Derato 430x430 3x8W Round Ceiling Light E14 - White

The Derato is a round ceiling light that takes three E14 lamps, each rated up to 8W, giving a combined load of 3 x max 8W across a 428mm square plate. Running on a 220-240V AC mains supply, it spreads light from three separate lamp positions rather than a single source, which softens shadows and gives a more even wash across the room below. American buyers will recognise this format as a flush mount ceiling light, sitting close to the surface rather than hanging on a drop. The actual light output and tone depend on the E14 bulbs you fit, so you can set the brightness and colour temperature to suit the space.

The fitting suits hallways, landings, bedrooms and small living areas where a tidy, low-profile ceiling light is wanted. Because the brightness is determined by the three bulbs you choose, coverage scales with the lamps fitted rather than a fixed lumen figure, so a brighter set of E14 bulbs lifts a busy hallway while a softer set settles a bedroom. The shallow 150mm depth makes it a sensible choice for rooms with limited ceiling height, where a pendant would feel intrusive. It is an indoor fitting only, so keep it clear of bathrooms, porches and any damp or exposed positions.

The body is made from aluminium alloy in a white and silver finish, with a round profile measuring 428 x 428 x 150mm and a weight of 976g. It carries an IP20 rating, which confirms it for dry indoor use, and the three E14 caps accept standard small Edison screw bulbs that you supply to match your preferred output and tone. The fitting can be mounted to a ceiling or a wall, depending on where the light is needed. Bulbs are not included, which lets you tune the look and brightness to the room, and the Derato range offers matching options for coordinating fittings across a home.

How many bulbs does it take and what type?

The Derato holds three E14 small Edison screw bulbs, each rated up to 8W. The bulbs are supplied separately, so you can pick the brightness and colour temperature that suits the room. Running three lamps spreads the light more evenly than a single central bulb.

Can it be used outdoors or in a bathroom?

No. The Derato is rated IP20, which means it is for dry indoor use only. It should not be fitted in bathrooms, porches, carports or any damp or exposed position, as it offers no protection against moisture or water ingress.

Is it suitable for low ceilings?

Yes. At just 150mm deep it sits close to the surface as a flush mount fitting, so it works well in rooms where a hanging pendant would feel too low. This makes it a practical choice for hallways, landings and bedrooms with limited height.

How do I clean the fitting?

Switch off the supply and let the bulbs cool, then wipe the white and silver aluminium body with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive pads, which can mark the finish. Make sure the fitting is fully dry before restoring power.
