About

Specifications & Features

Ideal for indoor stairwells and passage areas, this rechargeable LED downlight keeps a practical pool of light exactly where you need it when the power goes out. It fits a GU10 fitting and is great for both general lighting and more directional, focused illumination, so you can still move safely up and down stairs during loadshedding.

This light works best in staircases and hallways where clear, focused light prevents trips and keeps routes visible during a blackout. It switches to backup automatically and runs long enough to guide people safely across floors and along corridors without needing a torch.

Installation Guidance, Tips & Tricks

Choose Indoor Install Locations: Use in indoor stairwells or passages to maintain light during outages. Avoid outdoor or damp areas due to the IP20 rating.

Select Suitable Colour Temperature: Choose 3000K, 4000K, or 6500K to match your preference for warm, cool, or daylight appearance in the area.

 

Optimize Beam For Safety: Position fixtures to provide general light or focused illumination, directing light onto stairs or walkways for safe movement during loadshedding.

 

Plan And Test Emergency Runtime: Expect emergency lighting at 50 lumens for 3 hours. Verify operation during a convenient outage to confirm the rechargeable function.
