Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp good for bedside reading?
Yes. The Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp is well suited for bedside reading because it uses an E26 LED bulb base with a 40W maximum, providing focused, controllable light when paired with an appropriate LED bulb. Its swing arms and rotating sconce design let you direct light precisely where you need it, reducing glare and improving task illumination. The fixture is made of iron and brass with a painted finish, offering stable mounting and a sturdy arm for repeated adjustment. It benefits night readers, those who share a bed and need separate task light, and designers seeking a mid century modern accent with functional lighting. As a limitation, the lamp is hardwired and requires wall mounting and professional installation rather than a simple plug-in, so factor installation into bedside placement decisions.
Will the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp work with 110V household wiring?
Yes. The Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp supports a wide input range of 90 to 260 volts AC, so it is compatible with standard 110 to 120V household wiring as well as higher voltage systems. The fixture is designed for hardwired installation with an on/off switch on the body, and it accepts E26 LED bulbs up to 40W, which are commonly available for 110V circuits. This makes the lamp appropriate for most residential rooms in the United States and internationally in locations within that voltage range. For safe and code-compliant installation, homeowners in older homes or unfamiliar with electrical work should hire a licensed electrician to verify box compatibility and wiring connections.
How does the Serge Duckbill compare to other wall sconces for adjustable lighting?
The Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp stands out for adjustable lighting because it offers rotating swing arms and two-arm configurations, allowing targeted illumination over a wider area than fixed sconces. Constructed from iron and brass with a painted finish, it combines durability with a raw, industrial aesthetic that also functions as a focal point in a room. It accepts standard E26 LED bulbs up to 40W, giving predictable light output and energy-efficient operation when using modern LED lamps. This fixture benefits homeowners and designers who want both style and directional control, for example over seating areas or gallery walls. Compared with fixed or single-arm sconces, the Serge Duckbill provides greater flexibility but requires hardwired installation and sufficient wall depth for the 3.9 inch mounting plate.
Can I install the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp myself without an electrician?
No. The Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp is a hardwired wall-mounted fixture and professional installation is recommended. The product requires connection to AC voltage (90 to 260V), secure attachment to a wall electrical box that accommodates a 3.9 inch diameter mounting plate, and advisable adherence to local electrical codes. Its on-fixture switch and wiring should be installed by a qualified electrician to ensure safe grounding and secure fasteners. Homeowners comfortable with domestic wiring might perform the work where local regulations permit, but for safety and warranty considerations, hiring a licensed electrician is the prudent choice.
Is the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp durable for long-term use?
Yes. The Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp is designed for longevity, featuring iron and brass construction with a painted finish that resists everyday wear. Using LED bulbs with an E26 base and practical wattage limits (40W max) reduces heat stress on the fixture and extends lamp life compared with older incandescent setups. The mechanical swing arms and rotating joints are robust by design but, like all adjustable fixtures, benefit from proper installation and occasional tightening of fasteners. It is ideal for frequent-use areas such as living rooms, bedrooms, and hospitality settings seeking a durable mid century modern accent. As a caveat, long-term performance depends on proper installation and protection from excessive moisture since no wet-location rating is specified.
What size Serge Duckbill should I choose for a living room or hallway?
Choose the size based on wall length and the intended visual impact. For single-arm applications, Medium (24 by 16 inches), Large (31.5 by 16 inches), and XLarge (39 by 16 inches) offer increasing reach for task lighting. Two-arm versions extend coverage further with combined widths up to 71 inches in the XLarge upper configuration, making them suitable for long hallways, over sofas, or above console tables. Measure the wall area and leave proportional negative space so the fixture reads as a design element rather than overwhelming the wall. This lamp benefits interiors with mid century modern or Scandinavian design where a bold, adjustable focal point is desired. If unsure, request measurements or contact support@letifly.com for customization guidance.
Are bulbs included with the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp and what kind should I buy?
No, bulbs are not specified as included in the product details, so plan to purchase E26 base LED bulbs separately. The fixture accepts standard E26 bulbs up to 40W, and modern LED equivalents are recommended for long life and energy efficiency. Choose warm white bulbs in the 2700K to 3000K range for cozy ambient light or cooler tones near 3000K to 3500K for task-focused areas. Dimmability depends on the bulb and the circuit; if you want dimming control, select compatible dimmable LED bulbs and a dimmer rated for LED loads. This approach benefits buyers seeking energy savings, predictable lumen output, and a refined finish to match the lamp's mid century modern aesthetic.
Can the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp be customized to fit my layout or ceiling height?
Yes. Letifly Lights & Decor offers customization options for the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp, including lengthening or shortening cords and varying canopy sizes and finishes upon request. These customizations allow the fixture to better align with bespoke layouts, specific mounting heights, or unique design palettes. Contact support@letifly.com to discuss exact measurements and finish options so the lamp integrates seamlessly into your space. Custom work is particularly helpful for interiors with nonstandard wall depths, high ceilings, or specific visual alignments. Note that significant modifications may affect lead time and installation requirements, so plan ahead and confirm any changes with our support team.
Is the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp compatible with standard electrical junction boxes?
It depends. The Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp uses a mounting plate with a 3.9 inch diameter and requires a box size smaller than a standard light box, so compatibility should be verified before purchase. The fixture is designed for hardwired installation and will fit most shallow or specialty boxes, but older or nonstandard junction boxes may need an adapter or a different mounting arrangement. For accurate installation, measure your existing box and compare it to the 3.9 inch plate dimension, or consult a licensed electrician to assess compatibility. This is important for homeowners and installers who want a clean, secure fit and to avoid on-site modifications.
Is the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp suitable for use in bathrooms or kitchens?
Maybe, but caution is advised. The product information does not list an IP or wet-location rating, so the Serge Duckbill Wall Lamp should be assumed suitable for dry interior spaces unless Letifly confirms otherwise. It performs well in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and covered hospitality spaces where moisture exposure is minimal. For kitchens near sinks or bathrooms where steam and splashes occur, verify the fixture's damp or wet location rating with support@letifly.com before installation and follow local code requirements. If a rated fixture is required, consider alternatives specifically listed for damp or wet locations to ensure safety and longevity.
