NUVO Lighting 65-858 LED Area Light Type III, 300W, Bronze Finish, 4000K, 120-347V

Type III throws light forward and to the sides in an asymmetric pattern, which suits fixtures mounted along the edge of a parking lot, a drive lane, or a perimeter roadway where the pole sits at one side of the area being lit. The NUVO 65-858 is the Type III, 300W version at 39,815 lumens and 4000K. If your pole sits in the middle of an island with parking on both sides, a Type V (square or round symmetric) pattern covers that better, and a wall-mount or building-perimeter application usually calls for Type IV forward throw.

One fixture covers the whole range. The 65-858 accepts 100V to 347V, so the same unit works on 120V single phase, 208/240/277V commercial service, and 347V Canadian three-phase. You do not order a voltage-specific version, which is why this is a practical standardization choice when a portfolio has mixed service across sites.

Yes. It's rated for wet locations and listed for outdoor use, with a cast aluminum housing, so direct rain and washdown exposure on an open pole or building face is within rating. Safety listing is cULus, which covers both US and Canadian installations.

The 65-858 is fixed at 4000K with 80 CRI; it is not a field-selectable CCT fixture, so you cannot dial it to 3000K or 5000K to match an existing run. 4000K reads as a neutral white, cooler than 3000K warm white and warmer than 5000K. If your site is standardized on a different color temperature, order that CCT instead rather than mixing on the same drive lane.

The fixture measures 30.28 x 12.39 x 3.11 inches and weighs 12.35 lbs. That's a shallow, wide low-profile head, so EPA loading on the pole is modest compared to an old shoebox HID housing of the same output. Confirm your pole and arm are rated for the fixture weight plus wind load at your mounting height before swapping.

The fixture is dimmable, so it can be driven down for late-night setback in a parking lot control scheme. The driver's dimming leads and any photocell or motion sensor are separate from the fixture itself, so plan the control device into your order. Note the LED array is integrated, meaning there is no lamp to swap and the whole head is the replaceable unit at end of life.

No lamps to stock. The LED board is integrated and included, rated for 50,000 average hours, so there is no relamp cycle the way there was with a 400W metal halide head. Maintenance planning is fixture replacement at end of life rather than a lamp and ballast line item.

At 39,815 lumens delivered, the 300W 65-858 is in the output range typically used to replace 750W to 1000W metal halide heads, which lose a large share of their initial lumens over life while LED holds output far better. Compare delivered lumens and photometry at your mounting height rather than wattage alone, and keep the distribution type in mind, this is Type III for perimeter poles.

It is RoHS compliant, and it carries a California Prop 65 notice for lead. That matters for procurement paperwork on California public and institutional projects, where the warning has to be passed through on documentation. The fixture is not ADA compliant, which is only a consideration for wall-mounted protrusion into a circulation path, not for pole-mounted area lighting.

Bronze only. It's a utility-style cast aluminum housing in bronze, which is the common finish for parking lot and site poles, so it blends with standard bronze pole and arm assemblies without a special order. There is no black or white option on this model.
