Malibu low-voltage light ground spike adapter by Sonoman

Last crawled date: 4 years, 4 months ago

Something went bump in the night and broke one of our Malibu low-voltage lights off of its plastic ground spike. Time for an upgrade! This simple adapter screws into the 1/2" threaded recess in the bottom of the shaft, includes a recess for the power wires to pass through to the outside, and has a recess on the bottom to snugly receive a length of 3/8" rebar. (Keep the exposed rebar short in case the light is broken off again.)
It's a slightly loose fit to allow for corrosion & dirt on the shaft's internal threads; scale up in your slicer if you want it tighter. The Fusion 360 file is included in case you want to modify the design further.
