Description
This slim LED under-cabinet light puts the controls on the fitting itself: the switch and the brightness control are both built in. You also choose its shade of white: 3000K, 4000K or 5500K, so colour selectable here means warm, neutral or daylight white. It draws up to 9W for up to 1,200 lumens. At 574mm long it suits the underside of a standard 600mm wall unit. It runs at 24V DC, so it is powered through a 24V DC power supply rather than connected straight to the mains.
Fix it beneath kitchen wall cupboards to light the worktop where you chop and read recipes, under an open shelf above the kettle, or over a utility room worktop. The three whites let you match the room: 3000K is a warm white, 4000K a neutral white for clear task light, and 5500K is close to daylight. If the rest of your kitchen is lit with warm white bulbs, we would start at 3000K. Up to three fittings can be linked for a longer run; three together come to 1,722mm, so measure before you order. It is rated IP20, which offers no protection against water, so choose a dry indoor position.
The body is aluminium alloy in a white finish, with a polycarbonate diffuser running almost the full length of the flat bar; polycarbonate is a tough plastic, far less brittle than glass. At 9.2mm thick it sits close to the underside of a cupboard. Colour rendering is Ra 80, the usual level for everyday interior lighting. The lifespan of 35,000 hours works out at roughly 24 years at four hours a day. It is not compatible with an external dimmer, so set the brightness at the fitting. If you do not need the switch and brightness control, the DAXA-S 9W is the same length without them.

Frequently Asked
Will it fit under a standard 600mm wall cupboard?
Yes. It is 574mm long, 60mm wide and 9.2mm thick, so a standard 600mm wall unit leaves a little room at each end. Check there is a clear, flat strip at least 60mm wide on the underside where you plan to fix it.
What does colour selectable mean on this light?
It means you choose the shade of white it gives: 3000K is a warm white, 4000K is a neutral white and 5500K is close to daylight. Warm white sits well with relaxed evening lighting, while the cooler whites give a crisper light for preparing food.
Can I put it on a dimmer switch?
No. It is not compatible with an external dimmer, so it should not be wired to a dimmer switch. The brightness control is built into the fitting, and that is where you adjust how bright it is.
How many can I link together under a run of cupboards?
Up to three fittings can be linked. Three of them come to 1,722mm in total, so measure the run of wall cupboards you want to light before deciding how many to order.
Can I wire it straight into the mains?
No. It runs at 24V DC, so it is powered through a 24V DC power supply rather than connected directly to the mains. The product specification sheet under Downloads is worth reading before you plan the installation.
What is it made of, and is it waterproof?
The body is aluminium alloy with a white finish, and the diffuser is polycarbonate, a tough plastic that is far less brittle than glass. It is not waterproof: IP20 means no protection against water, so choose a dry indoor position away from direct splashes.
