Description
The Gosmelle LED downlight is a slim, round recessed light with a white steel body and a white plastic opal diffuser that sits almost flush with the ceiling and spreads an even, soft glow. It measures 11.7cm across and needs a recess depth of just 2.6cm, so it suits ceilings with little room above them. The LED is integrated, drawing 5.5W and giving 650lm of warm light at 3000K, a gentle tone that feels relaxed and homely in the evening. It is rated IP20, which means it belongs indoors in dry rooms, never in a bathroom or anywhere outdoors.
In a hallway or along a corridor, a neat line of these downlights gives steady, even light with nothing hanging down to catch the eye. We also like them for living rooms, bedrooms and landings, wherever you want a clean, uncluttered ceiling. Because the light is dimmable, a suitable dimmer switch lets you run it bright while you get ready in the morning and bring it down low for a quieter evening. The white trim blends into a white ceiling, so attention goes to the room itself and to the pictures on its walls.
The body is steel and the diffuser plastic, both in white, and there is no switch on the fitting itself because it is switched at the wall. It runs on mains power at 220 to 240V, 50/60Hz, so as a wired-in light it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. The ceiling needs a cut-out 10.5cm across, and the trim is wider than that hole, so it covers the cut edge neatly. The packed weight is 0.216KG. Before ordering, measure the space above your ceiling and check that it allows the 2.6cm recess depth.
