London 5 bar

The London range of light fittings are finished in polished chrome, and all feature adjustable heads.

Every fitting in the range is dedicated low energy. This means that they will only accept energy saving bulbs.

The shades are made from white glass.

The 9w candle bulbs used throughout the range fittings are the equivalent brightness of at least a standard 40w candle bulb, but use nearly 80% less electricity.

Low energy

This light fitting uses low energy L1 light bulbs. This makes it a dedicated low energy fitting so it meets the current building regulation limits for low energy lighting.

The CFL bulbs have a life time of upto 8 times more than a standard bulb; as such, they should not require changing for at least 3-5 years with normal use.

What is L1?

L1 is a new type of bulb connector. It is a special type of lamp cap that can only be used with Low Energy bulbs. This means that all L1 light fittings are dedicated low energy fittings. i.e. it is impossible to install a normal high energy incandescent bulb - you can only fit a low energy L1 bulb.

There are various designs and shapes of L1 bulbs, all of which use the latest in technology and provide innovative designs and some of the smallest sizes available today.

The special fitting uses two pins on the bulb and a third, non-metalic pin on the bulb holder. It's this third pin that prevents a non L1 bulb being used. L1 bulb holders are very safe too - because the electrical connections are on the bulb and not in the holder, when the bulb is removed, there are no potentially live connections to touch even for the smallest of fingers.
