A battery wall light is a portable sconce that runs on rechargeable batteries, eliminating the need for hardwiring. It is ideal for temporary installations, rooms without outlets, or areas where drilling is difficult.
Prices vary by wattage and brand. Generally, a 5W Matkel unit costs between 45 to 70 SAR, while higher wattage models up to 12W range from 80 to 120 SAR. Delivery in Riyadh is usually free.
Most standard models are for indoor use only. However, select models with sealed battery compartments can handle light dust and humidity, making them suitable for covered patios or shaded outdoor areas.
A fully charged lithium-ion battery typically lasts 40 to 60 hours of continuous use, depending on the wattage. With intermittent use (turning it on and off), it can last for days or weeks on a single charge.
