Description
A single E27 lampholder sits on a small round white plate, and five metres of cable comes already fitted, so there is nothing to make up before a lamp goes in. The plate is 115mm across, which keeps it discreet under a canopy or inside an outbuilding. It is weather rated, so damp air and the odd splash of rain will not bother it, and it takes lamps up to 15W: in practice that means LED, and a standard GLS bulb shape suits it best. It is a working part, not a showpiece.
We reach for this where a room or a shelter has power nearby but no light at all: a shed, a greenhouse, a workshop bench, a summerhouse, a covered porch. It suits anyone who wants plain, useful light in a place that has never had any, and it is handy as a spare holder for testing lamps. It will dim, given a compatible LED lamp and a dimmer to match, though no dimmer comes with it. The white finish keeps it quiet against painted timber and pale walls.
The plate and holder are finished in white throughout, plain and unfussy. Keep it clean by switching off at the supply first, then wiping the plate and the lead with a barely damp cloth and drying both before use; check the lampholder is dry before a lamp goes back in. It carries a one year warranty. We stock a twin outdoor version with cable supplied, along with switched indoor plates in the same white range, and for something more to look at there are the opal white ball pendants in the same range. The lamp is not included.
