Product Information
Full details
The Tala Kilter Wall Light is designed for homeowners and interior designers seeking a blend of architectural form and functional utility in their lighting scheme. Its primary benefit is the unique pivoting fixture that offers versatile directional lighting, making it an excellent choice for task-oriented areas like vanity mirrors or reading nooks. However, users should note that the fixture requires a specific S14d bulb, which limits replacement options to compatible tubular styles.

FAQs
Is this light safe for bathroom use?
Yes, the Kilter Wall Light has an IP44 rating, making it splash-proof and suitable for bathroom zones where moisture is present.
Can I use any light bulb with this fixture?
No, this fixture is designed specifically for the S14d tubular bulb. You must replace it with a compatible S14d bulb.
Does the fixture come with the bulb included?
Yes, the Tala Kilter Wall Light includes a high-quality frosted S14d tubular bulb designed to work perfectly with the fixture.
Can I mount this outdoors?
The fixture is IP44 rated, which means it is suitable for covered outdoor porches, but it should not be exposed to direct jets of water or heavy rain.
Is the light dimmable?
Compatibility with dimmers depends on the specific S14d bulb installed. Ensure you are using a dimmable-rated S14d bulb if you wish to use a dimmer switch.
What material is the base made from?
The wall base is constructed from high-quality, durable aluminium.
Troubleshooting
The light is flickering
Ensure the S14d bulb is screwed securely into the socket. If it persists, check that the electrical connection behind the wall base is tight.
The pivoting arm feels stiff
The swivel mechanism is designed to be firm to hold its position. Do not force the arm; ensure no debris is obstructing the rotation point.
Light does not turn on
Verify that the circuit breaker is on and the bulb is functional. If the bulb is intact, consult a professional to check for continuity in the internal wiring.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should always be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure all wiring meets local building codes, especially when installing in wet zones. The fixture attaches to the wall via the circular aluminium base; ensure the mounting surface is flat and able to support the weight of the hardware.
To clean the Kilter Wall Light, first ensure the power is switched off. Use a soft, dry cloth to dust the aluminium base. If the frosted glass bulb requires cleaning, remove it carefully when cool and wipe with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the grey powder-coated finish.
