Eos 4 Light Outdoor Flush Ceiling Light - Opal White IP44

The Eos is a 490mm cloud-shaped flush ceiling light moulded from opal white polyethylene with four E27 lamp holders inside. The organic, undulating form sits 180mm below the ceiling on a white powder-coated mounting plate, diffusing light through the translucent polyethylene body to cast soft ambient light across the room or covered outdoor area. The IP44 rating protects the internal components against water splashes from any direction, making it suitable for bathrooms, covered porches, and sheltered patios.

Designed for medium-sized rooms and outdoor zones where ceiling height is limited, the flush-mount configuration keeps the fitting close to the ceiling without needing a pendant drop. The 500mm x 490mm footprint covers typical UK ceiling roses and provides enough light spread for spaces up to 12-15m². The four E27 sockets accept standard screw-fit LED, halogen or filament bulbs up to 15W each (bulbs sold separately), allowing the colour temperature and brightness to be tailored to the space.

The polyethylene construction weighs 2.3kg and presents as a single moulded object rather than a multi-component assembly. The opal white finish diffuses light evenly without creating harsh shadows or visible lamp hotspots, and the smooth curves hide dust better than angular or faceted designs. The mounting plate and internal wiring are concealed behind the body once installed, leaving only the cloud form visible from below.

Dimming is supported when paired with dimmable E27 bulbs and a compatible trailing-edge or leading-edge dimmer switch. The IP44 rating meets the requirements for bathroom zones 2 and 3, and for any covered outdoor location where the fitting is protected from direct rain but may encounter condensation or spray.

Can this be used in a bathroom?

Yes. The IP44 rating meets the requirements for bathroom zones 2 and 3, which means it can be installed above the bath or shower as long as it is at least 600mm away from any water outlet. It is not rated for zone 1 (directly above the bath or inside a shower cubicle).

What bulbs does it take?

The Eos takes four standard E27 screw-fit bulbs. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair it with warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W each and 2700K-3000K colour temperature for ambient lighting. The maximum wattage per socket depends on the bulb type but typically 15W LED is the safe upper limit.

Is it dimmable?

The fitting itself supports dimming when paired with dimmable E27 LED bulbs and a compatible dimmer switch. Not all LED bulbs dim smoothly, so check the bulb packaging confirms dimmer compatibility before purchasing.

Can it be used outdoors?

Yes, but only in covered locations protected from direct rain. The IP44 rating protects against water splashes and condensation but not sustained exposure to rain or submersion. Suitable for covered porches, carports, and sheltered patios.
