EXIN 80x80 2.5W Recessed Step Light IP65 Warm White - Grey

The EXIN is a recessed step light built to mark routes and edges with a low, glare-controlled glow rather than to light a whole space. It draws 2.5W and gives 50 lumens at a fixed 3000K warm white, a soft amber-leaning tone that picks out a step nose, threshold or path edge without dazzling anyone walking towards it. The square 80 x 80 mm face sits flush once recessed, throwing light forward and down across the surface immediately below. American buyers will recognise the format as a recessed stair or step light, the small wall-set fitting used to wash light down onto treads and walkways.

The EXIN suits outdoor steps, garden walls, porch reveals, raised decking edges and the low courses of a boundary wall, anywhere a buried run of treads or a level change needs marking after dark. Because it is a guidance fitting and not ambient room lighting, judge it on throw rather than coverage: each unit grazes the surface just below it, so space several along a flight or a path run to keep the marked line continuous. Set them at a consistent height on each riser or wall course for an even rhythm of pools, and keep them low enough that the beam falls onto the walking surface.

Built from aluminium alloy in a grey finish, the EXIN carries an IP65 rating, so it is weatherproof and rated for fully exposed outdoor and wet locations including driving rain. It recesses into the wall, dropping into a prepared opening to sit flush with the surrounding surface, and the 130 g body keeps the fixing light. The fitting is not dimmable and runs on a 220 to 240V AC supply, with an integrated LED rated for around 30,000 hours, so there is no lamp to replace. This step light is part of the wider EXIN range from Kanlux.

Can the EXIN be used outdoors and in wet locations?

Yes. It carries an IP65 rating, which means it is weatherproof and suitable for fully exposed outdoor positions and wet locations, including direct rain. That makes it appropriate for external steps, garden walls and open decking edges.

How is the EXIN installed?

It is a recessed fitting that mounts into the wall, dropping into a prepared opening so the 80 x 80 mm square face sits flush with the surrounding surface. It runs directly from a 220 to 240V AC supply, so no separate low-voltage transformer is required.

What colour of light does it give?

The EXIN has a fixed 3000K warm white output, a soft amber-leaning tone that suits steps and garden walls without harsh glare. The colour temperature is set and cannot be switched.

How do I clean and maintain it?

Wipe the recessed face with a soft, damp cloth to clear grit, leaves and water marks, avoiding abrasive cleaners on the aluminium body. The integrated LED is rated for around 30,000 hours, so there is no lamp to change during normal service.
