Description
The Lumos is a 65mm recessed outdoor downlight with an integrated 15W LED module rated at 3000K warm white, housed in a powder-coated black aluminium body with external cooling fins. The IP54 rating provides protection against dust ingress and splashing water from any direction when the fitting is correctly installed into a suitable exterior surface.
Designed for installation into exterior soffits, covered patios, eaves, porch ceilings and garden room overhangs, the Lumos fits a 65mm cut-out and sits flush with a 22mm profile above the ceiling plane once installed. The modular design accepts interchangeable lens and screen accessories (sold separately), allowing the beam angle and light distribution to be adjusted after installation depending on whether the downlight is lighting a pathway, highlighting a feature, or providing general ambient coverage across a patio.
The aluminium construction and external heat-sink fins dissipate heat generated by the 15W LED module without requiring active ventilation, making the fitting suitable for enclosed soffit installations where airflow is limited. The black powder-coated finish resists UV degradation and provides a low-profile appearance that recedes into dark ceilings and painted timber soffits. The 3000K colour temperature sits in the warm white range, delivering a softer tone than daylight-white LEDs and reducing the harsh contrast often associated with outdoor security lighting.
The non-dimmable LED module is rated for outdoor use and carries a 5-year warranty. Installation requires mains connection via a suitable IP-rated junction box or outdoor wiring system, and the fitting must be earthed. The Lumos is suitable for both residential and commercial exterior applications including hospitality terraces, care home gardens, and residential driveways.

Frequently Asked
What does IP54 mean for outdoor use?
IP54 provides protection against dust ingress and splashing water from any direction. The Lumos can be installed in covered outdoor locations such as soffits, eaves and porch ceilings where it will be exposed to rain splash but not direct water jets or submersion. It is not suitable for fully exposed locations such as open ceilings or ground recesses subject to standing water.
Can the beam angle be changed?
The Lumos uses a modular design that accepts interchangeable lens and screen accessories sold separately by Ideal Lux. These allow the beam angle and light distribution to be adjusted after installation depending on the application. Contact us to confirm which accessories are compatible with this model.
What cut-out size is required?
The Lumos requires a 65mm diameter cut-out. Once installed, the fitting sits flush with a 22mm profile above the ceiling plane. Ensure there is sufficient depth behind the ceiling surface to accommodate the heat-sink fins and cable connections.
Is this suitable for covered patio ceilings?
Yes. The IP54 rating and 22mm low-profile design make the Lumos well-suited to covered patio installations, eaves and garden room ceilings. The warm 3000K output provides ambient light without the harsh white tone of higher colour temperatures.
