FAQs
What type of bulb does the Tyber1 downlight use?
The Tyber1 downlight uses a standard E27 screw-in bulb. You can choose the bulb type and brightness, up to a maximum of 15W.
Is this light suitable for bathrooms?
The Tyber1 has an IP20 rating, meaning it is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5mm but has no protection against water. It is generally not recommended for areas with direct water spray, such as shower enclosures. It may be suitable for other bathroom areas if moisture levels are low and it's kept away from steam.
What are the dimensions of the downlight?
The dimensions are: Height: 15cm, Width: 9cm, and Depth: 9cm.
What material is the fixture made from?
The fixture is made from painted aluminum.
Can I install this light myself?
The fixture is designed for surface mounting and is relatively lightweight (0.5kg), which can make it suitable for DIY installation if you have basic electrical knowledge and follow safety precautions. Always ensure the power is switched off before installation.
What is the maximum wattage allowed?
The maximum recommended wattage for the E27 bulb is 15W.
Does it come with a bulb?
No, the Tyber1 Surface Mounted Downlight does not include a bulb. You will need to purchase an E27 bulb separately.
Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on
Check that the power supply is on. Ensure the E27 bulb is correctly screwed in and is not faulty. Verify all wiring connections are secure.
Flickering light
This could indicate a loose bulb or a failing bulb. Try tightening the bulb or replacing it with a new, compatible E27 bulb. Check wiring connections for any looseness.
Fixture feels loose
Ensure the mounting screws securing the base to the ceiling or wall are tightened appropriately. Check that the fixture body is securely attached to its base.
