WAC Lighting WAC-WS-W17218 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the WAC Amherst WS-W17218 wall lantern mount to an existing pancake junction box?
Yes. The Amherst uses AC LED technology with no separate driver or transformer, so it fits on a pancake junction box. It's a hardwired 120V fixture with a 7.25 inch backplate, so make sure the box and any existing mounting footprint sit within that plate.
2) Can this Amherst lantern be installed in an exposed location that gets rain and sprinkler spray?
It's wet location listed and carries ETL, cETL and an IP65 rating, so direct rain and hose-down spray are fine. The same fixture is approved for indoor use, which is useful when you want a covered porch and an interior entry hall to match.
3) What dimmer works with the WAC Amherst LED lantern, and will a standard incandescent dimmer work?
Use an electronic low voltage (ELV) or TRIAC dimmer. A legacy incandescent/magnetic dimmer is not one of the listed options, so spec ELV or TRIAC to get the smooth continuous dimming the integrated LED is designed for.
4) Does the Amherst wall lantern meet California Title 24 and Title 20 requirements?
Yes on both. The Amherst is Title 24 compliant and Title 20 listed, and it's also Dark Sky, which matters on jurisdictions that restrict uplight. It is not Energy Star rated.
5) Can the Amherst WS-W17218 be mounted upside down for an uplight look?
Yes, it can be mounted up or down. The mounting method is listed as wall, up/down, so the same fixture works flanking a door in the usual downward orientation or inverted where a design calls for it.
6) How big is the 18 inch Amherst, and how does it compare to the other sizes in the collection?
The 18 inch version measures 18 inches high by 5.5 inches wide with a 7.25 inch backplate. Amherst also comes in 14 inch and 22 inch heights, plus a matching lantern pendant, so you can scale the entrance versus side elevations and keep one look across the building.
7) Do I need to order lamps separately for the Amherst outdoor lantern?
No lamping to buy. It's a single integrated LED light source, included with the fixture, rated 50,000 hours at 19W on 120V. There's no socket to relamp, so when the source reaches end of life the fixture is replaced rather than re-lamped.
8) What finish and material is the WS-W17218 Amherst, and will it hold up on a coastal or high-traffic exterior?
Body is aluminum with glass panels, offered in matte black (order code WS-W17218-BK). Aluminum plus the IP65 sealing is the standard combination for exposed exterior sconces; the open bottom also means debris falls out instead of collecting, which keeps maintenance simple on a multi-building property.
9) What color and quality of light does the Amherst lantern put out?
Soft white 3000K with a 90 CRI, thrown through a clear seeded glass diffuser in a flood distribution. The seeded glass gives sparkle at the fixture while the open bottom pushes ambient light down a wall or walkway.
