    Can i replace a Downlight with one different to the rest?

    Hi, I've got 6 Luceco downlights in my cellar. One is now flashing on & off. I've taken it out & can see that it's a contained unit, I can't replace the bulb. Is it possible to buy a different Downlight to replace or do I have to buy the same model? Thank you.

    LED Recessed Downlight with dim "ring" around the edge

    i walked a model home yesterday and it had been fitted with can lights that had a typical downlight, but the standard downlight trim would also emit a soft glow around the edge as an option as well. Basically the light switch toggled between those options: Downlight on, dim edge glowing only...

    Can I DIY replace downlight transformer?

    Yes I know what the answer is and you're going to shoot me down in flames... but I'm tired of calling in a sparky every time one of my downlight transformers die. I've seen how they work and how he screws the wires back in .... how unsafe is it for me to replace one of these myself and match...

    UK LED downlight flickering and going on and off intermittently

    Hi all, Have 6 x GU 5.3 LED downlights in the bathroom. Had no issues for 3 years and lights have started flickering and some go off for periods and come back on randomly. Changed the bulbs for new ones but exactly the same. There is no dimmer switch. Just a standard single way switch. HELP!!!

    Are these cables too close to an LED downlight?

    I'm fairly certain the answer is yes. But I've drilled a hole for an LED downlight and unfortunately it's busy with cables. Moving it will be a hassle due to the spacing of the other lights, just before I do - are the LED lights somehow such low temp that I could in fact just keep it here...

    Downlight Regulations

    I am trying to get a definitive answer to a question regarding the regulations on the installation of downlights. Could you please tell me under what circumstances it is a legal requirement for fire safe downlights to be fitted rather than ordinary downlights. I have a top floor flat with...

    Rose Circuit to Downlight

    Hi, I’m new here, hopefully a simple question for the professionals. I am installing down lights in an upstairs bedroom. The plasterer has gracefully removed the lamp and pushed the cables up into the loft. In the loft I now have a cable coming from the bedroom light switch and a second cable...

    Downlight min distance to joists

    Yes that one again - been answered a millions times BUT often the answer is do what the MI say. I have the Enlite DLM982x and it doesn't specify any distances. Obvisouly I'm fitting LEDs but these cans would in theory allow a halogen. SO, belts and braces seems to suggest 50mm but could I fit...

    Not sure what downlight type this is?
