{"product_id":"kara-24w-dimmable-led-recessed-panel-light-white","title":"Kara 24W Dimmable LED Recessed Panel Light - White","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kara is a 24W recessed LED panel light with a 296mm diameter white polycarbonate face and edge-lit LED technology that distributes 2270 lumens of 4000K cool white light evenly across the panel surface. The integrated SMD LEDs sit around the perimeter of the panel behind an opal diffuser, creating uniform illumination without visible hotspots or dark zones. The panel mounts into a 285mm ceiling cut-out and projects only 24mm below the ceiling line once installed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for offices, corridors, retail spaces and residential rooms where flush ceiling lighting is needed without the depth for a traditional downlight, the Kara fits ceiling voids as shallow as 75mm. The slim profile makes it compatible with ceilings where structural depth is limited, including suspended ceilings, plasterboard on battens, and timber joists with minimal clearance above. The panel operates on 230V mains with a constant-current driver housed within the fitting, and is dimmable when paired with a compatible LED dimmer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe white polycarbonate construction gives the panel a neutral finish that blends into white ceilings, and the Class II double-insulated design means no earth connection is required during installation. The 110° beam angle provides broad room coverage from a ceiling-mounted position, making a single panel suitable for illuminating approximately 8-10m² of floor area depending on ceiling height and required lux levels. The CRI rating of \u0026gt;80 renders colours accurately enough for general workspace and domestic use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe L70B50 rating of 30,000 hours means the LEDs will maintain at least 70% of their initial brightness after 30,000 hours of operation, equating to approximately 10 years at 8 hours per day. Knightsbridge offers a compatible emergency conversion kit (EMKIT2L, sold separately) that converts the Kara into emergency lighting for commercial installations requiring fire-safety-compliant maintained or non-maintained emergency illumination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e296 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecessed Depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMinimum Void\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e75 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCut-out Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e285 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstruction\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolycarbonate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eClass\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eII\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePrimary Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e230V 50Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiffuser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOpal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Technology\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSMD LED\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLamp Included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDimmable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes*\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eL70B50\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30000\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEnergy Rating (Class) post 2021 SLR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBeam Angle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e110\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCCT\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4000 K\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLight Colour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCool White\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLumens\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2270 lm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLumens (Light Source only)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2955 lm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWattage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEfficacy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e127.32 lm\/W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCRI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026gt;80\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDriver Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConstant Current\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/products_6228254_datasheet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eProduct Specification Sheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/manual_1646930.pdf\" target=\"_self\"\u003eProduct Manual\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat ceiling void depth is required?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Kara requires a minimum 75mm void above the ceiling surface to accommodate the panel depth and driver.
