Capsule LED Satin White Glass Bath Vanity Light, 18 to 36 in, Black / Natural Aged Brass or Polished Chrome, by Maxim

The Maxim Capsule bath vanity light is a transitional fixture for a bathroom vanity, a powder room or a dressing area. It comes in widths from 18 to 36 in, with built-in LED, in Black / Natural Aged Brass or Polished Chrome.

The LED is built in, so there are no bulbs to replace, and it gives 500 to 1200 lumens, with a color temperature you set at install. Maxim rates it for Triac dimming. Satin White glass softens the light and cuts glare at eye level. Choose Black / Natural Aged Brass or Polished Chrome to match the faucets, towel bars or cabinet pulls; it suits Transitional schemes.

Where it works best

Choose a vanity light about three quarters the width of the mirror and never wider than it. Set it about 6 ft 3 in to 6 ft 8 in up, which usually lands 3 to 4 in over the mirror frame. Over a double vanity, center one light over each sink or run one long fixture across both mirrors. For the most even light on the face, add a sconce on each side of the mirror at about eye level.

Who this is not for

The 36 in size is meant for a long or double-vanity mirror; on a single mirror, choose a size no wider than the glass. It is damp rated for bathrooms, but not for inside a shower enclosure.

Why we carry Maxim

Maxim matches its finishes across collections, so a chandelier, its pendants and its sconces read as one scheme. That is how we build a room around one fixture.

Care and installation

Dust with a soft, dry cloth; clean glass with a lint-free cloth and glass cleaner, with the power off. Have a licensed electrician wire it. Assembly sheets: 39561 (PDF), 39562 (PDF), 39563 (PDF), 39564 (PDF).

Frequently asked questions

What size Capsule vanity light fits my mirror?

The 18 in size suits a mirror about 24 in wide or wider. The 24 in size suits a mirror about 32 in wide or wider. The 30 in size suits a mirror about 40 in wide or wider. The 36 in size suits a mirror about 48 in wide or wider. Never choose a light wider than the mirror.

What height should a vanity light go?

About 6 ft 3 in to 6 ft 8 in (190 to 203 cm) up, or 3 to 4 in over the mirror frame, so it lights the face without glare.

Does it need special bulbs, and can it dim?

No bulbs needed; the LED is built in. It dims with Triac dimmers.

Can I use it in a bathroom?

Yes. It is damp rated for bathrooms; keep it out of direct shower spray.
