Elstead Miles HK-MILES-SI outdoor wall lantern GU10, satin nickel

Miles HK-MILES-SI is a Hinkley outdoor wall lantern supplied through Elstead Lighting. Clear seeded glass sits between upright supports and circular bands beneath a stepped cap. Its silver-toned satin nickel appearance is a painted finish on a weather-resistant composite body, rather than a statement that the housing is made from nickel.

A lantern with maritime detailing

The elongated glass enclosure widens towards its lower edge, while a rectangular backplate gives the fitting a straight-lined connection to the wall. Small bubbles remain visible within the clear glass; this is not an opaque or frosted shade. Those details distinguish Miles from a plain cylindrical exterior spotlight.

The nautical form suits coastal-inspired schemes, while the restrained backplate and exposed bands also work with modern classic styling and industrial details. Its character comes from the combination of these elements, not simply from the silver colour.

Replaceable GU10 LED included

The lantern has one GU10 socket and comes with an 8 W LED lamp. The supplied source is rated at 3000 K for warm-white light and 560 lm. This lumen figure describes the lamp, not a confirmed measurement of the complete lantern after light passes through the glass. There is no integrated LED module: when replacing the source, choose the correct GU10 fitting and observe the stated 8 W maximum.

Miles accepts dimmable lamps. If brightness adjustment is required, the lamp and dimmer must be compatible with each other; the fitting's compatibility does not imply built-in controls.

Allow for its projection from the wall

The overall height is 30.7 cm, width 15.3 cm and projection 15.8 cm. Compare that projection with nearby door swings before choosing a position at an entrance, on a terrace or on a balcony. The same wall-mounted format can serve the exterior of a hotel or restaurant.

Designed for outdoor use, Miles carries an IP44 rating for protection against splashing water, not immersion. It operates on a 220–240 V, 50 Hz mains supply and is Class I, requiring a protective earth connection. The manufacturer specifies a five-year guarantee.
