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 1000mA Sunset driver. Both are bought separately: the drivers that suit it are on/off, triac dimmable or DALI or push, and it seats in the 21.5cm recessed base, which comes in white, black or gold.
This is the light engine at the heart of the Sunset range: a round black unit that sits within a matching recessed base, sold separately. It runs at 40W and gives a cool white at 4000K, a clean, daylight-leaning tone that suits working areas and modern rooms. Output is generous and the beam is broad enough to wash a worktop or a stretch of floor rather than throwing a narrow spot. Colour rendering is high, so paint, timber and fabric read true. At 22cm across, it is the largest of the round Sunset formats.
We would use this where a good deal of light is wanted from a single point: over a kitchen island, above a stairwell, or in a hallway that has to work as hard in the morning as it does at night. It is equally at home in a studio or a home office, where cool white keeps things alert. A driver is required and is not supplied, so pair it with one to suit; choose a dimmable driver if you want control over the level. Being rated for dry interiors, it belongs indoors rather than in a shower zone or an open porch.
The engine is finished in black throughout, face included, so it reads quietly against a dark ceiling and draws a neat outline on a pale one. Keep it clean with a soft dry cloth across the visible rim, with the supply off and the unit cool before you touch it, and steer clear of solvents, which will dull the finish. It carries a five year warranty. Recessed bases run right through the range in black, gold and white and in a spread of sizes, so one scheme can put wider apertures over the busy areas and smaller ones where the light only needs to mark a route.

Frequently Asked
Is the driver included?
No. The engine draws 40W and needs a 1000mA Sunset driver, sold separately: on/off, triac dimmable or DALI or push. It also needs the 21.5cm Sunset recessed base to sit in, in white, black or gold.
How much light does it give out?
3480 lumens from a 40W integral LED, at 4000K cool white.
Can it be dimmed?
Yes, but only with a dimmable driver. The driver is a separate item, so specify a dimmable one at the point of choosing.
Does it need a recessed base?
Yes. It is made to sit in a Sunset recessed base, and the matching size for this engine is the 215 x 152mm base. Bases are offered in black, gold and white.
Is the LED replaceable?
No, the LED is integral to the engine, so there is no lamp to change.
Is it a good choice over a kitchen worktop?
It suits that job well. The beam is a wide 50 degrees, so it covers a working area rather than a small pool, and the high colour rendering keeps food and finishes looking honest.
