The Madras WB90 is an 899mm slim wall light with a 320 rotatable lightsource in black or white 18W giving 935lm at 3000K, CRI above 80.

The 320 rotating source the sentence our page was cut off before finishing

The LED turns through nearly a full circle inside the fitting, so one wall lightcan be aimed up the wall, down it, or out into the room, andre-aimed later without coming off the wall. On a 900mm vertical that isgenuinely useful: the same fitting can graze a textured wall orthrow light across a landing, and you can change your mind.

The middle size is the value in this range. The threeMadras sizes give:

• 612mm 12W, 380lm 32lm/W
• 899mm 18W, 935lm 52lm/W
• 1,200mm 24W, 1,435lm 60lm/W

Going from the smallest to this one is 50% more power for two and a half times thelight. That is not how a size range normally behaves, and no source explains it butit means the 612mm is poor value in output terms, and the899mm is the first size that does real work.

935 lumens enough to carry a space

At this output the Madras stops being an accent. 935lm willlight a hallway, a stair landing or a bedroom wall properly, and aimed at one surfaceit reads brighter still. That, and not the extra 287mm, is the reason to step up from thesmallest size.

899 by 61mm

899mm high, 61mm wide, projecting 66mm, at1.4kg a fifteen-to-one line, and light enough for aplasterboard fixing. Note it is 899mm, not 900: if you are setting it betweenfixed points, work from 899.

It is ClassI earth required and hard-wired,and not dimmable at a fixed 3000K. An on-or-off fitting,which is worth knowing beside a bed.

Aluminium, iron, silicon and polycarbonate

The silicon, missing from our record, seals around the rotating element;polycarbonate diffuses. Sand finish in black or white matte, so a 900mm face does not catch every other light in the room.

Where it works

• Hallways and stair landings enough light to carry them.
• Beside beds and mirrors, aimed where you want it.
• Grazing a textured wall, up or down.
• 899mm, not 900 plan from the real figure.
• Not dimmable, and fixed at 3000K.

Questions

Which Madras size should I choose?

This one, if output matters. The three give 32, 52 and 60lm/W going from the smallest to this is 50% more power for two and a half times the light. The 612mm is poor value in output terms; the 899mm is the first size that does real work.

What does the 320 rotation do?

The LED turns through nearly a full circle inside the fitting, so it can be aimed up the wall, down it or out into the room and re-aimed later without coming off the wall. On a 900mm vertical that means the same fitting can graze a textured wall or throw light across a landing.

Is 935 lumens enough for a hallway?

Yes at this output the Madras stops being an accent, and aimed at one surface it reads brighter still.

Is it really 900mm?

No 899mm. If you are setting it between fixed points, work from 899.

Can I dim it?

No, and it is fixed at 3000K an on-or-off fitting, which is worth knowing beside a bed.

Will it fix to plasterboard?

Yes 1.4kg.

Black or white?

Both sand-finished rather than gloss, which matters on a 900mm face. Black draws the line; white disappears into a pale wall.
