Round LED Recessed Downlight 3W 6000K Daylight White – Ø75mm Cut-Out – 240 lm – For Hallway & Living Areas – 5-Year Warranty

Why choose the Round LED Recessed Downlight 3W

This fitting is designed for spaces where a low-profile, no-fuss recessed spotlight is needed without the cost or complexity of a larger luminaire. The aluminium body keeps heat dissipation efficient, the 220–240V on/off driver requires no additional gear, and the Ø75mm cut-out fits the majority of standard ceiling back-boxes already in place across residential and light commercial buildings.

• Running cost: At 3W per fitting, a corridor with ten downlights consumes just 30W total, cutting electricity costs significantly compared with halogen equivalents.
• Light quality: The 6000K daylight-white colour temperature produces a clean, alert-feeling light well suited to task-oriented spaces such as hallways, utility rooms and display areas.
• Build: The die-cast aluminium body dissipates heat effectively, protecting the LED module and supporting the full 50,000-hour rated lifespan.
• Simplicity: The on/off driver connects directly to a standard 220–240V supply with no external transformer or driver module required, keeping installation straightforward.

Where to use it

This 3W downlight is best suited to low-ceiling spaces where ambient or accent lighting is needed rather than high-intensity task illumination. Typical applications include residential hallways, landings, cloakrooms, bathroom ceilings (subject to zone requirements), retail display niches, hotel corridors and small office reception areas. Mounting heights of 2.4–3.0 metres are ideal for achieving even light distribution across the floor plane.

What the specifications mean in practice

• 80 lm/W: Every watt consumed produces 80 lumens of useful light, meaning the 3W fitting delivers 240 lm — adequate for accent and ambient use without over-lighting compact spaces.
• 6000K: A cool daylight-white tone that reads as bright and neutral, helping make narrow or windowless spaces feel more open and well-lit.
• 60° beam angle: A moderately focused beam concentrates light downward with limited spill, making it effective for corridor lighting where fittings are spaced 1.0–1.5 metres apart.
• 50,000 hours: At eight hours of use per day, this equates to over 17 years before the LED module reaches end of rated life, minimising replacement and maintenance costs.
• Ø75mm cut-out: Fits the most common standard ceiling aperture size, allowing direct replacement of existing halogen or CFL downlights without any ceiling modification.

Installation and compatibility

The fitting recesses into any ceiling with a Ø75mm aperture and a minimum void depth to accommodate the 85mm outer diameter body. It connects directly to a 220–240V supply with no external driver required. Dimming is not supported; a standard on/off switch is all that is needed.
