Description
Soln is a round LED ceiling light in white and gold: a white outer band, with a gold inner ring framing a white diffuser recessed inside it. It measures 380mm across and only 75mm deep, so it sits close to the ceiling as a flush ceiling light rather than hanging into the room. The body is metal, and it draws 17.5W to give 945 lumens of 4000K light. Compare that lumen figure when choosing between ceiling lights: lumens tell you how much light you get, where watts only tell you the power used.
It is rated IP20 and made for indoor use, so it belongs in dry rooms: a living room, bedroom, hallway, landing or study. At 75mm deep it keeps headroom where a pendant would crowd a low ceiling; before you order, check for a clear 380mm circle away from coving, beams or a smoke alarm. At 4000K the light is a cool, neutral white, crisper than the warm white of a traditional bulb, and good for reading, working or getting ready. In a larger living room, we would plan a lamp or two alongside it.
It fixes straight onto the ceiling surface, so there is no cut-out to make. A 120-degree beam spreads light widely rather than pooling it beneath the fitting, and Ra 80 is the usual colour rendering for general home lighting. Because it is not dimmable, it wants a standard on/off switch rather than a dimmer. The LED has a rated lifespan of 25,000 hours, and at 784g the fitting is light to hold in place while it goes up. Against a white ceiling the white band almost disappears and the gold ring is what you notice; it sits well with brass or gold door furniture, picture frames and lamp bases.

Frequently Asked
Can I put this light on a dimmer switch?
No. It is not dimmable, so it needs a standard on/off switch. A non-dimmable LED fitting on a dimmer can flicker or buzz, so if the room has a dimmer, have it swapped for a standard switch when the light goes up.
Can I use it in a bathroom?
We would not. It is rated IP20, which gives no protection against water, so it belongs in dry rooms. A light near a bath or shower needs a higher rating, usually IP44 or above.
How bright is it, and what colour is the light?
It gives 945 lumens from 17.5W. At 4000K the light is a cool, neutral white, crisper than the warm white of a traditional bulb, and its Ra 80 colour rendering is the usual standard for home lighting.
Will it work in a room with a low ceiling?
Yes. At 75mm deep it sits close to the ceiling rather than hanging down, so it keeps headroom where a pendant would get in the way. Check for a clear 380mm circle on the ceiling first.
How long will the LED last?
The LED has a rated lifespan of 25,000 hours. At four hours a day, every day, that works out at more than 17 years of use.
Which parts are white, and which are gold?
The outer band and the diffuser are white. The gold is the inner ring framing the diffuser, and it shows as a fine gold line along the lower edge of the white band too. The body is metal.
