Description
The head here sits inside the housing and pulls out and tilts, so one fitting can sit close to the ceiling line at first and then be aimed at a wall when the room changes. Light comes from an integrated LED running at 7W, tuned to a warm 2700K that keeps timber, plaster and paint looking soft rather than clinical. The driver is supplied with it, so there is nothing further to source on the electrical side. It is non-dimmable, wired to an ordinary switched circuit, and the output holds steady.
We reach for a retractable head like this where a fixed downlight would only wash the floor: over a run of worktop, above a reading chair, or spaced along a hallway to graze a picture wall. The beam is on the tighter side, so it picks out one thing at a time rather than filling a whole room, and a sensibly spaced line of them gives a kitchen or a landing real direction. The 75mm cut-out suits ceilings where a wider aperture would look crowded. Dry indoor rooms are its place, and we would keep it away from steam and splashing.
The visible trim is matt white, with the inner head in black so the source reads as a shadow rather than a bright ring when you glance up. It carries a three year warranty. Wipe the trim with a barely damp cloth once the fitting is off and cool, and keep polishes and solvents off the finish; the LED is integral, so there is no lamp to change over its life. The same fitting is offered in all black if you would rather it vanish into a dark ceiling, and the range also runs to a brighter version and to cooler warm and neutral whites if you are mixing rooms.

Frequently Asked
How much light does it give out?
It produces 610 lumens from 7W, at 2700K warm white. That is a good match for accent and task lighting rather than a single source for a large room.
Can I dim it?
No. This version is non-dimmable, so it should be run from a standard switch rather than a dimmer.
How far does the head move?
The head retracts into the housing and swivels, so you can set it near-level with the ceiling or angle it towards a wall, worktop or picture.
What aperture does it need?
The cut-out is 75mm, and the fitting measures 84mm across the visible face by 85mm deep.
Do I need a separate driver?
No, the driver is included with the fitting.
What happens when the LED reaches the end of its life?
The LED is integral and rated at 30,000 hours, so the fitting is replaced as a unit rather than relamped.
