Description
Ten tiny emitters sit in a single slim black channel, casting a row of narrow warm white beams down from the ceiling. The body measures 280mm end to end and is barely wider than a finger, so once it is in it reads as a fine dark line rather than a light fitting. The LED is integral and the driver is supplied with it, drawing 24W across the whole strip. There is no dimming, so it runs at full output when switched on.
We reach for it where a line of separate downlights would look fussy, and where the point is accent light rather than a general wash. It earns its place over a kitchen worktop, along a hallway, above a run of open shelving or across a landing, picking out surfaces in tight warm pools. Keep it to dry rooms indoors; it has no weather or splash protection, so shower areas and covered porches are out. Anyone after a quiet, almost invisible source will get on with it.
Black face and body alike, it sinks into a dark ceiling and draws a deliberate stripe across a pale one. The beams are tight rather than broad, so the light lands where it is aimed instead of spreading across the whole room. Dust is the only real upkeep: kill the circuit, let it cool, then run a dry cloth along the face and lift anything stubborn with a barely damp corner and no solvents. It carries a three year warranty. We stock the same strip in white if black is too hard against your plaster, and shorter versions run through the range for tighter runs. The LED is built in, so there is nothing to buy alongside it.

Frequently Asked
How bright is it, and what shade of white?
The strip gives 1680 lumens in total at 3000K, a warm white that sits comfortably with wood, brass and painted plaster.
Can I put it on a dimmer?
No. This one is non-dimmable, so it should be run from a plain on/off switch.
What are its overall dimensions?
It measures 280mm long, 45mm wide and 42mm deep, and weighs 0.53kg.
Do I need a separate driver?
No, the driver comes with it. The fitting is Class 2, double insulated.
How long should the LED last?
It is rated at 30,000 hours, and colour rendering is above 90, so finishes and fabrics keep their proper tone.
How should I clean it?
Switch off the circuit and let it cool, then wipe the black face with a dry cloth. Avoid sprays and abrasive creams.
