Battery Operated Wall Lights

Battery operated wall lights are illumination fixtures designed to be installed on walls without requiring a direct connection to a mains power supply. They utilize batteries as their power source, offering flexibility and convenience in locations where wiring is difficult, impractical, or unavailable.

Material

• Housing: Commonly constructed from plastic (ABS, PVC), metal (aluminum, stainless steel), or a combination of both. Plastic housings are lightweight and cost-effective, while metal provides greater durability and a more premium aesthetic.
• Light Source: Predominantly utilize LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) due to their energy efficiency, long lifespan, and low heat emission. Some older models may use incandescent or halogen bulbs, but these are becoming less common.
• Diffuser: Often incorporate a diffuser made of plastic or glass to soften the light output and reduce glare.
• Mounting Hardware: Typically include screws, anchors, and adhesive strips for secure attachment to various wall surfaces.

Purpose

• Ambient Lighting: Provide a soft, general illumination in rooms where a primary ceiling light is insufficient or unavailable.
• Accent Lighting: Highlight specific features, artwork, or architectural details.
• Task Lighting: Offer focused illumination for reading, crafting, or other close-up activities.
• Safety & Security: Illuminate hallways, stairwells, or outdoor areas for increased visibility and safety.
• Decorative Lighting: Enhance the aesthetic appeal of a space with stylish designs and light colors.

Function

• Wireless Operation: Eliminates the need for electrical wiring, simplifying installation and allowing for placement in remote locations.
• Automatic Operation: Many models incorporate sensors (motion, light, or both) to automatically turn on and off, conserving battery life and providing convenience.
• Adjustable Brightness: Some lights offer adjustable brightness levels to customize the illumination to suit different needs and preferences.
• Remote Control: Certain models can be controlled remotely, allowing for convenient operation from a distance.
• Timer Function: Integrated timers can be programmed to automatically turn the lights on and off at specific times.

Usage Scenarios

• Bedrooms: Providing bedside illumination without the need for bedside table lamps or wiring.
• Hallways & Stairwells: Illuminating pathways for safe navigation, particularly during nighttime.
• Closets & Pantries: Providing visibility inside enclosed spaces.
• Bathrooms: Offering soft lighting for nighttime use without the need for wiring near water sources.
• Outdoor Areas: Illuminating porches, patios, or garden paths (models specifically designed for outdoor use).
• Sheds & Garages: Providing illumination in areas without electrical outlets.
• Temporary Lighting: Useful for camping, power outages, or other situations where a temporary lighting solution is needed.

Common Types

• LED Wall Lights: The most common type, offering energy efficiency and long lifespan. Available in various shapes, sizes, and styles.
• Motion Sensor Wall Lights: Automatically turn on when motion is detected, ideal for security and convenience.
• Light Sensor Wall Lights: Automatically turn on when ambient light levels are low, ideal for nighttime use.
• Remote Control Wall Lights: Allow for convenient operation from a distance.
• Dimmable Wall Lights: Offer adjustable brightness levels.
• Decorative Wall Lights: Designed with aesthetic appeal in mind, often featuring unique shapes, colors, or materials.
• Outdoor Wall Lights: Specifically designed to withstand outdoor conditions, typically featuring weather-resistant housings and waterproof components.
• Cordless Picture Lights: Designed to illuminate artwork, often with a sleek and minimalist design.

Battery operated wall lights are electric lamps designed to function by their own source of energy, specifically dry batteries. They are intended for use as lighting fixtures mounted on walls.

The following HS codes are relevant based on the provided information:

• 8513102000: Portable electric lamps designed to function by their own source of energy (for example, dry batteries, storage batteries, magnetos), other than lighting equipment of heading 8512; parts thereof: Lamps: Flashlights.

  • 85: Electrical machines and apparatus; parts thereof. This chapter covers a broad range of electrical devices.
  • 13: Electrical machines and apparatus having individual functions not specified or included elsewhere in this chapter. This heading focuses on specific electrical devices not categorized in other headings within the chapter.
  • 10: Portable electric lamps designed to function by their own source of energy. This subheading narrows the focus to lamps powered by batteries or similar sources.
  • 20: Lamps: Flashlights. This further specifies the type of portable lamp. While "wall lights" aren't explicitly mentioned, flashlights fall under the category of portable, battery-operated lamps.

• 8513104000: Portable electric lamps designed to function by their own source of energy (for example, dry batteries, storage batteries, magnetos), other than lighting equipment of heading 8512; parts thereof: Lamps: Other.

  • 85: Electrical machines and apparatus; parts thereof.
  • 13: Electrical machines and apparatus having individual functions not specified or included elsewhere in this chapter.
  • 10: Portable electric lamps designed to function by their own source of energy.
  • 40: Lamps: Other. This subheading covers portable lamps powered by batteries that are not specifically classified as flashlights. If the wall light does not fit the definition of a flashlight, this HS code may be applicable.

• 9405416000: Luminaires and lighting fittings including searchlights and spotlights and parts thereof, not elsewhere specified or included; illuminated signs, illuminated nameplates and the like, having a permanently fixed light source, and parts thereof not elsewhere specified or included: Other electric luminaires and lighting fittings: Photovoltaic, designed for use solely with light- emitting diode (LED) light sources: Of base metal: Other.

  • 94: Furniture; bedding, mattresses, support, stuffing and similar furnishings; lamps, luminaires, lighting fittings and signboards; prefabricated buildings.
  • 05: Luminaires and lighting fittings including searchlights and spotlights and parts thereof.
  • 41: Other electric luminaires and lighting fittings.
  • 60: Photovoltaic, designed for use solely with light- emitting diode (LED) light sources: Of base metal: Other. This HS code applies to wall lights that are photovoltaic (solar-powered) and use LED light sources.

Regarding HS code 9405416000, please note that the luminaires must be photovoltaic and designed for use solely with light-emitting diode (LED) light sources. The description specifies "of base metal," which may require verification of the material composition.
