    Light up wet areas—these lights seal out moisture and humidity. They’ll even work in areas with frequent washdowns. Rated NEMA 4X, they withstand spraying liquid, resist corrosion, and keep out dust. Use them with medium-base, screw-in CFL (compact fluorescent), halogen, incandescent, and LED bulbs (sold separately).
    PTFE Lens—PTFE lenses are impact resistant.
    Tempered-Glass Lens—Tempered glass lenses are more durable than PTFE lenses. They have a zinc-plated steel guard to protect them.
