The Roth EX20 is a 200mm solar exterior wall light in black 1.3W giving 150lm at 3000K, IP54 withno wiring at all.

There is nothing to install and no electrician needed. It issolar, running at 3.7V off an internal battery. The old pagesaid the fitting must be installed by a licensed electrician two sentencesafter saying no wiring required. You screw it to awall.

Run time, charge time, battery capacity and panel rating are notrecorded anywhere. On a solar light those four numbers are thespecification. Ask us and we will get them from Telbix before you order. We havechosen not to guess at them.

The wider of two, and it is the better proportion beside a door

200mm wide by 140mm high, against the small Roths140mm square. The wider format reads as a horizontal bar rather than abox, which sits better beside a door or above a gate and it carries150lm against 110, roughly a third more light for the same1.3W. The larger panel is doing that work.

Still a marker, not a light

150lm is more than the small one and still small in absolute terms. It willshow a gate, a step or a doorway and glow against the wall. It willnot light a path to walk down, and it is not a security light. Warm3000K, CRI above 80, not dimmable.

Aluminium and glass

Not moulded plastic aluminium with a glass lens, at0.71kg. That is why it can hang beside wired fittings on the same facadewithout looking out of place, which is unusual for anything solar.

IP54 is a splash rating. Dust-protected and rated againstsplashing water rain reaching a wall is fine, jets and sprinklers are not.And it needs direct sun on the panel for a useful part of the day: a shadedcourtyard will not charge it.

Where it works

• Above gates and beside doors, where the wide format suits.
• Fences, sheds and garden walls with no power.
• Rentals, where nothing can be wired.
• Needs direct sun on the panel to charge.
• Not a path or security light 150lm.

Questions

Do I need an electrician?

No it is solar. The old page said one was required two sentences after saying no wiring required. You screw it to a wall.

How long does it run on a charge?

We do not know, and we will not guess. Battery capacity, run time, charge time and panel rating are recorded nowhere and on a solar light those four numbers are the specification. Ask us and we will get them from Telbix.

Small or large Roth?

The large is 200mm wide against the smalls 140mm square, so it reads as a horizontal bar rather than a box better beside a door or above a gate. It also gives 150lm against 110, about a third more light for the same wattage, because the panel is bigger.

How bright is it?

150lm enough to show a gate, a step or a doorway and glow against the wall. Not enough to light a path to walk down, and not a security light.

Where can I mount it?

Anywhere with no power, as long as the panel gets direct sun for a useful part of the day. A shaded courtyard will not charge it.

Will it survive the weather?

IP54 is dust-protected and splash-rated. Rain reaching a wall is fine; jets and sprinklers are not.

Is it plastic?

No aluminium with a glass lens, at 0.71kg. That is why it can sit beside wired fittings on the same facade, which is unusual for anything solar.
