Product Information

Full details

This flush ceiling light by Long Life Lamps Company is ideal for homeowners seeking a blend of traditional dome aesthetics with modern functionality, particularly for spaces with lower ceilings or where pendant lights are not preferred, such as foyers, kitchens, or bathrooms. Its key benefit lies in providing ambient, diffused lighting through its frosted glass shade and dual E14 lamp holders, creating a warm atmosphere. A key consideration is that LED bulbs must be purchased in a dimmable variant if dimmer switch compatibility is desired.

FAQs

What type of bulbs does this light fixture require?

It requires two E14/SES base bulbs, with a maximum wattage of 40W per bulb. Candle or Golf ball shapes are recommended for optimal fit and appearance.

Can I use LED bulbs with this light?

Yes, this fixture is compatible with LED bulbs. If you plan to use it with a dimmer switch, you must use dimmable LED bulbs.

Is this light suitable for bathrooms?

Yes, with an IP44 rating, it is suitable for bathrooms, specifically in Zone 2 and Zone 3 (areas outside of direct water sources).

Does the light come with bulbs included?

No, the bulbs are not included with the fixture and must be purchased separately.

How do I clean the frosted glass shade?

Switch off the power, then gently wipe the shade with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Dry thoroughly afterwards. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What is the difference between this model and the silver variant?

The primary difference is the colour finish. This model is Dark Copper, while other variants are available in Silver, Brushed Chrome, Antique Brass, and Black, offering different aesthetic options.

Is this light suitable for very low ceilings?

Yes, its flush mount design means it sits very close to the ceiling, making it an excellent choice for rooms with limited height where pendant lights would be impractical.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Check that the power supply is on at the mains. Ensure the bulbs are correctly installed and not burnt out. Verify all wiring connections are secure.

Flickering light when using LED bulbs

Ensure the LED bulbs are specifically marked as 'dimmable' if used with a dimmer switch. Older dimmer switches may not be compatible with all LED bulbs; consider upgrading the dimmer if issues persist.

Glass shade does not fit securely

Ensure the shade is aligned correctly with the fixture threads. Do not overtighten, as this could damage the glass or the fixture.

Light is too dim

Ensure you are using the maximum recommended wattage (40W per bulb) or a sufficiently bright LED equivalent. Consider if a brighter bulb shape or higher lumen output LED is needed for the space.
