When you bought an incandescent bulb you knew that a higher wattage meant a brighter light. However, wattage really measures power consumption, not brightness. Lumens measure brightness. You can use the chart below to match the wattage of an incandescent to its LED counterpart. LEDs use less power and save money.
Warm lighting is similar to conventional lighting and has a softer feel. This lighting is perfect for living rooms and bedrooms.
Daylight - The colour of the lighting is used to represent ‘daylight colour’ indoors. It has neither the softness of warm white or the starkness of cool white.
Cool white - Is a brighter whiter light and is more suited for the bathroom or kitchen.
Adjustable Downlight & IP20 Rated
This LED downlight is IP20-rated and is made with an adjustable gimbal, allowing it to tilt up and down to a certain degree. It is excellent for highlighting unique architectural structures, decorative elements, artwork, and furniture pieces that you want to show off to your guests!
Besides that, you can utilise this LED downlight in multi-functional rooms like the kitchen, as it is flexible to keep up with the requirements of the space. You can add a few of these LED downlights directly on top of your kitchen island for task lighting, or you can use them as accent lighting in the living room for when you are entertaining your friends and family!
Works with a GU10 Bulb
You can use this LED downlight with any GU10 bulb since it's made with a GU10 lamp holder. However, because it's a dimmable fixture, you may want to pair it with a dimmable GU10 bulb and a compatible dimmer switch to take advantage of its dimming feature!
As for the GU10 bulb, it's available in cool white, natural white and warm white light! Cool white and natural white are both excellent for task lighting. The only difference between the two is that cool white has a crisp bluish tone, whereas natural white light has no shades of blue or yellow. Alternatively, warm white light is perfect for ambient lighting because its yellowish tint can create a relaxing and cosy environment!
Fire Rated to 30, 60 and 90 Minutes; Suitable for Solid, Web, and I-Joist Ceilings
This LED downlight is fire-rated to 30, 60, and 90 minutes of protection for solid joist ceilings and is suitable for web and I-joist ceilings for 30 minutes of protection. This means the hole you cut to install your lights is completely resealed, and your ceiling is fortified to extend the time when the fire will spread (in this case, up to 90 minutes). With this, you and your family can escape safely, and the damage to your home’s structure will not be as bad!
Only a fire-rated downlight can fully restore the compromised fire integrity of a ceiling when you cut a hole to mount your lights. This is because it has an intumescent pad that activates when exposed to a particular temperature, allowing the fixture to block even the tiniest gaps where the fire may potentially slip through.
Effortless Installation! Twist & Lock Mechanism
The installation of this LED downlight is nowhere near complicated because it is equipped with features that streamline the process! It has a loop-in/out terminal block with push-fit connectors and a twist and lock mechanism that makes bulb changing effortless!
Aside from that, this LED downlight is mains-powered; therefore, you do not need to purchase a separate driver or transformer to make it work! All you have to do is plan the positioning of your downlights, trim the cut-out hole, wire your lights directly to the mains circuit, and add a bulb of your choice. Once you are done, you can clean up and enjoy your stunningly brilliant space!
Insulation Coverable
Since this is an insulation-coverable LED downlight, you can place loft insulation loosely over its rear. However, this is only allowed if you pair it with a GU10 LED lamp that has a maximum power of 7w. Other downlight models will not permit you to do this, but it is a necessary step since insulation helps your home to expel heat quickly. This will assist in decreasing the warmth trapped in your space and lower your electrical bill!
When it comes to recessed fixtures, don’t cover them with anything unless there’s a phrase saying that you can, or you have to consult your supplier or manufacturer to see if you can use insulation with your lights.
Open Can Design & Beautiful Polished Chrome Finish
With its simple round bezel and beautiful polished chrome finish, this LED downlight will not have a hard time matching your existing decor and furniture pieces, as well as your future aesthetics. Whether you plan to do a modern layout, a traditional style or a fusion of both, you can expect this LED downlight to blend in flawlessly as if it was intended to be there from the beginning! So, if you want to explore many design schemes without having to make drastic modifications, consider adding these neutral LED downlights that go well with everything!
Also, this LED downlight has an open-can design, which makes it more practical. Its improved cooling system will guarantee that the GU10 bulb you use with it lasts throughout its long average lifespan!
