Nova 830 TV Unit Twin LED Sconce Set

Nova 830 TV Unit Twin LED Sconce is a set that fits either side of a television and casts light from 30 mm acrylic crystal rods onto the wall behind. The box holds two sconces, each 73 cm long and 8 cm wide. The thick rods leave two full columns of light beside the screen.

Highlights

• 30 mm acrylic rod: the thick-rod Nova model; it holds its own beside a large screen.
• Twin set: both share body and light colour; one order covers both sides.
• Battery or hardwired: with no wiring in the wall, choose battery; that box includes 2 × 9V batteries.
• Four bodies, two light colours: gold, silver, anthracite or black; warm light or white light.

Where to use it

• Large-screen TV wall: beside 65-inch and larger screens it balances the screen's bulk.
• Dark painted wall: on anthracite, navy or deep green the thick rod's light reads clearly.
• Panelling and marble-effect boards: on textured TV back panels it brings out the surface.
• Film nights: soft ambient light from both sides with the ceiling light off.

Nova 830 or Nova 815?

Both share the same size and options; the difference is rod thickness and the mark it leaves on the wall.

If your screen is around 55 inches or you want the light in the background, also see the slim-rod Nova 815 set.

Which décor suits the 30 mm rod?

The thick rod makes the body visible too, so match the body colour to your TV unit.

• Gold body with warm light: a warm wall with a walnut unit and beige marble effect.
• Black body with white light: a graphic line beside a black-bezel screen.
• Anthracite body: on grey or concrete-effect walls the body recedes and the light leads.
• Silver body with white light: a clean, airy look with a white lacquer unit.

How to install

1. Plan the layout: set the sconces the same distance from each screen edge, centres level with the screen's centre.
2. Check the wall: before drilling, scan for cables and pipes; on plasterboard use suitable plugs.
3. Hardwired model: switch off the power at the fuse box and have a qualified electrician connect it.
4. Fix: mount both with the 4 screws and 4 plugs, checking they are vertical with a spirit level.
5. Test: on the battery model fit the 9V batteries and switch on; on the hardwired model restore the power.

Frequently asked questions

What size TV does Nova 830 suit?

At 73 cm long, Nova 830 suits 55–65 inch screens in most living rooms, and the 30 mm rod holds its own beside 65-inch and larger ones. With a smaller screen, measure the wall on each side first.

What comes in the Nova 830 box?

Two sconces, 4 mounting screws and 4 wall plugs. The battery option also includes 2 × 9V batteries, so you need not buy any for first use.

What is the difference between Nova 830 and Nova 815?

Only the acrylic rod thickness: 30 mm on Nova 830, 15 mm on Nova 815. Size, body, light colour and power options are the same. The 830 leaves a fuller column of light.

How long does the battery last in Nova 830?

Battery life depends on usage time and battery brand, so we do not quote a fixed figure. For a TV wall lit for hours every day, the hardwired Nova 830 suits better.
