Provides a 21st century solution for in-ground spotlights with an energy efficient, high performance LED retrofit with 18 watts of ActiveLEDs.
The U.S. - manufactured ActiveLED® MDB In-Ground Retrofit is an innovative, self-contained and factory-sealed LED light engine designed to easily replace the inefficient, high-wattage light bulb assembly in most existing Greenlee MDB 6" in-ground buckets, providing energy savings of 50-89 percent.
Businesses, municipalities, universities, colleges and military installations use Greenlee MDB style up-shining spotlights to illuminate or accent-light flag poles, building exteriors, parking structures and signage. The Greenlee MDB is an in-ground round spotlight that employs lamp technology that is mounted inside a heat and corrosion-resistant "bucket". Typically, these lights have Metal Halide, High Pressure Sodium or CFL bulbs and ballasts that run extremely hot and need regular maintenance.
The existing in-ground lamp and electronics can be easily replaced with the low-wattage ActiveLED MDB In-Ground engine and the fixture will still have the same physical characteristics. The difference is a superior quality of light, which improves the safety and appearance of its surroundings.
ActiveLED's patented LED technology also ensures a long life span of 90,000 hours (24/7 is 8,760 hours per year), lowering the bottom line when it comes to maintenance and operational costs.
The ActiveLED In-Ground Light Retrofit meets many commercial, residential and municipalities’ latest sustainability mandates for reducing energy usage.
The innovative design of the ActiveLED MDB In-Ground Retrofit is fully dark sky compliant and delivers the maximum possible light to the surrounding public space while eliminating light trespass to adjacent properties.

ActiveLED® MDB In-Ground Retrofit Product Schematic
Removing Existing Greenlee MDB in-ground Lamp and Electronics Assembly
It is a very straightforward process to remove the existing Greenlee MDB up-shining electronics assembly in preparation for installing the factory-sealed ActiveLED In-Ground Retrofit, as described below.
Before starting any disassembly / assembly work, first disconnect the AC power from the up-shining fixture.
• | Remove the four or six screws that secure the bezel and diffuser to the existing fixture body, safely put complete assembly to one side for reassembly. |
• | Remove existing Lamp and Ballast Electronics from the body of the "bucket". |
• | Connect the AC cabling from the ActiveLED In-Ground retrofit to the AC line feed within the Greenlee bucket. |
• | Reconnect the AC power to verify that the installation is correct and the ActiveLED MDB Retrofit is illuminated. |
• | Carefully place the factory-sealed ActiveLED Retrofit Engine assembly into the bucket and reinstall the existing Trim, Bezel and Seals using the original machine screws. |
The existing electronics assembly will need to be disposed of safely and in accordance with local regulations.
