Description
The Simen DSO G/W is a round recessed spotlight that drops neatly into the ceiling to give a clean, directional point of light. It takes a single Gx5.3 or GU10 lamp rated up to 10W, accepting an MR16 or PAR16 light source, so the beam character and brightness follow whichever lamp you fit rather than a fixed integrated module. American buyers will recognise the format as a small recessed can light or recessed spot, sized to the lamp rather than to a larger trim.
Designed for indoor ceilings, this fitting suits hallways, landings, kitchens and living spaces where you want discreet accent or task light over a worktop, picture or seating zone. Because the output depends on the chosen MR16/PAR16 lamp, coverage and throw are set by that lamp's beam angle: a tighter beam picks out a single object, while a wider one washes a broader patch of floor or wall. The compact 42mm depth means it fits ceiling voids where deeper recessed fittings would not, and several can be run in a line to build even coverage across a room.
The body is aluminium alloy in a gold and white finish, with a round Ø75 profile measuring 75mm across and 42mm deep, and a light weight of 80g. It mounts recessed into the ceiling and is rated IP20, so it is for dry indoor positions only and should be kept clear of bathrooms, porches and any damp or exposed location. It runs on 12V AC, 12V DC or 220-240V mains depending on the lamp specified. The Simen range includes further recessed spotlights to match across a scheme.

Frequently Asked
Is a bulb included with this spotlight?
No, the lamp is supplied separately so you can choose the brightness and beam you need. The fitting accepts a Gx5.3 or GU10 cap taking an MR16 or PAR16 light source rated up to 10W. Match the lamp voltage to your supply, whether that is 12V or 220-240V mains.
Can this spotlight be used in a bathroom or outdoors?
No, it carries an IP20 rating, which means dry indoor use only. It should not be fitted in bathrooms, showers, porches, carports or any damp or exposed outdoor location. Choose a fitting rated IP44 or higher for those areas.
What beam angle does it give?
The beam is set by the MR16 or PAR16 lamp you fit rather than by the fitting itself. A narrow lamp gives a tight accent beam for highlighting a single feature, while a wider lamp spreads light over a larger area for general or task use.
How do I clean and maintain the spotlight?
Wipe the visible gold and white trim with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth, with the power off and the lamp cool. Avoid solvents or abrasives that could mark the aluminium alloy finish. Check the lamp seats securely whenever you replace it.
