Description
The Dungarvan is a 300mm tall outdoor wall light with two E27 bulb fittings arranged to cast light both upwards and downwards from a central black polymer housing. The housing is formed from white polymer with embedded black colour technology, making it corrosion-proof and impact-resistant in coastal and high-exposure environments. The IP44 rating protects the internal fittings from moisture ingress and dust.
Designed for exterior installation on porches, garden walls, patio areas and building facades, the Dungarvan provides accent lighting on vertical surfaces while illuminating the ground and wall plane around the fitting. The up/down configuration gives defined pools of light above and below the unit without glare at eye level. Each E27 socket accepts bulbs up to 60W (sold separately), allowing choice of LED, halogen or filament sources depending on the desired colour temperature and output.
The polymer construction weighs less than metal alternatives and requires no painting or maintenance beyond occasional wiping to remove coastal salt or dirt buildup. The embedded colour technology means the black finish resists UV fade over years of sun exposure. The 150mm projection from the wall gives enough stand-off for the light to spread across textured surfaces without the housing touching the wall plane. Class II electrical safety removes the need for an earth connection during installation.
Elstead Lighting backs the Dungarvan with a 20-year warranty, reflecting the longevity expected from the polymer housing in outdoor conditions. The housing shows a central ring detail at the narrowest point, giving the profile a subtle hourglass form rather than a plain cylinder.

Frequently Asked
Is the Dungarvan suitable for coastal environments?
Yes. The white polymer construction with embedded black colour technology is corrosion-proof and designed specifically for harsh coastal climates where salt spray and UV exposure would degrade metal fittings or painted finishes.
What bulbs does it require?
The Dungarvan takes two E27 bulbs, each up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users install warm-white LEDs between 6-10W for energy efficiency, or filament-style LEDs for a decorative look visible through the top and bottom apertures.
What does the IP44 rating cover?
IP44 provides protection against solid objects larger than 1mm (dust and debris) and water splashing from any direction. This makes the fitting suitable for covered and exposed exterior locations including porches, garden walls and patios.
Does it need an earth connection?
No. The Dungarvan is a Class II product with double-insulated construction, so no earth wire is required during installation. It connects to live and neutral only.
