FAQs
Does this light come with a bulb?

Can I use this in my bathroom?

Is the unit dimmable?
Yes, it is dimmable provided you use a dimmable LED bulb and a compatible dimmer switch.
Can I install this myself?
While simple to mount, it involves mains electricity and requires proper earthing, so we recommend professional installation.
What does IP44 mean?

Troubleshooting

Check that the bulb is screwed in firmly and verify the power supply at the junction box.
