Square LED Surface Spotlight 12W 3000K Warm White – Outer Size 170x170mm – 960 lm – For Hallway & Living Areas – 3-Year Warranty

Why choose the Square LED Surface Spotlight 12W

At under €8, this fitting offers a straightforward, no-fuss upgrade for residential corridors, stairwells and commercial reception areas where surface mounting is the only practical solution. The slim 32 mm body sits flush against the ceiling without bulk, and the 3000K warm white output creates a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere rather than the clinical feel of a cooler lamp.

• Efficiency: 80 lm/W means the 12W draw produces genuine, usable light output while cutting running costs compared to the halogen or incandescent fittings it replaces.
• Light quality: A CRI of Ra>80 renders colours accurately enough for living spaces, retail changing rooms and hotel corridors where appearance matters.
• Build: The white aluminium housing dissipates heat effectively, supporting the 30,000-hour rated lifespan without the yellowing or cracking common in plastic alternatives.
• Simplicity: Standard 220–240V on/off operation with a power factor above 0.9 means no special wiring, no compatibility issues and no additional driver box to conceal.

Where to use it

This fitting is well suited to hallways, landings, stairwells, utility rooms and small living areas where ceiling voids are inaccessible or too shallow for recessed downlights. It also works in commercial settings such as hotel corridors, office breakout rooms, retail back-of-house areas and small meeting rooms — anywhere a clean, square surface fitting at standard ceiling height is preferred over a pendant or track solution.

What the specifications mean in practice

• 3000K: Warm white output that reads as comfortable and domestic rather than clinical, making it appropriate for living areas, hospitality spaces and corridors used in the evening.
• 55° beam angle: A relatively focused spread that concentrates light downward, reducing spill onto walls and making it effective at standard 2.4–2.7 m ceiling heights without wasting output.
• IP41: Protected against solid objects larger than 1 mm and dripping water falling vertically, suitable for indoor use including bathrooms only outside the splash zone.
• 30,000 hours: At eight hours of use per day, this equates to roughly ten years before the light source reaches end of rated life, significantly reducing replacement frequency.
• UGR<22: Glare is controlled to a level acceptable for general circulation and living spaces; for office desk work a UGR<19 fitting would be more appropriate.

Installation and compatibility

The fitting surface-mounts directly to a ceiling backbox or junction plate using standard fixings — no ceiling void is required. It connects to a 220–240V supply with on/off switching only; dimming is not supported. The aluminium body is supplied in white.
