Techo - IP54 Surface-Mounted Coffee Ceiling Light ∅ 15 cm

The Techo has a simple cylindrical form with a 15 cm diameter, creating a clean architectural look when mounted directly to the ceiling. Its body is made from die-cast aluminium with a powder-coated coffee brown finish. This warmer alternative to black or anthracite can coordinate particularly well with timber details, brown window frames and natural exterior materials.

A tempered transparent matt glass diffuser sits across the lower face of the fitting. The glass protects the lamp while keeping the overall design compact and uncluttered.

This outdoor ceiling light uses one replaceable GU10 bulb, which is not included. LED GU10 bulbs can be used, so the colour temperature and light output can be selected to suit the application. The downward-facing position makes the fitting useful for illuminating entrances, covered terraces, porches and exterior circulation areas from above.

As a mains-wired fitting with a replaceable GU10 lamp holder, it is compatible with dimmable GU10 bulbs when paired with a suitable dimmer switch. The bulbs and dimmer switch need to be matched to each other for dimming to work properly.

The IP54 rating provides protection against limited dust ingress and splashing water, making the fitting suitable for appropriate outdoor ceiling installations.
