The Zambelis 23235 is a round LED wall light, 30 cm in diameter, whose front is an acoustic panel in Blue Lagoon – the manufacturer's photo shows its matt, felt-like texture. The body is made of metal and acrylic, and the whole fitting projects 7 cm from the wall.
Dimensions and mounting
The 30 cm diameter and 7 cm depth are the figures to compare with the free stretch of wall where the light will hang. It needs no cut-out or recess, as it mounts on the wall surface. According to the manufacturer's instructions, a mounting bracket is first screwed to the wall on wall plugs, the supply wires are connected to the terminal block, and finally the fitting is screwed onto the bracket.
The wall light runs directly on 220–240 V mains and is protection class I, so it needs a protective earth conductor – the terminal block has L, N and earth terminals. The manufacturer specifies that installation should be done by an electrician. No supply cable is included: the fitting is connected to the cable coming out of the wall.
How much light, and what kind
The built-in 10 W LED module delivers 700 lm, slightly less than an old 60 W bulb (about 800 lm) – decorative and supplementary light rather than the main lighting of a room. At 3000 K it gives warm white light, and the colour rendering index is Ra 80. The light cannot be dimmed, and the LEDs are permanently built in, so they are not user-replaceable.
The manufacturer states a lifetime of 50,000 hours (L80B10) – at three hours a day, that is more than 45 years. The energy efficiency class is E. The fitting is rated IP20 and intended for indoor use; the manufacturer intends it for living rooms, dining rooms and hotel interiors.
