Description
The Ugento is a slim LED bollard light with a square black post that bends forward near the top into an angled head, where a white plastic diffuser runs along the lit face. The body is made from aluminium and steel and stands on a square base plate. It is 79cm tall, 16.5cm long and 4cm wide. The integrated LED gives 960 lumens at 3000K, a warm white that sits comfortably against stone, brick and planting. It is rated IP44, which means it is protected from splashing water, so it belongs outdoors in a garden, along a path or beside a run of steps.
Because the head leans forward, the light is thrown forward and down rather than up into the sky, which is what you want when lighting garden steps so each tread is easy to see after dark. We like a few along a path or the edge of a border, where they give a clean, architectural line at night, and the narrow post takes up little room among plants. The black finish recedes into greenery by day, so the bollard looks tidy rather than busy. It suits modern homes with dark window frames, timber cladding or crisp render, and anyone who wants a front approach that feels welcoming when guests arrive.
There is no switch on the bollard itself: it runs from the mains at 220 to 240V, 50/60Hz, and is switched at the wall, so plan where that switch will go before work starts. As a wired-in mains light, it should be installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions are available as a download. The LED and driver can be replaced by a specialist, so the light need not be discarded if one of them fails. At 0.87KG it is light and easy to handle while it is being fitted, which helps when you are lining up several.
