Lillehammer 2296CG is an outdoor wall light shaped as a compact block of 18.5 × 11 × 8 cm, cast in aluminium and powder-painted in Cement Grey. It throws light upwards only: the 60° beam leaves the top edge and washes the wall above the fitting.
Where and how it mounts
The fitting screws to the wall through two ø5 mm holes spaced 45 × 130 mm. The terminals take conductors up to 3 × 2.5 mm², and looping through to the next fitting up to 3 × 1.5 mm² — so several units along a facade can run off one circuit. The gland takes round cable between 7 and 10.5 mm across.
It is protection class I, so the supply must carry an earth conductor. IP65 means dust-tight and protected against water jets, and IK08 against a 5 J impact. The manufacturer allows operation from -20 °C to +45 °C, so it stays up all year.
What light it gives
The fitting draws 4 W and puts out 108 lm, and all of that flux goes upwards. This is light for drawing a wall, not for lighting an entrance: it gets no brighter below the fitting, so a light over a door needs a two-sided or a downward version instead.
The colour is 2700 K, warm white with a yellowish cast, close to a traditional incandescent. Colour rendering is Ra 80 and colour consistency SDCM3 — neighbouring fittings light the same, which only shows up once several sit on one wall. The cover is clear safety glass, sealed with silicone.
Light source and dimming
Inside sits an LED module with an electronic driver. It is not a source you change yourself: the manufacturer has the module and the driver replaced by a professional and keeps a separate service set, ZS2296zx0009, for it. Driver life is quoted at 50,000 h.
The fitting can be dimmed, but only on a trailing-edge dimmer; the manufacturer names the Philips Xitanium TE control gear. A leading-edge dimmer will not work, so the dimmer type has to be checked before buying.
