Biso 8W LED Up Down Wall Light - Anthracite

The Biso is a wall-mounted exterior light fixed to a house front, entrance or garden wall, drawing 8W from a 220-240V AC supply and giving 140 lumens of neutral white light at 4000K. Its form throws light in two directions, up the wall and down towards the ground, so the beams graze the surface above and below the fitting rather than spreading a wide flood. American buyers searching for an outdoor wall sconce or a façade light will recognise this up and down format, which marks a doorway or pillar with a clean vertical wash.

It suits sheltered exterior spots: a covered porch, a carport, an entrance recess or a wall under an overhang where the fitting is not fully exposed to driving rain. Indoors it works in bathroom zones away from direct spray. Rather than lighting a whole room, the Biso reads as accent and wayfinding light, picking out the texture of brick, render or stone and helping mark a step or threshold after dark. Mounted at roughly head height beside a door or along a wall, a run of them gives an even rhythm of light without glare into the eyes.

The body is anthracite aluminium alloy, compact at 220 by 90 by 80 mm and light at 580 g, with an IP54 rating that resists splashes and suits sheltered positions. It runs at a steady neutral 4000K with Ra 80 colour rendering and is rated for 25,000 hours, and the integrated LED is not dimmable. The fitting is surface wall-mounted via its back plate. Other finishes and matching exterior fittings sit alongside it in the Biso range.

Product Specification Sheet

Range Datasheet

Can the Biso be used outdoors?

Yes, within its IP54 rating, which resists splashes and rain blown at an angle. It is best fitted in sheltered positions such as a porch, carport or wall under an overhang. Keep it clear of fully exposed locations that take direct water jets or standing water.

What is the up and down light effect?

The fitting throws light both upward and downward from the wall, so one beam washes up the surface above and another grazes down towards the ground. This creates two narrow vertical pools of light rather than a wide flood. It is a common way to mark a doorway, pillar or wall feature.

Does it take a replaceable bulb?

No, the Biso uses an integrated LED rather than a separate lamp, so there is no bulb to fit or change. It is rated for 25,000 hours of use at a fixed 4000K neutral white. The LED is not dimmable.

How high should it be mounted?

Around head height, roughly 1.8 to 2 metres, works well beside a door or along a path so the up and down beams read clearly without shining into the eyes. Space several at even intervals for a consistent rhythm along a wall. It surface-mounts to the wall via its back plate.
