Description

The EvIT is a round recessed downlight fitting that takes a single MR16 lamp on a GX5.3 cap, rated for a maximum of 10W and running on 12V (12V AC or 12V DC). It is supplied as the fitting itself, so the light output, colour temperature and beam angle follow whichever MR16 lamp is fitted, which makes it a flexible choice when a specific tone or spread is needed. American buyers will recognise this format as a recessed can light, sized for a low-voltage MR16 rather than a mains lamp. The aluminium alloy body keeps the trim compact at Ø82mm, sitting flush once recessed into the ceiling.

The EvIT suits hallways, landings, kitchens and living spaces where a clean, low-profile recessed point is wanted across a ceiling grid. Because the fitting is unlamped, coverage depends on the MR16 chosen: a wider beam washes a general area while a narrower beam concentrates light onto a worktop, shelf or feature, so plan spacing around the lamp and ceiling height. Several units are typically run together on a circuit to build an even layout rather than relying on one fitting. It is an IP20 indoor fitting, so keep it to dry interior rooms and away from bathrooms, showers, porches and any damp or outdoor position.

Construction is aluminium alloy with an aluminium finish, weighing just 76g, and the unit recesses into the ceiling on its mount. The GX5.3 holder accepts a standard MR16 lamp, and the 12V supply means it works with a suitable low-voltage transformer or driver rated for the load; check that the transformer matches the total wattage of the lamps on the circuit. Whether the fitting is dimmable depends on the MR16 lamp and the transformer used together. The aluminium trim wipes clean and stays unobtrusive once installed. The EvIT is one of several recessed options in the range for building a consistent ceiling scheme.

Frequently Asked

What size cut-out does it need?

The fitting has an overall trim diameter of Ø82mm and recesses into the ceiling, so the cut-out hole is the recessed aperture beneath that trim rather than the visible trim size itself. Confirm the exact aperture against the fitting depth of 26mm before cutting, and allow clearance above the ceiling for the lamp and wiring.

Does it need a transformer?

Yes. It runs on 12V (AC or DC) on a GX5.3 MR16 lamp, so it requires a low-voltage transformer or driver rather than connecting directly to mains. Choose one rated for the combined wattage of all the lamps on the circuit, allowing for the 10W maximum per fitting.

Can it be used in a bathroom?

No. The EvIT is rated IP20, which is for dry indoor use only, so it should be kept clear of bathrooms, showers and any damp or outdoor location. For those areas a fitting with a higher IP rating is required.

Is it dimmable?

Dimming depends on the MR16 lamp fitted and the transformer driving it, as the fitting itself is supplied unlamped. Pair a dimmable MR16 with a compatible low-voltage dimmer and transformer to dim the output.
