Location of installation You must know where you
are going to install the LED Downlight. If its
for wet areas like bathroom, look for a Downlight
that has an IP44 rating so that there is no water
ingress in the lighting fixture to cause an
electrical hazard. You must also look for
ceiling height, when choosing a Downlight with
particular lumen output. The ceilings with
greater heights will require a Downlight with
very high lumen output. You must also make sure
that you dont fix the Downlight too close to the
ceiling else there are chances of emergence of
shadows and dark spots. Keep at best a gap of 3
ft. between the ceiling and the lamp. The size
of the hole in ceiling You must measure the
hole size where a can light or pot light was
placed in order to buy the exact size in LED
Downlight. If you are a first-time buyer, then
you may opt for any size depending on how big
your room is. LED Downlight comes in lamp sizes
of 4 inch, 5/6 inch, 8 inch or 10 inch. And, when
it comes to shape, an LED Downlight may come in
exciting shapes such as baffle, square, eyeball
and disk with each shape serving different
purpose to meet users unique requirement.

For e.g. a down lighter with a baffle-trim design
is quite popular because of its anti-glare
quality and may provide the user with an intense,
bright light and yet without any glare. The
eyeball-shaped Downlight is created with a
purpose to allow for adjustment in beam angles so
that you can lay the focus of light on objects
and surfaces where its desired the most. The
disk-shaped Downlight can be used in spaces where
theres not enough space and yet the space may
look non-congested and appealing. A number of
hotels and motels use this kind of
Downlight. The dimming of LED Downlight An LED
Downlight may also come as dimmable or
non-dimmable other than based on shape and size.
A dimmable LED Downlight would always be a
better option since it allows you to save energy
by dimming of the light from 0-10V. Energy-savi
ngs from LED Downlight You must check the
wattage of your current light in order to replace
with an LED Downlight of equivalent wattage. By
all means, an LED Downlight will bring
energy-savings of 88 when used in place of
halogen or incandescent.

The choice of color temperature If an
incandescent or halogen light could provide you
with soft white light, an LED Downlight is a
bumper when it comes to different color
temperatures.  You have a wide variety of choices
such as 3000K, 4000k and 5000K, giving you
options of warm white color glow, neutral-white
light and neutral-day white light color glow
respectively. Choosing the right color
temperature is very important as it may enable
task, ambient or display lighting.  
Conclusion Other than the ones mentioned here,
some lesser important things to consider would be
the color rendering ability and
certifications/ratings indicating safety of
product use. If you just pay attention to these
basic things, little wonder, you will be having
the most ideal kind of LED Downlight at your
commercial or residential premise.
