FAQs

What type of bulb does this light use?

This step light uses a G4 bulb. The bulb is not included with the fixture.

Do I need a transformer for this light?

Yes, this is a low voltage light and requires a compatible transformer or LED driver, which is sold separately.

Can this light be used outdoors?

Yes, the Lidded Cast Brass step light is suitable for outdoor use as well as indoor wet locations like bathrooms.

What is the finish of this light?

This particular model has a weathered brass finish.

Is the installation difficult?

Installation involves low voltage wiring and mounting. While doable for those with electrical experience, professional installation is recommended for safety and compliance.

How do I clean the fixture?

Clean the fixture with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.

What does 'sandcasting' mean?

Sandcasting is a traditional metal casting method where molten metal is poured into a mold made from sand. It is known for producing durable and detailed components.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Verify that the transformer/LED driver is powered on, correctly wired, and functioning. Check bulb for burnout and replace if necessary. Ensure all connections are secure.

Flickering light

Check the bulb seating in the G4 socket. Ensure the transformer/LED driver is adequately rated for the load and is not overloaded. Loose wiring can also cause flickering.

Corrosion or discoloration

For the weathered brass finish, this is a natural process. For natural brass, use a suitable brass cleaner. Ensure the fixture is properly installed in its intended environment and not exposed to harsh chemicals.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Transformer/LED Driver: This fixture requires a low voltage transformer or LED driver (not included). Ensure you select one compatible with the total wattage of your installed lights. Consult your electrician if unsure.
  2. Wiring: Connect the low voltage cable from the transformer to the light fixture according to local electrical codes.
  3. Mounting: Securely mount the fixture to the desired surface using appropriate fixings (not included).

Compatibility:

  • Voltage: Designed for low voltage systems (typically 12V or 24V, check specific transformer requirements).
  • Bulb Type: Uses G4 lighting (bulb not included).

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check wiring connections and clean the glass diffuser. For the natural brass finish, a brass cleaner can be used to restore shine, or allow it to develop a patina naturally.
