A Compact Wall Light With a Built In Motion Sensor
The Mela is a compact stainless steel wall light with a built in motion sensor, giving automatic lighting for porches and entrances without needing a separate switch.
Materials and Finish
Made from stainless steel and aluminium, giving it a clean, brushed metal look that stands up well outdoors.
How It Works
It takes one GU10 LED bulb up to 7W, not supplied, and is not dimmable. A built in motion sensor detects movement nearby and switches the light on automatically. Wired to Class I, the fitting needs to be earthed as part of installation. As with any hardwired outdoor fitting, we recommend having it installed by a qualified electrician.
Where It Works Best
Rated IP44, the Mela suits porches, front doors and other covered entrances where automatic lighting is useful.
