upright posture in typical landscape conditions.

The accessory raises the Kettle shade so the light clears nearby planting and provides directed accent or pathway illumination. It is engineered as an outdoor ground-mount accessory; check the Kettle lamp's IP rating and battery/driver details for complete suitability of the assembled fitting.

Installation is straightforward: drive the cruciform spike into compacted soil, use the circular flange for alignment, and secure the shade to the threaded stud. The accessory fits Kettle 22 and Kettle 36 lampshades; manufacturer warranty terms vary between two and fifteen years depending on the product and region.
