The Design Story

Why You’ll Love It
The LED is built in, so there is no bulb to buy or match. It delivers 490 lumens at 3000K and a CRI of 80 or higher, runs on 120V, and dims on ELV or triac (CL) dimmers. ET2 rates the LED life at 50,000 hours.
Made for Real Life
The LED is built in, so there is no bulb to find or match. Wipe the finish with a soft damp cloth and skip abrasive or solvent cleaners.
