Description
A small round recess light for outside, with a shaped eyelid hood set over the LED so the light drops downwards and the source itself stays out of view. The visible face is 80mm across, finished in a soft sand white that sits quietly against pale render and painted brick. Output is warm white and modest, near 210 lumens, so the effect is a soft scallop of light on the surface below rather than a broad wash. The driver comes with it, and the LED is built in.
Low-level light like this earns its keep along garden steps, beside a path, under a porch soffit or down the flank of a house where you want to see your footing without a bright fitting in your eye line. It is one we reach for where a wall light beside a door would crowd the entrance, and it suits anyone building up a run of small points rather than one bright source. Being weather rated, it is happy with rain and wind on an exposed elevation. It switches on and off and is not dimmable, so plan it as constant background light.
The body is compact and shallow for its diameter, and the matt sand white face resists showing scuffs better than a gloss would. Give the lens an occasional wipe with a damp cloth, power off first, to clear rain spotting, cobwebs and the grey film that collects on any outdoor fitting through winter. Salt air near the coast deserves a rinse more often. It carries a three year warranty. We also stock the round eyelid in anthracite and sand black, plus square eyelid and angled versions in the same range, which makes it easy to keep a whole garden or frontage on one 3W family of fittings. Mixing the round and square faces on the same house rarely works as well as picking one shape and staying with it.

Frequently Asked
What size aperture does it need?
The cut-out is 72mm in diameter, with the visible face measuring 80mm across and an overall depth of 85mm behind.
Is the LED replaceable?
No, the LED is integrated, so there is no lamp to change. It is rated at around 30,000 hours of use.
What colour is the light?
A warm white at 3000K, which keeps stone, timber and brick looking warm rather than blue.
Can I put it on a dimmer?
No. This one is non-dimmable and should be run from an ordinary switched circuit.
Does it need a separate driver?
No, the driver is supplied with the fitting.
How bright is one of these?
Around 210 lumens from 3W, which is intended for marking edges and steps rather than lighting a whole area.
