About

Specifications & Features

Ideal for indoor stairwells and other high-traffic areas, this rechargeable downlight helps keep your home safely lit when the power goes off. It fits into a standard GU10 downlight and gives you practical, directional light for everyday use, with backup illumination that kicks in during load shedding.

Great for staircases and hallways where clear sightlines matter. It offers steady, focused illumination so people can see steps and move safely after the mains fail, reducing the risk of trips. The internal battery keeps the light running for several hours, long enough to carry on with evening tasks or reach a safe area during short blackouts. A small change that makes daily movement safer.
