Round LED Recessed Downlight 18W 3000K Warm White – 80 lm/W – Cut-Out Ø145-155mm – For Kitchen, Hallway & Living Areas – 3-Year Warranty

Why choose the Round LED Recessed Downlight 18W

At €7.65 per fitting, this downlight offers a straightforward, no-fuss solution for residential and light commercial ceiling installations. The aluminium housing dissipates heat efficiently, protecting the integrated driver and extending service life. With 80 lm/W efficacy and a 3000K warm white output, it delivers comfortable, consistent light without the running costs of older lamp technologies.

• Efficiency: At 80 lm/W, the 18W draw replaces a 75–100W halogen fitting, cutting energy consumption by up to 80% with no reduction in perceived brightness.
• Light quality: The 3000K warm white colour temperature produces a relaxed, inviting atmosphere suited to living spaces, reception areas and hospitality interiors.
• Build: The die-cast aluminium body and white powder-coated finish ensure long-term structural integrity and a clean aesthetic that blends with standard ceiling finishes.
• Lifespan and warranty: A rated lifespan of 50,000 hours and a 3-year manufacturer warranty reduce both maintenance frequency and replacement costs over time.

Where to use it

This downlight is well suited to domestic and light commercial interiors where a warm, ambient ceiling light is required. Typical applications include kitchens, hallways, living rooms, hotel corridors, retail changing rooms and office reception areas. At a standard mounting height of 2.4–3 metres, a grid of these fittings delivers comfortable general illumination without harsh contrast or glare.

What the specifications mean in practice

• 80 lm/W: For every watt consumed, the fitting produces 80 lumens — meaning the 18W lamp outputs 1,440 lm, enough to replace a 75–100W halogen downlight with a direct energy saving.
• 3000K: Warm white light that renders skin tones and natural materials favourably, making spaces feel comfortable and lived-in rather than clinical or cold.
• Ø145mm cut-out: Fits ceiling openings between 145mm and 155mm, covering the most common halogen and CFL downlight apertures without requiring ceiling modification.
• 50,000 hours: Running 8 hours per day, this fitting lasts over 17 years before replacement is needed, significantly reducing maintenance overhead in multi-fitting installations.
• -20 to 55°C operating range: The fitting operates reliably across a wide temperature range, making it suitable for unheated utility rooms, garages and cold-climate installations.

Installation and compatibility

The fitting mounts into a Ø145mm ceiling cut-out using spring clips and connects directly to a 220–240V mains supply via the integrated on/off driver — no external driver or transformer required. Dimming is not supported on this variant. Clightstore provides a free DIALux light study to help determine the correct number of fittings and spacing for your project.
