NORLYS Lillehammer 1581CS is an outdoor LED wall light that directs light upwards and downwards. Its rectangular body has a rust-coloured finish named Corten Steel by the manufacturer. That name refers to the finish: the housing is powder-coated cast aluminium, not a body made from corten steel.
Two beams for a vertical surface
This version has a 60° beam in each direction, illuminating the wall above and below the fitting. When choosing its position, consider the section of façade you want to highlight as well as the space occupied by the housing. It is designed for façade lighting and architectural accents rather than broad illumination of an entire garden.
Two LED modules provide warm white light at 3000 K. The complete luminaire delivers 229 lm, while the 1008 lm specified for the light sources is not the output leaving the fitting. Total luminaire power is 7.3 W. Compare the complete-luminaire figures when assessing this wall light alongside other outdoor fittings, rather than treating source output as delivered brightness.
A compact rust-coloured housing
The body measures 18.5 × 11 × 8 cm. Flat faces and the absence of ornamental arms suit modern, minimalist and Scandinavian architectural schemes. It can be considered for a terrace wall, balcony wall or masonry boundary where the intention is to illuminate a vertical surface in both directions.
The documented construction includes optical safety glass, a silicone gasket and an EPDM cable gland. Its IP65 rating means protection against dust and water jets, not suitability for immersion. The manufacturer specifies an operating temperature range of -20 to +45°C.
Electrical installation and maintenance
The fitting uses a 220–240 V supply and is a Class I luminaire. Installation and electrical connection require a suitably qualified person. Two 5 mm fixing holes have a spacing of 45 × 130 mm; compare these dimensions with the prepared mounting surface before installation.
Dimming uses trailing-edge phase control, so check that the chosen control supports that technology. Both the LED modules and control gear can be replaced by a professional service. This is not the same maintenance procedure as changing an ordinary screw-in bulb.
