Description
The Ypsilon is a slim LED wall light in white, made of a narrow rectangular block that sits flat against the wall and one thin blade that leans out from it at an angle. It stands 61cm tall overall; the block itself is 20.5cm tall and 3cm wide, and the fitting projects 14cm from the wall. The light source is an integrated LED, so there is no bulb to buy or change. It draws 13W and gives 1046 lumens of 3000K light, a warm white that sits comfortably in a home, with a CRI of 90, which means colours, wood and fabrics look true under it.
We see it working well in a living room, either side of a bed or along a dining room wall, where its long, upright line gives a plain wall some shape without crowding it. One on its own suits a narrow stretch of wall by a door or window; a matching pair frames a bed, a sideboard or a fireplace. The white finish sits quietly on a pale wall, so the fitting reads as a slim line rather than an object. It is rated IP20, which makes it for dry rooms indoors only, and it is not dimmable, so it runs from an ordinary wall switch rather than a dimmer.
The Ypsilon runs on the 230V mains and is wired in by a qualified electrician, and because the LED is built in there are no lamps to keep in a drawer. Its form is simple, a block and a blade with flat faces and clean edges, finished in white, so there is little for dust to settle in. One practical point: allow for the 14cm it projects from the wall when you place it beside a bed, a doorway or a sofa, so it sits clear of shoulders and the swing of a door.
