Full details

The Long Life Lamps Company 8W LED Fire Rated Downlight is an ideal solution for homeowners and contractors seeking a versatile, safety-compliant lighting fixture for kitchens, living spaces, and bathrooms. It offers the key benefit of four selectable colour temperatures to match any interior aesthetic, though users should note that changing the temperature requires removing the front bezel plate, which is less convenient than an integrated wall switch.

FAQs

Can this light be used in a shower area?

Yes, the IP65 rating makes this unit suitable for use in bathroom zones, including directly above a shower.

How do I change the colour temperature?

Does this product require a fire hood?

No, this is a built-in fire-rated downlight compliant with BS476 Part 21, meaning it maintains the fire integrity of your ceiling for up to 90 minutes.

Is this downlight dimmable?

Yes, it is dimmable, provided it is paired with a compatible LED-rated dimmer switch.

What is the lumen output range?

The output ranges between 780LM and 900LM depending on the colour temperature selected.

Troubleshooting

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Flexible colour temperature options
  • High IP65 rating for bathroom suitability
  • Comprehensive fire safety certification
  • Energy-efficient 8W LED design

Cons

  • Colour switching requires removing the front bezel
  • Not suitable for adjustment via wall switch
  • Requires installation of a compatible dimmer switch

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should always be performed by a qualified electrician to ensure adherence to building regulations regarding fire safety. The unit is designed for recessed ceiling mounting. Compatibility depends on the dimmer used; always check that your dimmer switch is compatible with the 8W LED load. To clean the downlight, ensure the power is isolated at the consumer unit, then gently wipe the bezel with a soft, dry cloth. Never use harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the white finish. Since the colour temperature is adjusted via an internal mechanism accessed through the front bezel, plan your desired colour setting before completing the final installation of the trim.
