Pack of 10 Recessed GU5.3 MR16 Fitting Frost White Ceiling Downlight Fitting

Product Information

You might be worried if your recess depth is quite shallow on your ceiling – fear not however, as our selection of short can LED downlights are a suitable remedy for such a problem. In particular our Fire Rated Short Can Downlight GU10 Fixed Satin Chrome is a fine example of this. If you're trying to change your bulbs, there are three features to consider before buying a new downlight fixture . Lumens: Standard Optics: 266, Medium Filter: 194, Medium Filter With Honeycomb: 98.3, Wide Filter: 182, Wide Filter With Honeycomb: 83.1 Field Angle: Standard Optics: 59.7°, Medium Filter: 81.7°, Medium Filter With Honeycomb: 63.9°, Wide Filter: 105.5°, Wide Filter With Honeycomb: 64.3° Regarding the brightness, the intensity of the light can have a strong impact on the ambience of your room(s). You should select the most appropriate brightness when aiming for a particular vibe. LED lights are usually rated in lumens, which differ a little from regular bulb lights rated in watts. The higher the lumen output, the brighter the space. However, it is quite easy to convert watts to lumen.

You also have the option of fixed and tilt downlights. Our tilt option is particularly popular with customers as it allows them to angle their bulbs and control the position of the light creating feature lighting effects. You may have also noticed the variety of finishes available to you – all our GU10 and MR16 Downlights come in white, satin chrome, chrome and brass options. Downlights generate a lot of heat during operation, making them hot after use. They are so hot that they can cause a first-degree burn. It is therefore advised to wait until the bulb is cool. You might need to disconnect and replace your transformer if there is a load mismatch. To disconnect, hold the wire in place and then unscrew the wires attaching the bulb fitting to the transformer. MR16 bulbs usually use 5-6watts of power, which is below the minimum load of a transformer so you would most likely have no problems.Our MR16 Downlights are available in 4 finishes: white, chrome, satin and brass. Satin is by far the most popular option with our customers. The best way to describe satin is as a non-reflective chrome. This finish complements most interiors.

Cutoff Angle: Standard Optics: 82.8°, Medium Filter: 148.9°, Medium Filter With Honeycomb: 84.7°, Wide Filter: 154.3°, Wide Filter With Honeycomb: 90° You could go for a downlight geared towards safety with fire rated protection included – like our Fire Rated Downlight GU10 Fixed Chrome– which helps prevent the spread of fire between floors.MR11 LEDs are smaller than MR16 meaning they are not as bright but allow them to be fitted into smaller downlights. An MR11 has a diameter of 35mm compared with the 50mm diameter of the MR16. The advantage of the MR11 is that they allow for smaller, less obtrusive holes to be cut into a ceiling. MR16 downlights are a type of light fitting that take an MR16 bulb and shine their light in a predominantly downward direction. The benefit of this type of light fitting is that they are designed to recess into your ceiling and sit flush with the ceiling. The result is a very subtle lighting system and increased ambience. Looking for a downlight that can tilt and be flexible? Our 7W Fitted LED Downlight 600 Lumens Standard Tilt gives you this freedom. If it is a definite number, assume it is your maximum rating and don't install a bulb with higher consumption. Brought to you by Mirrorstone Lighting, you can find a huge selection of GU10 downlights, fitted LED downlights and MR16 downlights amongst others.

You may also need to know what type of bulb is required whilst additionally evaluating the brightness of the lighting.

INSTALLATION OF LED LIGHTS

When purchasing any downlight it is important to consider their fire rating. Fire rated fittings are a legal requirement in new build homes and extensions. They are designed to stop the spread of fire as when you install downlights you are cutting holes into your ceiling and creating an opening which fire can pass through.
