Exterior wall light Steinel L940 S PIR Bluetooth 14.5W 2×GU10 3000K 1240lm IP44 IK03 230V anthracite/aluminium plastic

Steinel L940 S is an exterior wall light designed for outdoor illumination of façades, entrances and pathways. The luminaire accepts two GU10 lamps and delivers a combined luminous flux of 1240 lm at a warm white 3000 K color temperature. With a total rated power of 14.5 W and 230 V operation, the housing in anthracite and aluminium-coloured plastic provides weather resistance while the IP44 and IK03 ratings ensure splash protection and basic impact resistance. The built-in PIR motion detector and Bluetooth interface allow presence-based switching and remote configuration.

Advantages

The Steinel L940 S integrates motion detection and Bluetooth control with a compact twin-lamp design, enabling adaptive outdoor lighting from a single fitting. Its warm 3000 K light output creates clear, comfortable illumination for entry zones while keeping power consumption moderate at 14.5 W. IP44 protection guards against rain and splashes, and the IK03 impact rating gives basic mechanical robustness. The anthracite and aluminium plastic housing is suited to common façade materials and supports straightforward, replaceable GU10 lamps.

Suitable for

• External walls of residential buildings and apartment entrances
• Pathways and small driveway illumination near doors
• Porches, canopies and covered outdoor entry points

How to use

Mount the Steinel L940 S on a vertical exterior wall at a recommended height that covers the desired detection and illumination area; follow local electrical regulations and switch off mains power before installation. Install two compatible GU10 lamps of suitable wattage and lumen output to achieve the stated combined luminous flux. After mains connection, configure the PIR detection zones and timing via the built-in controls or use Bluetooth to adjust sensitivity, delay and other parameters from a compatible device. Ensure the unit is sealed and fastened to prevent water ingress at the mounting interface.

Usage recommendations

For reliable motion detection and even illumination, position the light so the PIR sensor faces the primary approach route and avoid pointing the sensor toward reflective surfaces or heat sources. Use GU10 lamps with a warm white 3000 K color temperature to maintain the intended light quality. Regularly check the mounting and seals, especially after severe weather, to preserve IP44 protection.
