LP Hint post lamp is a complete, compact lighting machine. Behind the simple exterior, it stores pole connection, ballast, reflector and adjustment facilities. LP Hint was designed to accommodate easy, fast maintenance, so Louis Poulsen Lighting carries over the LP Icon Mini concept – tool-free light-source replacement.
LP Hint is available in two basic versions, one with a completely closed surface and one with an opal top shade, which helps to illuminate the actual fixture while also functioning as directional pointer in, for instance, hilly areas. Shades are available in clear glass mounted in the fixture or as a lowered shade, so that the fixture points an illuminated edge downwards. This edge helps in-dicating directions and also lends decorative effect to places where illumination should be more than merely a discrete aspect of the surroundings such as pedestrian streets and paths in urban environments.
LP Hint is designed as a truncated cone, but with vertical sides. Its simple design makes LP Hint easy to fit into contemporary architecture. Viewed from the side, the post lamp appears rectangular, but changes to a more rounded shape seen from other sides.
LP Hint comes with fixture head in painted aluminium with sprayed, textured surface. Its diffuser is made of opal flow-formed acrylic. The reflector is metallised, flow-formed polycarbonate. Fixture housing is cast aluminium. Shades come in hardened, clear glass or flow-formed acrylic. LP Hint is available in three variants: Basic, Opal or Opal with shade. LP Hint can be mounted on poles measuring Ø 115mm or Ø 60mm.
