Recessed ceiling lights designed to deliver adjustable, low-profile illumination for bathrooms, kitchens and living rooms, ALUSSO LED Downlights Ultra Slim promise discreet, practical lighting. The slim profile keeps ceilings uncluttered while selectable colour temperatures let rooms shift from cosy to task-ready. Are these the right choice for shallow ceilings and moisture-prone spaces?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Light Output: 5W SMD LED with a 120° beam angle, designed for bright, wide coverage
- • Best for: Homes and rooms with shallow ceilings that need splash-resistant recessed lighting
- • Not ideal for: Outdoor locations exposed to direct rain or full submersion
Ultra-slim recessed downlight with selectable 3000K, 4000K or 6500K colour temperatures. Direct 230V connection removes the need for an external transformer and supports trailing-edge dimming.
Low-profile installation - with 29.1mm ultra-slim housing
The lamp body measures just 29.1mm high and 94.5mm in diameter, requiring a ceiling cutout of 75-85mm, with two springs on each side for secure mounting. Direct connection to 230V means no external driver or transformer is necessary.
Fits shallow voids such as loft conversions and suspended ceilings while maintaining a neat, flush finish. Stable springs keep fittings firmly in place once installed.
Flexible colour options - with selectable 3000K, 4000K or 6500K
A small green toggle switch on the fitting allows selection between warm white 3000K, neutral 4000K and cool 6500K before installation. Colour temperature is fixed after the choice is made.
Choose warmer light for relaxing rooms or cooler light for kitchens and workspaces, enabling consistent mood and task lighting across different rooms. Changing colour requires accessing the switch at install time.
Dimmable and efficient - with SMD LED and trailing-edge dimmer compatibility
SMD LED technology delivers high efficiency and good heat dissipation, saving up to 90% energy versus halogen, and supports dimming from 10% to 100% when used with a compatible trailing-edge dimmer; the dimmer is not included.
Smooth brightness control supports ambience and task lighting while cutting energy use. High output from a 5W fitting keeps rooms well lit with low running costs.
