Eurolux E27 Fumagalli Francy Bulkhead Light — 6W Warm White 2700K 800lm Black IP66, Outdoor Fitting Bedroom B244BFU

The Eurolux B244BFU is a black UV stabilized shockproof resin bulkhead light that takes an E27 lamp. Rated IP66, so it is built to sit outside in South African weather.

Key features

• 6W replacing roughly 60W — the same brightness for a fraction of the running cost
• 2700K warm white — a consistent tone across every fitting in the room
• 360° beam angle — spreads light through the room rather than in one spot
• UV Stabilized Shockproof Resin construction — holds its finish far longer than moulded plastic
• IP66 rated — sealed against rain and dust for outdoor use
• 25 000 hours rated life — years of use before it needs replacing
• Standard E27 (large screw) base — fits existing fittings, no electrician needed

Ideal for

• Entrances, patios and boundary walls
• Driveways and garden walls

Light quality

Warm white sits at the yellow end of the scale — the tone people associate with a relaxed lounge or bedroom, and the closest match to the old incandescent globes. This one puts out 800 lumens. That is a typical main-light output for a bedroom or a small to medium room. The 360° beam spreads light widely rather than throwing it in one direction.

Fitting and compatibility

E27 is the large screw cap found in most South African ceiling roses, pendants and standing lamps. IP66 means it is sealed against dust and against water jets from any direction, so it can be mounted fully exposed to the weather. It measures Height : 13 cm, Width : 29.5 cm, Depth : 9 cm. The UV stabilized shockproof resin construction is what you are paying for at this price — it is the part that determines how well the fitting ages.

Good to know

This unit is not dimmable — pair it with a standard switch rather than a dimmer circuit, or it will flicker and its life will shorten. Check that your fitting takes the E27 (large screw) cap before ordering.
