Nowodvorski CUMULUS is a family of outdoor ball lights, cubes and pendant globes in matt white plastic, made in Poland by the lighting maker from Częstochowa. The same soft, cloud-like glow comes in shapes that stand on a lawn, sit on a terrace or hang from a pergola.
All CUMULUS fittings share one material and one light source. The shade is moulded from white PE plastic, and inside is a single E27 socket for a replaceable LED bulb of up to 25 W, which is not included. They are protection class II and run on 230 V, and the maker rates them for outdoor temperatures from −23 to +40 °C.
| Model | Size | Good for |
|---|---|---|
| CUMULUS S | Ø 30 cm | balcony, path edge, small bed |
| CUMULUS M | Ø 45 cm | terrace, beside a seat |
| CUMULUS L | Ø 60 cm | lawn, entrance, pool side |
| CUMULUS XL | Ø 80 cm | large garden, focal point |
| CUBE M / L | 38.5 / 60 cm | modern terraces, by planters |
Plug-in spheres and cubes need an outdoor socket within reach of their cable, about 2.8 m long; keep the plug connection off wet ground. Pendants are wired to the mains, and changing their drop or connecting them is work for a qualified electrician. Choose the bulb for the mood: warm white around 2700–3000 K for a terrace, neutral white for a modern front garden.
The PE shade copes well with rain and frost. Rinse the shade with water from time to time to remove dust and pollen, and never fit a bulb above 25 W.
Yes. CUMULUS is rated for use down to −23 °C, and the standing models are splash-proof to IP44.
No. Fit an E27 LED bulb of up to 25 W.
The plug-in versions can. Lift the sphere off its spike or plate and move it, for example from the lawn to the terrace for a party.
