Description
The Salabate is a round recessed LED downlight in white, with an aluminium body and a glass ring around the face that gives the edge a soft, frosted look. It measures 8.8cm across, so it sits in the ceiling as a small, neat circle. The LED is integrated and draws 6W to give 380lm at 2700K, which is warm white: the cosy, slightly golden light most people want in a living room or a bedroom. A deep white cone surrounds the LED in the centre of the face. The IP rating is listed as IP20 and IP44, and we suggest this downlight for dry rooms indoors.
Downlights earn their place where a pendant would crowd the room: low ceilings, hallways, kitchens and living rooms where you want light without a fitting hanging into the room. Fitted in a row, a set of these white downlights gives a calm, ordered line of light across a ceiling, and the warm white tone suits rooms for relaxing as well as rooms for working. Because it is dimmable, the same ceiling can go from bright and practical for cooking or tidying to a low glow for the evening, which makes it a good choice for open-plan spaces that do several jobs.
Glass and aluminium both wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth, so the white face keeps its crisp look with very little effort. It runs on 220-240V, 50/60Hz mains and has no switch of its own, so it is switched at the wall. Before you buy, check the ceiling: each downlight needs a cut-out 6.8cm across and a recess depth of 5.6cm. As a wired mains light, it is installed by a qualified electrician, and the installation instructions come as a download. Packed, each one weighs 0.232KG.
