This Pia Ricco Porch light is made of metal with a black finish,is rust and weather resistant,waterproof. It is a 1-light outdoor sconce lantern and has all hardware included to install to your outlet box,this is easy to install(about 15 minutes after you remove your old light or 10 to 15 minutes to install to your outlet box). This has a CFCI with 2 receptacle and a rectangle shape with clear glass shades and a maximum of 60 watts for the E26 bulb. It is a quality built lantern that will give you a lot of service.

I have never seen an outdoor carriage light with a built in outlet before so I was excited to give this light a try. It has a classic timeless look to it that doesn’t look too old but not too modern. Just a simple clean look. It accepts a standard base bulb but because the glass is clear an “Edison” style led with the exposed “filament” will look best in this. The best feature though is the built in gfci outlet. This will make plugging in holiday lights by my door a breeze. Just a super great idea. I really love this light and recommend checking it out.

I have always wanted outdoor receptacles so I don't have to run extension cords out of the window. It lets A/C out in the summer, heat out in the winter, and allows bugs to come in. I got a quote from an electrician to install some outdoor receptacles, but it was too much money. When I came across this light, I had to have it. Most of my tools are battery or gas, but I still have quite a few 120v electric tools. I have my pressure washer, air compressor, blower, and tiller. I'm still waiting to install this light permanently. I didn't want to cut the shingles like I did with the old fixture. I decided to purchase a siding mounting block, but it has not arrived yet. I put it up temporarily to see how it looked. It looks great, I really like the simple design. It feels durable with the metal frame and crystal clear glass. This light takes a standard e26 base bulb up to 60w. There are a few things I like about this light compared to my old light. Changing light bulbs is so much easier. I don't have to get a ladder, unscrew the screws, and pop the top off just to change the bulb. All I'll have to do now is reach up, unscrew the old bulb, and screw the new bulb in. Another nice thing about having the open bottom fixture is that it won't fill up with dead bugs. The bugs will just fall down and blow away. Having 4 glass side panels and an open bottom allows light to be dispersed better than the old light. This light actually lights up my porch and steps. The old light kind of just shined upwards. Although these are nice features, my favorite part of this light is the 120v 2 plug receptacle. The receptacle is ETL listed. It's also GFCI protected and can handle up to 15 amps. This means it can power up to 1800 watts. This is more than enough for the tools I plan on plugging into the light. I would like to point out that if you use a switch, it needs to be in the on position to get power to the light and receptacle. I don't want to leave my light bulb on all day when I need to use the 120v sockets. There are a couple of options for this. You can use a dusk to dawn bulb, smart bulb, or smart socket to control the light separately from the receptacle. Personally, I chose to get an outdoor smart socket for my setup. This will let me use any standard bulb. I can leave the switch in the on position to power the 3 prong sockets and remotely turn off the bulb from an android or alexa device. If you don't have outdoor plugs and run extension cords out of your windows, I suggest you give this light a try.
