The Lomira WB is a 138mm compact wall light inpolished nickel, antique gold or black integrated6W LED giving 265lm at 3000K, IP44.

It is rated for outside and it will work insidetoo. Our page was cut off part-way through saying so, leaving it reading as though anIP44 exterior fitting were an interior one. To be clear:IP44 means it is protected against splashing water from any direction, so it issuitable for a sheltered exterior wall and equallyusable indoors, including a bathroom outside the shower zone, whichan IP20 fitting is not.

That dual use is genuinely the point of a small IP44 fitting like this: one wall light fora porch, a bathroom and a hallway.

The finishes are the interesting decision and one needs a caution

Polished nickel, antique gold, black. These areinterior-looking finishes on an exterior-rated fitting, which is unusual and is whatmakes the Lomira useful indoors.

If it is going outside, think about the finish.

• Black is the safe exterior choice it weathers without showing it.
• Antique gold is already darkened and uneven, so itages gracefully rather than visibly tarnishing.
• Polished nickel is the one to think twice about outdoors.Polished metal shows every water mark and salt deposit, and near the coast it willneed regular wiping to keep looking polished. Indoors it is faultless.

Compact and that is the whole proposition

138mm wide, projecting 100mm, on a108mm backplate, at 0.6kg.

That is small, and it opens up positions the larger exterior fittings in thiscatalogue cannot take. The Vexor projects 171 to 211mm and isan obstruction on a narrow path; the Lomira’s 100mm isusable in a passage, beside a door frame, or in a stairwell where you brush past it.

265 lumens a marker, and a glass detail

6W at 44lm/W. This is an accent: itmarks a doorway, a step or a passage and gives a wall some presence after dark. Itwill not light a path or a driveway.

The glass detail is what stops it reading as a plain box and on a fittingthis small, that detail is most of what you see.

The LED is integrated and included, fixed at3000K and not dimmable nothing to buy, nothing toreplace, nothing to change. It is ClassII double insulated, no earthrequired, which simplifies the wiring, though it is still hard-wired.

Where it works

• Sheltered exterior walls, porches and covered entries.
• Bathrooms outside the shower zone IP44 allows it where IP20 does not.
• Narrow passages and stairwells only 100mm projection.
• Polished nickel outdoors shows water and salt marks ask us.
• 265lm marks a doorway; it does not light a path.

Questions

Is it for inside or outside?

Both. IP44 means protected against splashing water from any direction, so it suits a sheltered exterior wall and equally works indoors, including a bathroom outside the shower zone, which an IP20 fitting cannot. Our page was cut off part-way through saying so and read as though it were interior-only.

Which finish should I choose for outdoors?

Black is the safe choice it weathers without showing it. Antique gold is already darkened and uneven so it ages gracefully. Polished nickel is the one to think twice about outdoors: polished metal shows every water mark and salt deposit, and near the coast it needs regular wiping. Indoors it is faultless.

Can it go in a bathroom?

Yes outside the shower zone. IP44 allows that where the IP20 fittings in this catalogue do not.

How far does it stick out?

100mm, on a 138mm body. That is small enough for a narrow passage, beside a door frame, or in a stairwell where you brush past it the Vexor exterior lights project 171 to 211mm and are obstructions in those positions.

Is 265 lumens enough?

It is an accent it marks a doorway, a step or a passage and gives a wall presence after dark. It will not light a path or a driveway.

Can I change the globe or dim it?

Neither the LED is integrated and included, fixed at 3000K. Nothing to buy, and nothing to change.

Do I need an earth?

No Class II, double insulated, which simplifies the wiring. It is still hard-wired, so a licensed electrician installs it.
