What Is a Jelly Jar Light Fixture?
A jelly jar light fixture is a compact and highly durable light, named for its characteristic glass enclosure that resembles a jelly jar. This glass is typically protected by a metal cage, and the entire fixture is sealed with gaskets, making it a powerful vapor proof light fixture.
This classic vapor light design has been trusted for decades in demanding environments. It combines an industrial wall light aesthetic with the robust, weather-resistant performance of a vapor-tight-rated luminaire.
Why Choose a Jelly Jar Light?
- Extreme Durability: With a die-cast housing and protective cage, a jelly jar light is built to withstand impacts, vibrations, and harsh conditions far better than a standard light fixture.
- Vapor-Proof & Weather-Resistant: These fixtures are fully sealed to be "vapor tight," meaning they lock out moisture, dust, and dirt. This makes them ideal for wet locations and outdoor jelly jar light applications.
- Versatile Mounting: Jelly jar lights are compact and can be mounted nearly anywhere, including on walls, ceilings, and even on poles, making them a perfect solution for tight spaces.
- Classic Industrial Aesthetic: The timeless, rugged design is a popular choice for adding a rustic, nautical, or industrial touch to a space, both for utility and for style.
Common Applications for Jelly Jar Lights
The jelly jar light is a versatile problem-solver for any area that needs a durable, sealed, and compact light source.
- Outdoor Areas: Patios, porches, building exteriors, and outdoor stairwells.
- Industrial & Utility: As an industrial wall light in workshops, tunnels, and over equipment.
- Wet Locations: Walk-in coolers, freezers, breweries, and barns.
- Interior Spaces: Utility basements, stairwells, and closets for a rustic/industrial look.
