Spike - Surface-Mounted White LED Spotlight 10 cm

The Spike has a simple cylindrical aluminium body in a white powder-coated finish. At approximately 10 cm in diameter and 8.6 cm high, it sits close to the ceiling without requiring a recessed opening.

A satin opal polycarbonate diffuser covers the integrated light source. This creates a neat, enclosed underside and reduces direct visibility of the LED components. The plain white exterior suits minimalist and contemporary interiors, while the compact proportions make it easy to use as a single fitting or as part of a repeated lighting arrangement.

The integrated 10W LED produces warm white light with a colour temperature of 3000K. Its downward-facing output is suited to illuminating circulation areas, work surfaces and selected zones rather than providing wide decorative illumination across a large room.

The satin opal diffuser helps distribute the light more evenly below the fitting and reduces harsh glare from the LED source. A colour rendering index above 90 means colours and surface finishes are displayed more naturally than with lower-CRI lighting.

The LED and driver are included, so no separate bulb is required. This model is designed for standard on/off operation and is not dimmable. Its IP20 rating limits installation to dry indoor locations away from water and excessive moisture.

Does this ceiling light require a bulb?

No. The Spike 345468 contains an integrated 10W LED light source, and the required driver is included. A separate replaceable bulb is not needed.

Is the Ideal Lux Spike 345468 dimmable?

No. This version is designed for standard on/off operation and is not compatible with a dimmer switch.

Can it be used in a bathroom?

The fitting has an IP20 rating and is intended for dry indoor areas. It should not be installed in bathroom zones or other locations where protection against moisture or splashing water is required.

Does it need to be recessed into the ceiling?

No. This is a surface-mounted ceiling light, so its cylindrical body is fitted beneath the ceiling. It can be useful where the ceiling does not have enough depth for a recessed downlight.

What colour light does it produce?

The integrated LED produces 3000K warm white light. This is warmer than neutral or daylight white and is suitable for comfortable everyday lighting in homes and customer-facing commercial interiors.
