Luminis Outdoor Wall Light White - IP44 E27

The Luminis is an outdoor wall light built from die-cast aluminium finished in white, housing a Pyrex glass cylinder with a louvred aluminium insert inside. The fitting takes a single E27 bulb (sold separately) and carries an IP44 rating against rain and solid objects down to 1mm, making it suitable for covered porches, doorways, balconies and garage entrances.

Designed for upward or downward mounting depending on where the cable entry is most practical, the Luminis projects 250mm from the wall and stands 110mm tall. The louvred aluminium insert inside the Pyrex cylinder controls glare and spreads light both upward and downward in a banded pattern, giving visual interest on the wall surface while providing functional illumination for steps, doorways and pathways. The white finish pairs with both rendered and painted masonry, uPVC trim, and modern weatherboarding.

The die-cast aluminium construction resists corrosion in coastal and urban environments better than pressed steel alternatives, and the Pyrex glass cylinder withstands temperature changes without cracking. The fitting is dimmable when paired with a compatible E27 LED bulb and appropriate outdoor-rated dimmer. The 2150mm cable length gives flexibility for wiring runs to nearby junction boxes or external power supplies.

Can this be used in fully exposed positions?

The IP44 rating protects against rain from any angle and solid objects down to 1mm, but the fitting is best suited to covered or semi-sheltered positions such as under eaves, on porches, or in recessed doorways. Fully exposed positions subject to driving rain may benefit from a higher IP rating.

What bulb does it take?

The Luminis takes a standard E27 (Edison screw) bulb up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with a warm-white LED bulb between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K for outdoor pathway and entrance lighting.

Can it be mounted upside down?

Yes. The fitting can be mounted with the opening facing upward or downward depending on where the cable entry is most practical and what light pattern is needed. Mounting with the opening downward minimises water pooling inside the glass cylinder.

Is the white finish paint or powder coat?

The white finish is applied to the die-cast aluminium body. Ideal Lux typically uses powder coating for outdoor fittings as it provides better adhesion and weather resistance than wet paint, though the exact process is not specified in the product data.
