Spec LED Bath Vanity Light, 18 to 48 in, 5 Finishes, by Maxim

The Maxim Spec 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 48 in, with built-in LED, in 5 finishes.

The LED is built in, so there are no bulbs to replace, and it gives 880 to 2240 lumens at 3000K. It mounts with the shades up or down: down puts more light on the counter and sink, up spreads a softer light across the ceiling. Maxim rates it for ELV at 120V dimming. Choose Black, Bronze, Gold or Polished Chrome to match the faucets, towel bars or cabinet pulls; it suits Transitional schemes. JA8 listed for California Title 24 projects.

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 48 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 has built residential and hospitality lighting from City of Industry, California, for more than 45 years, and stocks deep enough that most finishes ship within days. That makes it a dependable choice when a project has a deadline.

Frequently asked questions

What size Spec 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. The 48 in size suits a mirror about 64 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.

Can it mount with the shades up or down?

Yes. Shades down put more light on the counter; shades up give a softer, wider glow across the bathroom.

Does it need special bulbs, and can it dim?

No bulbs needed; the LED is built in. It dims with ELV at 120V dimmers.

Can I use it in a bathroom?

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