Visual Comfort ASH 10 Outdoor Wall Light | Sean Lavin | IP65 | Bronze or Charcoal | Dark Sky

The ASH 10 Outdoor Wall Light by Sean Lavin for Visual Comfort Modern is a commercial-grade architectural exterior fixture built for installations where durability, Dark Sky compliance, and output flexibility are all required simultaneously. The robust aluminum and stainless steel housing is IP65 wet-rated and available in Bronze or Charcoal finishes. The integrated LED delivers either a focused column of light (Clear Cylinder diffuser) or a softer, more diffused wash (Clear Lens diffuser) — and the diffuser is removable, which eliminates uplight entirely for fully Dark Sky-compliant applications. Available in 2700K and 3000K, in Low Output (8W) and High Output (18W) configurations, with optional surge protection and photocontrol. Universal 120V–277V. 0-10V and ELV dimmable. cETLus listed.

⚠️ Pricing note: One variant — Bronze / Button Photocontrol + Surge Protection / 2700K Low Output (SKU: MD-VCC-700OWASHL92710CZUNVPCSP) — is currently priced at $0.00. Please correct this in Shopify admin before publishing. All other variants are priced at $629 (base) or $679 (with surge protection).

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between Clear Cylinder and Clear Lens diffusers?
A: The Clear Cylinder produces a more focused, columnar beam of light — higher lumen output and more directional distribution. The Clear Lens produces a softer, more diffused wash with slightly lower output. Both are removable for Dark Sky compliance. Choose Cylinder for accent and facade applications; choose Lens for ambient porch and patio lighting.

Q: What does Dark Sky compliance mean for this fixture?
A: Dark Sky compliance means the fixture minimizes light pollution by directing light downward rather than toward the sky. The ASH 10 achieves this with its downward-directed distribution. Removing the diffuser entirely eliminates all uplight for fully compliant Dark Sky operation.

Q: What is surge protection and do I need it?
A: The surge protection option adds a transient voltage surge suppressor to the fixture — recommended for installations in areas prone to electrical storms, power fluctuations, or commercial environments where power quality can't be guaranteed. Residential low-risk locations generally don't require it, but it's low-cost insurance for any outdoor fixture.
