Sime - White Wall Lamp with Clear Glass IP44

The Sime outdoor wall light features a traditional decorative design in a matt white finish. Its curved form and projecting construction give it a classic exterior appearance, making it suitable for both period-inspired and more understated outdoor settings.

The fitting measures 35 cm in height, 27 cm in width and projects 28.6 cm from the wall. These proportions are worth considering when positioning the light beside a doorway or along a narrow passage.

The white finish provides a neutral appearance that can complement light-coloured render, natural stone or contrasting darker brickwork.

The Searchlight Sime uses one replaceable E27 bulb, which is not included. The manufacturer specifies a maximum lamp wattage of 10W. An E27 LED bulb within this limit is a suitable option for everyday exterior lighting.

Choosing a warm white LED bulb can help create welcoming illumination around a front entrance or patio. A cooler white bulb may be preferred where a more neutral appearance is wanted. Actual brightness and colour temperature depend on the bulb selected.

The fitting is compatible with dimmable E27 bulbs when paired with a suitable dimmer switch. The bulbs and dimmer switch need to be matched to each other for dimming to work properly.

With an IP44 rating, the Sime is protected against splashing water. It requires a fixed electrical connection and must be correctly installed with its protective earth connection.
