London 493WH is an outdoor wall light shaped as a classic lantern hanging beneath a curved, braced arm. The body is powder-coated cast aluminium in white (RAL 9003), and the lantern panels are clear UV-stabilised polycarbonate.
Size and wall mounting
The lantern is 56 cm tall and 30.5 cm wide and projects 46 cm from the wall — the space to keep free, for example, beside a door that opens outwards. The wall plate is 23 cm high and is fixed with four screws through ø5 mm holes spaced 25 × 140 mm. The light weighs 3.57 kg.
The terminals take conductors up to 2 × 2.5 mm² in a round-sheathed cable 7–10.5 mm in diameter, fed through an EPDM cable gland. It is protection class II, so no earth conductor is needed. On a building corner it is mounted with the 152 corner bracket, sold separately by the manufacturer.
Which bulb and what light
Inside is an E27 holder for an A55–A60 lamp, the classic pear shape — a larger globe or a long candle bulb will not fit. The manufacturer allows an LED lamp of up to 11 W. No bulb is included, so you choose the colour and brightness yourself, and changing it needs no service.
The panels are clear, so the bulb stays visible and its shape becomes part of the lantern's look. Nothing screens the light, which spreads sideways and downwards over the wall and the entrance.
Protection and intended use
IP54 means protection against water splashed from any direction, and IK07 gives impact resistance that matters where someone may knock into the light. If the diffuser is damaged, the manufacturer supplies it as a spare part.
A white lantern on an arm with a decorative ball at the bottom is English in style and suits classic façades. The manufacturer intends it for gardens; it also works at hotel and restaurant entrances.
