Varso Hi Ø330 36W LED Bulkhead Cool White - White

The Varso Hi is a round surface-mounted LED bulkhead drawing 36W and putting out 3600 lumens, fixed at a 4000K cool white tone with a wide 120 degree spread. Across the Atlantic a fitting like this is sold as an outdoor wall pack or a flush ceiling sconce, and the principle is the same: a sealed, integrated luminaire that washes a broad area with even, glare-free light rather than a focused beam. At 100 lm/W it runs efficiently for its output, and the 4000K colour keeps surfaces and signage looking clear and neutral.

Its broad 120 degree throw and 3600 lumen output suit covered entrances, porches, carports, stairwells, communal corridors and utility spaces where steady, all-over illumination matters more than a tight pool of light. The wide beam lets it sit on a ceiling or wall and cover a circulation route or doorway approach without dark gaps, and the cool 4000K tone reads as bright and functional for these working and access areas. The IP54 rating makes it splash-resistant and sheltered-rated, so it is well suited to bathroom zones and covered outdoor positions, though it should be kept clear of fully-exposed sites, direct water jets and any submersion.

Built from white plastic in a round 52mm-deep body measuring Ø327mm, the Varso Hi carries an IP54 seal against dust and splashing and houses an integrated LED array, so there is no bulb to replace over its rated 20,000 hour life. The driver is built in and runs directly from a 220-240V AC supply; this version is not dimmable. The clean white finish and low-profile round form keep it discreet on a ceiling or wall. The wider Varso range includes further wattage and colour-temperature options for matching fittings across a building.

Can the Varso Hi be used outdoors?

It carries an IP54 rating, which means it is splash-resistant and suited to sheltered, covered outdoor positions such as a porch or carport. It is also fine for bathroom zones. Keep it out of fully-exposed locations, direct water jets or anywhere it could be submerged.

Does it take a separate bulb?

No, the Varso Hi uses an integrated LED array rather than a replaceable lamp, giving 3600 lumens at a fixed 4000K cool white. The LEDs are rated for around 20,000 hours of use. The driver is built in, so it wires straight to a 220-240V AC mains supply.

Where is this bulkhead typically used?

Its wide 120 degree beam and even output make it a good fit for covered entrances, stairwells, communal corridors, utility rooms and carports. The neutral 4000K tone keeps these access and working areas looking clear and bright. It can mount on a ceiling or wall.

How should the bulkhead be cleaned?

Switch off the supply and let it cool, then wipe the white plastic body and diffuser with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive pads or solvents, which can dull the surface. Keeping the diffuser clear helps maintain the full 3600 lumen output.
