Its key benefit is the integrated motion sensor, providing automatic illumination for enhanced security and convenience. A notable caveat is that the bulb is sold separately, requiring an additional purchase.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is a bulb included with the Paulmann 94647 outdoor light?
No, the bulb is sold separately. You will need to purchase an E27 bulb to use this luminaire.
What type of bulb does this outdoor light use?
It uses an E27 screw-fit bulb. You can choose between LED, incandescent, or halogen bulbs, as long as they have an E27 base and do not exceed the maximum wattage.
Can I make this light dimmable?
Yes, the luminaire is dimmable if you install a compatible dimmable E27 bulb. The dimming function itself is not built into the fixture.
What does the IP44 rating mean?
An IP44 rating means the luminaire is protected against solid objects larger than 1mm (like wires) and protected against water splashing from any direction. This makes it suitable for outdoor wall mounting.
How is the motion sensor adjusted?
Adjustment capabilities for the motion sensor (such as sensitivity or duration) would typically depend on the specific bulb used or may be integrated into the fixture's design, though this information is not detailed in the standard specifications. Consult the included manual for detailed adjustment options.
What materials is the luminaire made of?
The housing is made of a combination of plastic and stainless steel.
What are the dimensions of the light?
The dimensions are approximately 164mm in width, 180mm in depth, and 230mm in height.
Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on
Check the main power supply and ensure the circuit breaker is not tripped. Verify that the E27 bulb is correctly installed and functioning. Confirm that the motion sensor is not obstructed and that the ambient light setting (if applicable to the bulb choice) allows for activation.
Motion sensor not activating
Ensure the motion sensor lens is clean and free from debris. Check if the sensor is properly oriented to detect movement. If the bulb is dimmable, ensure it's not set to a level that prevents sensor activation. Test with a non-dimmable bulb to rule out compatibility issues.
Light flickers or is dim
This may indicate an issue with the bulb. Try replacing it with a new, compatible E27 bulb. If using a dimmable bulb, check its specifications and ensure it is compatible with the luminaire's dimming capabilities.
Water ingress
While rated IP44, ensure all seals are intact and the fixture is mounted correctly to allow water runoff. If significant water is found, inspect for damage and ensure all connections are properly sealed.
