Microwave Sensor Activation – Instant Light with Minimal Movement
The Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor is a thing of the past. Well, we still have those in some lights, but hey—microwave sensors! It’s a newer, more advanced technology that greatly outplays PIRs. Microwave sensors have a wider detection zone, which makes it a good technology to add to lights. And that’s what this light fixture did.
This LED bulkhead light has microwave sensor activation that allows instant turn-on/off when even a minimal movement is detected. That’s almost futuristic! This allows people to move about in the area without needing to walk to the light switch. Everything is automatic thanks to the sensor.
More importantly, this also serves as an added security function to your space.
Bright Output at 120lm/W
-Let’s talk about the brightness of the light. The fixture only uses 16-30 watts of power, and yet it’s able to produce 120lm/W. Compared to a halogen of the same lumens output, the rated watts will be a shocking 100 watts. Even the more efficient (than halogen) fluorescent bulbs will still use at least 26 watts of power to generate the same brightness. That’s just how efficient an LED is.
Stylish 435mm Profile with Slim Mount Design
Let’s be honest. The light is big. It has a diameter of 435mm. The typical downlight only has an average diameter of 85mm. So is this light discreet? Not a single bit. But it’s not trying to be discreet. This light is there for function rather than style. Even so, it still has a clean white finish and a slim mount design that gives it the aesthetic appeal it needs.
You can easily mount this Wilson LED bulkhead light on the wall or ceiling, depending on where it’s best suited to be installed. Just make sure you have a clear layout of where you want your lights to be. You don’t want to be redoing everything just because you measured wrong, or you got confused on where to install the light.
IP20 Rated – Optimised for Safe Indoor Use
Not all lights are meant for the outdoors. Such is the reality of lights. Because think about it: not all lights will be exposed to water and the outdoor elements. We don’t need the extra materials (and cost) of having a high IP light when the places we’re installing them don’t need high IP protection.
That’s why this LED bulkhead light is rated IP20. Perfect for indoor lighting. It’s got enough dirt and dust ingress protection, but no water/liquid protection. It doesn’t need it where it is going anyway.
But hey, if you want to pay extra for an IP65 light you’re going to install indoors, we’re not stopping you! But we do suggest checking this light first before you make up your mind.
Long-Lasting 40,000-Hour Lifespan and 5-Year Warranty Included
Fun fact: LEDs don’t burn out like your halogen and CFL lamps do. Instead, after it has reached its prime, the light slowly dims. And that’s not even the cool part. Yes, there’s a cool part to a light dying. Because this particular light lasts 40,000 hours before it dies (or dims) down.
What's more, this LED bulkhead light comes with a 5-year warranty that gives you ample time to enjoy your bright, motion detection lights for a very long time (and to the fullest). With this warranty, you’ll be installing a couple of them with peace of mind.
Wide Beam Angle for Uniform Illumination in Shared Spaces
This light is big. Oh, yes. And with its big size comes a wide beam angle. Install this big boy on the ceiling, and you’ll be illuminating a good portion of the room. What this means is you can space this out wider so you only need a few fixtures to light up, say, your corridors.
But why not use a narrow beam angle light for stairs, corridors, and hallways? Well, narrow beam angle lights have more condensed light particles, creating a bright light that’s glaring when it hits the eyes. These are best used to highlight artwork, architecture, and important pieces. Wide beam angle, on the other hand, has bright but softer light that’s easy on the eyes. Perfect for general lighting.
