Description
The driver is not included, and neither is the recessed base. This is the Sunset LED engine on its own: the light source that drops into a Sunset base and runs from a 250mA Sunset driver. Both are bought separately: the drivers that suit it are on/off or triac dimmable, and it seats in the 85mm recessed base, which comes in white, black or gold.
A compact recessed downlight built around a black LED engine, drawing 10W and giving 860 lumens of cool white light at 4000K. The beam is a medium spread, wide enough to light a worktop without leaving hard edges between fittings. Colour rendering is high, so timber, paint and food all read true beneath it. The black face keeps the fitting quiet in the ceiling rather than pulling the eye towards it. We reach for this one where a room wants steady, even light and as little visible hardware as possible.
Cool white suits kitchens, utility rooms, home offices and hallways, where light should feel crisp and awake rather than low and warm. Retail displays and shelving alcoves take it well too. It is happiest in dry rooms, so keep it clear of splashes and out of a shower enclosure. The driver is bought separately, which means you can choose a dimmable one and put the run on a dimmer, or a plain one where switching is enough. We would use several across a ceiling rather than one on its own, since the fitting is made for even, repeated light.
Black throughout, face and engine alike, so nothing bright interrupts a dark ceiling. The unit drops into a Sunset recessed base, which we sell separately in black, gold and white across a spread of sizes, so the visible trim can match the ceiling or sit against it. Dust wipes off the face with a dry cloth; there is nothing to dismantle and nothing to unscrew. It carries a five year warranty. The LED is integral, so there is no lamp to change over the life of the fitting.

Frequently Asked
Is the driver included?
No. The engine draws 10W and needs a 250mA Sunset driver, sold separately: on/off or triac dimmable. It also needs the 85mm Sunset recessed base to sit in, in white, black or gold.
How big is the fitting?
It measures 85mm in diameter and 87mm in height, which puts it in the small end of our downlight sizes.
Do I need anything else to use it?
Yes, two things: a Sunset recessed base and a driver. Neither is included with this engine, and we stock the bases in matching sizes and finishes.
Which base pairs with it?
The Sunset 85 x 87mm recessed base with a 75mm cut out is the matching size, available in black and gold.
Can it be dimmed?
It can, provided a dimmable driver is used. With a non-dimmable driver it simply switches on and off.
What sort of light does it give?
860 lumens at 4000K, a cool white with a 50 degree beam, and colour rendering above 90 so shades and surfaces stay accurate.
How should it be cleaned?
A dry cloth over the face is enough. Avoid sprays and solvents, and let the fitting cool before touching it.
