Description
This is a flat disc LED lamp with a GX53 cap, made for the shallow fittings that will not take a conventional bulb. The face is white and diffused, and the light leaves it across a wide spread rather than a tight beam, so it fills a recess evenly. Output sits at 960 lumens from 12W, and the colour is a crisp neutral white at 4000K: clean and a little brisk, good where you want to see clearly rather than settle in. It is not dimmable, so pair it with a plain switch.
GX53 lamps live in low-profile places. We fit them in kitchen cabinet and plinth lights, in shallow ceiling fittings where depth is tight, and in cupboards, larders and wardrobes where a working light matters more than mood. The cool white reads well against pale worktops and white units, and it suits utility rooms, garages, workshops and home offices. It is for dry rooms indoors, on ordinary mains, so keep it out of shower zones and away from anywhere that gets wet. If you want something softer for a sitting room, one of the warmer versions in the range will serve better.
The body is white throughout, with a plain circular face that disappears into the fitting once lit. Cleaning: with the power off at the switch and the lamp cool, wipe the face with a dry cloth to clear dust and kitchen film, which dulls the output before anything else does. It carries a two year warranty. We stock this GX53 shape in warm white as well as this neutral tone, in a lower output for smaller recesses, and in dimmable versions where a dial or trailing edge control is part of the plan. The fitting itself is sold separately.

Frequently Asked
What size is this lamp?
It measures 74mm across the face and 28mm deep, which is what allows it to sit in slim cabinet and low-profile ceiling fittings.
Can I use it on a dimmer?
No, this version is non-dimmable and should run from a standard on/off switch. If you need dimming, the range includes dimmable GX53 12W lamps in 2700K, 3000K and 4000K.
How bright is it, and how far does the light spread?
It gives 960 lumens from 12W, across a 120 degree spread, so it lights a wide area rather than throwing a narrow pool.
What does 4000K look like in a room?
It is a neutral cool white with no yellow in it. Good for task areas and storage; for a warmer, cosier light choose the 3000K or 2700K options in the range.
How long is it rated to last?
The rated average life is 20,000 hours, and it carries a two year warranty.
Is it suitable for a bathroom?
It is rated IP20, so it belongs in dry indoor locations only and should not be used in shower or bath zones.
