Designed for Modern Living- GY IP44 Recessed LED Downlight 3.5W 552lm – Energy Class B

The GY IP44 Recessed LED Downlight 3.5W delivers high efficiency, flicker-free illumination, and reliable performance without the usual compromise between brightness and energy savings.

With European Class B efficiency, TÜV Rheinland certification, IP44 protection, and three selectable colour temperatures, it is a versatile lighting solution for modern interiors.

94% Energy Saving with Genuine 552-Lumen Brightness

This Class B LED Downlight produces 552 lumens at just 3.5 watts, replacing traditional halogen fixtures that consume 50–60W for the same brightness. With a luminous efficacy of 157.7 lm/W, it achieves what standard Class E or F downlights simply cannot full directional brightness at a fraction of the running cost.

TÜV Rheinland Certified – Independently Verified Safety

Unlike many budget alternatives that rely on self-declared compliance, the GY Downlight is independently tested and certified by TÜV Rheinland for safety, thermal performance, and energy efficiency.

This certification provides added confidence in its reliability, quality, and compliance with European standards.

Flicker-Free & Instant-On — Zero Warm-Up Time

The GY Downlight delivers continuous, stable light output with a CRI 80+ rating, eliminating the invisible high-frequency flicker that causes headaches and eye fatigue during long periods of use. The moment you flip the switch, it reaches 100% full brightness instantly — no warm-up, no gradual fade-in.

Three Switchable Color Temperatures for Every Room

A built-in side switch lets you select your preferred color temperature before installation, and your chosen setting stays locked every time you use the light:

•      3000K Warm White – Relaxing, cozy atmosphere for living rooms, bedrooms and dining areas

•      4000K Neutral White – Clean, natural light for kitchens, offices and study rooms

•      6500K Cool White – Crisp daylight brightness for bathrooms, garages and commercial spaces

IP44 Waterproof – Safe for Bathrooms, Kitchens & Steam Environments

Rated IP44, this downlight is fully sealed against solid objects larger than 1mm and protected against water splashes from any direction. It is safe and reliable above showers, in humid bathroom ceilings, busy kitchens and any zone where moisture and steam are present.

Designed for Both Residential & Commercial Spaces

Residential:

Perfect for living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms and hallways — anywhere that benefits from adjustable, focused lighting at minimal energy cost.

Commercial:

Highly reliable for retail shops, boutiques, galleries, hotels, lounges and lobbies where continuous daily operation and accurate color rendering directly impact customer experience.

FAQ

How do I change the color temperature (CCT)?

Use the built-in side switch to select 3000K, 4000K, or 6500K before installing the downlight into the ceiling.

Is IP44 safe enough for a bathroom or steam environment?

Yes. The IP44-rated design protects against water splashes and moisture, making it suitable for bathrooms, kitchens, and other humid indoor environments.
