Eurolux Solar Wall Light Motion Sensor LED — 4W Daylight 6000K 500lm Black IP44, Outdoor Fitting Patio H220

The Eurolux H220 is a black ABS wall light. Rated IP44, so it is built to sit outside in South African weather.

Key features

• 4W replacing roughly 40W — the same brightness for a fraction of the running cost
• 6000K daylight — a consistent tone across every fitting in the room
• ABS construction — holds its finish far longer than moulded plastic
• IP44 rated — sealed against rain and dust for outdoor use
• Solar powered — no wiring and no running cost
• Motion sensing — lights only when someone is there

Ideal for

• Garden paths and driveways
• Uplighting trees and feature walls
• Patios and braai areas

Light quality

Daylight is the coolest, bluest tone on the scale. It reads as very bright and alert, which suits garages, workshops and security lighting more than living rooms. This one puts out 500 lumens. That is enough for a bedside lamp, a passage, or one of several fittings sharing a room.

Fitting and compatibility

IP44 means it is protected against splashing water from any direction, which covers most sheltered outdoor and bathroom positions. The ABS 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.
