Description
The Vidi W 5514 is a round recessed downlight built around an MR16 lamp holder, running on a 12V supply (12 AC or 12 DC) and rated for lamps up to 10W. It takes a Gx5.3 cap, the standard two-pin base used by MR16 reflector lamps, so you choose the beam, brightness and colour temperature by selecting the lamp rather than relying on a fixed integrated source. As a recessed can light, in US terms, it drops flush into the ceiling for a clean, low-profile finish with no visible bulk below the line of the plasterboard.
Because the output depends on the MR16 lamp fitted, the Vidi suits general task and accent duties across hallways, landings, kitchens and living spaces, with several units spaced across a ceiling to build an even wash. Lamp choice sets the spread: a wide-beam lamp covers more floor for ambient layering, while a narrower beam picks out a worktop, artwork or a feature wall. With a slim 77mm diameter, it sits neatly between joists and pairs well with standard ceiling heights, letting you plan a regular grid that keeps light levels consistent from room to room.
The body is aluminium alloy in a white finish, measuring Ø77 by 25mm and weighing just 40g, so it sits lightly in the ceiling void above the cut-out. Mounting is recessed into the ceiling, with the trim held flush by spring clips behind the surface. Rated IP20, it is intended for dry indoor locations only and should be kept clear of bathrooms, porches and any exposed or damp positions. The Vidi is part of a wider range of MR16 downlights, so matching fittings can be specified across a scheme.

Frequently Asked
What lamp does the Vidi W 5514 take?
It is built for a 12V MR16 reflector lamp with a Gx5.3 two-pin cap, rated for lamps up to 10W. The lamp is selected separately, so you can pick the beam angle, output and colour temperature to suit the room. A 12V supply means it works with either AC or DC at 12 volts.
What cut-out size do I need?
The fitting has an overall diameter of Ø77mm, so the ceiling cut-out is the hole the recessed body drops into and sits just inside this trim diameter. Always confirm the exact cut-out against the supplied template before drilling. Keeping to the stated size lets the trim sit flush against the surface.
Can I install the Vidi in a bathroom or outdoors?
No. The Vidi is rated IP20, which covers dry indoor use only, so it is not suitable for bathrooms, showers, porches or any outdoor or damp location. Use it in hallways, kitchens, living rooms and similar protected interior spaces.
How do I keep the downlight clean?
Switch off the supply and let the lamp cool, then wipe the white trim with a soft, dry or barely damp cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners, which can mark the painted aluminium finish. A gentle wipe now and then keeps the trim looking fresh against the ceiling.
