Description
The Solis is a single recessed spotlight with an integrated 12W LED producing warm 3000K light, housed in a matt black die-cast aluminium cylinder that sits flush with plasterboard or panel ceilings. The spotlight head rotates 360° and tilts up to 90° from vertical, allowing light to be directed across walls, onto artwork, or down onto task surfaces without needing to reposition the ceiling cut-out.
Designed for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and retail interiors where accent lighting or task lighting is needed without visible surface-mounted fittings, the Solis fits a 100mm diameter ceiling aperture. The recessed installation keeps the fitting profile low, making it suitable for rooms with standard 2.4m ceiling heights where pendant or surface-mounted spotlights would feel intrusive. The adjustable head means a single fitting can serve multiple functions depending on furniture layout changes.
The die-cast aluminium body dissipates heat efficiently, supporting the integrated LED's rated lifespan without requiring external heat sinks or ventilation cut-outs beyond the standard fitting aperture. The matt black finish absorbs ceiling reflections and creates a discreet presence on white or light-coloured ceilings, while blending into darker ceilings entirely. The 3000K colour temperature sits in the warm white range, closer to traditional halogen than cool daylight LEDs, and suits residential interiors where a softer light quality is preferred over the clinical feel of higher Kelvin temperatures.

Frequently Asked
What ceiling depth is needed for installation?
Recessed spotlights typically require 80-120mm ceiling void depth above the plasterboard for the fitting body and electrical connections. Check the full installation depth in the product specifications or contact us before cutting ceiling apertures if working with shallow ceiling voids.
Can this spotlight be dimmed?
No. The integrated 12W LED is not dimmable. If dimming is required, consider a different model from the Ideal Lux range with dimmer-compatible LED drivers.
What is the IP20 rating?
IP20 indicates the spotlight is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5mm but has no moisture protection. It is suitable for dry indoor locations only — not bathrooms, kitchens directly above hobs/sinks, or any outdoor or covered outdoor applications.
How much rotation and tilt does the head allow?
The spotlight head rotates 360° around the vertical axis and tilts up to 90° from vertical, giving full directional control once installed. This allows light to be aimed at walls, artwork, or surfaces without needing to reposition the ceiling cut-out.
