Description
- Aquascape Smart Control Hub (#84074) — enables color selection, dimming, and scheduling. Without the Hub, the light will not function.
- 12V AC Transformer — powers the entire system. Various Aquascape options 20W–150W available.
The Aquascape 8-Watt Color-Changing Spotlight (SKU 84060) is a high-output RGBW LED spotlight designed for focused illumination of pond waterfalls, rock features, trees, statues, and architectural accents. Its compact, fully sealed die-cast metal housing fits between rocks for hidden underwater placement, while the optical lenses positioned over each LED diode concentrate output for powerful, directed light delivery.
With high-output color-changing diodes plus dedicated warm white diodes (3000K), the 84060 offers a full range of vivid RGBW colors and a natural warm white setting that RGB-only lights cannot replicate. Pair with the Smart Control Hub (#84074, sold separately) and a compatible 12V transformer for full app control, dimming, scheduling, and multi-zone management. Backed by a 5-year full replacement warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose the 8-Watt Color-Changing LED over halogen?
The Aquascape 84060 8-Watt Color-Changing Spotlight offers several advantages over halogen:
- Energy efficiency — 8 watts provides comparable output to 50-75W halogen with approximately 90% less energy consumption
- Lifespan — 40,000-hour rated LED life vs 1,000-2,000 hours for halogen bulbs; no annual replacement schedule
- RGBW color-changing — halogen produces only a fixed warm white; the 84060 delivers the full RGBW spectrum plus smart-controlled 3000K warm white
- Optical lenses — concentrated LED output through precision lenses delivers powerful spotlight intensity without the heat output of halogen
How do I control the color-changing features?
Full color-changing capability requires the Aquascape Smart Control Hub (#84074, sold separately) and a compatible 12V AC transformer (sold separately). Once connected, the Aquascape Smart Control App enables:
- RGBW color selection across the full color wheel plus dedicated 3000K warm white
- Brightness dimming from full output to ambient glow
- Automated scheduling with sunrise/sunset timers
- Multi-zone control using multiple Hubs for independent fixture groups
For wireless control without a smartphone, the optional RF Remote (#84073) provides similar control from a handheld device.
Is this 8-Watt spotlight fully submersible?
Yes. The 84060 features a die-cast metal housing with a fully sealed, protective finish rated for continuous submerged use in freshwater ponds. The compact body is specifically sized to fit between pond rocks and boulders, allowing the fixture to virtually disappear in the water feature for a natural lighting effect. Not approved for swimming pools or saltwater applications. GFCI-protected outlet recommended.
Can I add this to my existing 12V lighting system?
The 84060 uses Aquascape’s color-changing quick-connect system with a proprietary 5-pin connector that connects through the Smart Control Hub. It is not directly interchangeable with standard 2-pin Aquascape warm-white lighting systems. To add the 84060 to an existing installation:
- Install a Smart Control Hub (#84074) on your 12V transformer output
- Connect the 84060 to the Hub using the included quick-connect fitting
- Use Aquascape color-changing splitters and extension cables to add additional fixtures
Does this light require a specific transformer?
The 84060 requires a 12V AC transformer and an Aquascape Smart Control Hub (#84074) — both sold separately. Any Aquascape 12V transformer from the 20W to 150W range can power the system; select the transformer wattage based on the total number of fixtures in your installation (8 watts per 84060 spotlight). The Smart Control Hub connects between the transformer output and the light fixtures, enabling all color-change and app-control functionality.
