Two fixtures quoting the same output can light a room completely differently depending on beam angle, and the angle is the number that is usually missing. Ask for it before you compare anything else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IP ratings are honest and widely misread. The second digit covers water, and IP44 means splashing, not rain. A fixture that will sit outdoors overnight in British weather wants IP65 as a floor, and the cable gland matters as much as the housing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Load limits are quoted for a static, evenly distributed weight on a level floor. A trestle rated at eighty kilos is not rated for eighty kilos of people leaning on one end of it. Halve the figure for anything a guest can touch and you will be about right.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u03a4\u03b1 Lumens, \u03bf\u03b9 \u03b1\u03be\u03b9\u03bf\u03bb\u03bf\u03b3\u03ae\u03c3\u03b5\u03b9\u03c2 IP \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c4\u03b1 \u03cc\u03c1\u03b9\u03b1 \u03c6\u03cc\u03c1\u03c4\u03c9\u03c3\u03b7\u03c2 \u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03c6\u03ad\u03c1\u03bf\u03bd\u03c4\u03b1\u03b9 \u03bc\u03b5 \u03b5\u03b9\u03bb\u03b9\u03ba\u03c1\u03af\u03bd\u03b5\u03b9\u03b1 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03b5\u03be\u03b1\u03ba\u03bf\u03bb\u03bf\u03c5\u03b8\u03bf\u03cd\u03bd \u03bd\u03b1 \u03c3\u03b1\u03c2 \u03bb\u03ad\u03bd\u03b5 \u03c0\u03bf\u03bb\u03cd \u03bb\u03af\u03b3\u03b1 \u03b1\u03c0\u03cc \u03bc\u03cc\u03bd\u03b1 \u03c4\u03bf\u03c5\u03c2.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":545,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[43],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-520","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-buying-guides"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=520"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/520\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":527,"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/520\/revisions\/527"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/545"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/reveltogo.com\/el\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
