Description
The SEIDY is a recessed round downlight built around a single MR16 reflector lamp on a GX5.3 cap, running on 12 volts AC or DC and taking a bulb of up to 10W. It sits flush in the ceiling for a low-profile finish, the lamp tucked behind a neat circular trim measuring 92mm across. Buyers in the US will recognise this as a small recessed can light, sized for a single low-voltage MR16 spot rather than an integrated LED module, which keeps the choice of beam angle and colour temperature down to the lamp you fit.
The fitting suits general accent and task lighting across hallways, kitchens, living rooms and bedrooms, working well in rows to wash a ceiling evenly or as single spots over a worktop or reading nook. Because the light output depends entirely on the MR16 lamp you choose, coverage is best judged by that lamp's beam and brightness rather than a fixed figure, so a wider beam gives soft fill while a narrow one picks out artwork or a shelf. The compact 92mm diameter and shallow 26mm depth make it straightforward to space across a plasterboard ceiling at lower heights. This is an IP20 fitting, so keep it to dry indoor rooms and clear of bathrooms or any damp or sheltered-outdoor positions.
The body is aluminium alloy in a brushed aluminium finish, weighing just 96g, so it loads the ceiling lightly and resists corrosion in normal indoor conditions. It recesses into the ceiling and runs at 12V, so a suitable low-voltage transformer is needed to drive the MR16 lamp; the lamp itself is supplied separately, letting you match wattage, beam and tone to the room. The round trim is easy to wipe clean and keeps a tidy, even line when several are installed together.

Frequently Asked
What size cut-out does it need?
The SEIDY has an overall trim diameter of 92mm, which is larger than the cut-out hole it drops into. Allow for the recessed body and check the recess depth against the 26mm fitting depth, and confirm the cut-out clears your joists and any insulation before drilling.
What bulb does it take and does it need a transformer?
It uses a 12V MR16 reflector lamp on a GX5.3 cap, rated up to 10W. As a low-voltage fitting it runs on 12V AC or DC, so a suitable transformer or LED driver is required. The lamp is not included, so you can choose the beam angle and colour temperature to suit the room.
Can I use it in a bathroom or outdoors?
No. The SEIDY is rated IP20, which means it is for dry indoor use only. Keep it out of bathrooms, shower zones and any damp, sheltered or outdoor locations, and choose a higher-rated fitting for those areas.
How do I clean it?
Switch off the power and let the lamp cool, then wipe the brushed aluminium trim with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could mark the finish, and never use a wet cloth near the live lamp holder.
