Description
The Erinus is a compact recessed LED step light that sits flush in the wall to mark stairs, landings and low-level routes. Running on 12V DC at 0.8W, it gives a soft 15 lumen warm white glow at 3000K, enough to pick out a step edge without dazzling. The square fascia measures 80x20 in nominal terms and frames a gentle downward wash. North American buyers will recognise this format as a recessed stair or step light, designed to graze the tread below rather than light a whole space.
The Erinus suits indoor staircases, hallways, landings and the base of feature walls, where a line of low-level markers helps guide the way after dark. Because it carries an IP20 rating, it is for dry interior use only and should be kept clear of bathrooms, porches and any outdoor or damp location. Coverage is deliberately local: each fitting casts a small pool of light onto the step or floor directly beneath it, so for a flight of stairs several units are typically spaced along the run rather than relying on one. The 3000K tone keeps the effect warm and unobtrusive for evening use.
Built from white plastic with a square 75 x 16 x 75 mm body weighing just 26 g, the Erinus recesses into a prepared wall opening for a tidy, near-flush finish. It runs from a 12V DC supply, so a suitable low-voltage transformer or driver is needed to power it, and it is not dimmable. The warm white LED is rated for around 30,000 hours and delivers Ra 80 colour rendering. The white finish blends into pale walls and skirting. The Erinus is part of a wider range, with matching low-level markers available to light a full staircase consistently.

Frequently Asked
Does the Erinus need a transformer?
Yes. It runs on 12V DC rather than mains voltage, so it must be powered through a suitable low-voltage transformer or driver. One transformer can usually supply several markers along a staircase.
Can it be used outdoors?
No. The Erinus carries an IP20 rating, which means it is for dry indoor use only. Keep it out of bathrooms, porches and any outdoor or damp location.
How is it installed?
It is a recessed mount fitting that drops into a prepared opening in the wall, leaving the square fascia sitting nearly flush. The 80x20 nominal face and 75 x 16 x 75 mm body suit a neat low-level position near each step.
How do I clean it?
Wipe the white plastic fascia with a soft, dry or barely damp cloth to clear dust and marks. Avoid solvents or abrasive cleaners, which can scratch the surface, and do not soak the fitting given its IP20 indoor rating.
