Galoba Ø100 GU10 Round Ceiling Light - Black

The Galoba is a compact round led ceiling light with a Ø100 mm body standing 150 mm tall. It takes a single GU10 lamp on a PAR16 reflector base, running on a standard 220 to 240V AC supply and drawing up to 35W. As a flush mount led ceiling light it sits close against the surface, throwing a directed pool of light from the chosen lamp rather than a wide diffused wash, which makes it a neat choice where a defined spot is wanted over a broad spread.

Suited to indoor rooms such as hallways, landings, studies and bedrooms, the Galoba works well as a single accent or grouped in a line or grid for fuller coverage. Because the output depends on the GU10 lamp fitted, its brightness and colour temperature can be tuned to the room by your choice of bulb. The small footprint suits lower and standard ceiling heights, sitting tight to the surface without dropping into the room. For wider areas, several units spaced evenly give a more even result than one fitting alone, with each one marking a focused point of light below it.

Built from aluminium alloy in a black finish, the Galoba is rated IP20 for dry indoor use, so keep it clear of bathrooms, damp spaces and any outdoor position. It can be wall mounted or ceiling mounted to suit the layout, fixing direct to the surface, and the GU10 lamp is supplied separately so you can specify the wattage and tone you need. Weighing 346 g, it is light enough for straightforward installation. This model sits within the wider Galoba range, which offers further sizes and finishes to match across a scheme.

How many do I need for a room?

Because the Galoba gives a focused pool of light from one GU10 lamp, it is best used in groups across a room rather than as a single fitting in a large space. Space several units evenly to mark even points of light, or use one as a targeted accent over a specific area. The exact number depends on the lamp output you fit and the effect you want.

Is the Galoba dimmable?

The fitting itself does not control dimming, as it simply holds the GU10 lamp. Whether you can dim it depends on the bulb you fit and your dimmer switch, so choose a dimmable GU10 lamp paired with a compatible trailing or leading edge dimmer. Always check the lamp and dimmer are matched for flicker-free performance.

Can the Galoba be used in a bathroom or outdoors?

No. It carries an IP20 rating, which means it is intended for dry indoor use only. Keep it away from bathrooms, damp areas and any outdoor position, and choose a fitting with a higher IP rating for those locations.

How do I clean the Galoba?

Switch off the supply and let the lamp cool first. Wipe the aluminium alloy body with a soft, dry or barely damp cloth, avoiding harsh chemicals and abrasive pads that could mark the black finish. Make sure it is fully dry before restoring power.
