Description
The Knightsbridge LANT3BKP is an outdoor LED half wall lantern with an integrated photocell sensor that switches the light on at dusk and off at dawn, with a manual override for daytime use. The lantern housing is moulded from black polycarbonate with a stepped profile and opal polycarbonate diffuser panels on three sides, housing an 8W integrated LED that produces 440lm output at 4000K cool white.
Designed for external wall mounting on house fronts, garage sides, porch entrances and garden outbuildings, the lantern carries an IP54 rating protecting against dust ingress and water splashing from any direction. The photocell sensor automates dusk-to-dawn operation without timer programming, making it useful for porches and front doors where consistent overnight security lighting is needed without manual switching. The half-lantern format sits flat against the wall with a 99mm projection, reducing the risk of being knocked by passing traffic or wheeled bins.
The polycarbonate construction resists corrosion in coastal and high-humidity environments where metal lanterns would require regular maintenance. The opal diffuser spreads the 225-degree beam angle evenly across porch steps and pathways, reducing harsh shadows. The fitting is Class II double-insulated, requiring only live and neutral connections without the need for an earth wire. The integrated LED has a rated lifespan of 60,000 hours at L70B50, equivalent to approximately 20 years of typical dusk-to-dawn use.

Frequently Asked
How does the photocell sensor work?
The photocell detects ambient light levels and automatically switches the lantern on at dusk and off at dawn. A manual override allows you to switch the light on during daylight if needed. The sensor does not require timer programming or adjustment.
Can this be used in coastal or high-humidity areas?
Yes. The polycarbonate construction resists corrosion in coastal environments and high-humidity locations where metal lanterns would deteriorate. The IP54 rating protects against water splashing from any direction, making it suitable for exposed positions.
Is the LED replaceable?
No. The LED is integrated into the fitting and is not user-replaceable. The LED has a rated lifespan of 60,000 hours at L70B50, which equates to approximately 20 years of typical dusk-to-dawn operation.
What wiring is required?
The lantern is Class II double-insulated and requires only live and neutral connections to 230V mains. No earth wire is needed. Installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician in accordance with current wiring regulations.
