Description
The Lumos is a 65mm diameter recessed LED downlight from Ideal Lux, designed for outdoor installation with an IP54 rating against dust and water ingress. The fitting houses a non-replaceable 10W LED module that produces 4000K neutral white light, recessed into a black powder-coated aluminium body with integral heat-dissipation fins visible from above.
Built for driveways, pathways, porch soffits and commercial building perimeters where recessed downlighting is needed in exposed conditions, the Lumos sits flush to the mounting surface with a 22mm visible rim. The IP54 rating means the fitting resists dust accumulation and can withstand rain from any direction, but is not rated for submersion or ground-level water pooling. Installation requires a suitable recessed housing or ceiling void depth to accommodate the module and fins.
The 4000K colour temperature produces a neutral white output that sits between warm residential lighting (2700K-3000K) and cool commercial lighting (5000K+), making it suitable for functional outdoor lighting where colour rendering and visibility matter more than ambience. The black aluminium finish blends into dark soffits and ceilings, or contrasts against render and timber when that effect is wanted. The modular design allows for lens and screen customisation, though the standard configuration ships as a fixed beam.
Ideal Lux backs the Lumos with a 5-year warranty covering LED module failure and housing degradation. The 10W power draw keeps running costs low for installations needing multiple downlights across a driveway or building facade.

Frequently Asked
Can this be used in ground-level installations?
The IP54 rating protects against dust and rain from above, but the fitting is not rated for ground burial or situations where water may pool around the fitting. For ground-level use, an IP67-rated recessed uplight would be more appropriate.
Is the LED replaceable?
No. The 10W LED module is integrated into the housing and cannot be replaced separately. The 5-year warranty covers LED failure, and typical LED lifespan in outdoor recessed fixtures exceeds 30,000 hours under normal operating conditions.
What cut-out size is needed for installation?
The 65mm diameter refers to the visible rim. Installation requires a suitable recessed housing or cut-out to accommodate the fitting body and the heat-dissipation fins above. Consult the installation manual or contact us for the exact cut-out dimensions and void depth required.
Is it dimmable?
No. The integrated LED operates at full 10W output on mains power and is not compatible with dimmer switches.
