LED ceiling lights in bathrooms

[driverman]

Hi guys, I'm getting to the 2nd fix stage at long last. I've taken advice from this forum and decided to fit fire rated LED's throughout the house. I've never installed LED's before and usually in the bathroom I would fit a batten holder or a ceiling rose with a HO skirt on! Going back a bit! Question is, are there any restrictions fitting LED's in bathrooms? They are all outside any zone areas. However my concern is the one above the actual shower area. I'm thinking about the environment to which it and possibly others are being subjected to. Any thoughts Gents? Thanks

IMHO mixing ip and non ip rated lights in a bathroom looks so naff

agree, I will be fitting all the same

Looked on line what customer has brought for the whole house...turns out the fittings are IP44 rated anyhow. Therefore I was worrying about nothing really. I suppose IP65 would of been better though.

Found out guys. Ovia inceptor led 4300sc7c (hopefully) Any one used these? good, bad ?

I've used them, they seemed like excellent kit to me, however they were pretty damn bright! Depends what the customer wants intensity wise.

Well , ! sort of planned it for 3w upstairs when 1st fixing, but just left switch wire in loft ready for 2nd fixing after plastering and holes cut. I decided due to 7w each LED I would put less in. Going to be different story downstairs as I can't get to them. They look OK, neat way to connect them. I did practice fit some 15mm plaster board, found to be very tight in 65mmm hole.

JCC with me too , good design . the LED6 fittings can be had for just over £20 each + VAT ,

JCC love here too.

As a slight aside, has anyone ever used KSR led downlights ? A local wholesaler is pushing them lately.... Apparently a company run by someone who was something to do with JCC. They are pushing them out extremely cheap.

Fitted some ksr led downlights last week.
i think they are on par with the halers one and quite a bit cheaper.
quite a shallow heat sink at the back if space is tight.

I just took a look at some 6w KSRs, £36. I think I'll stick with JCC

I have been quoted a lot less than that.......

About this price in fact and about £22 for the dimmable I think

Yes, a very good fitting.... good quality build and roomy terminals. I use them sometimes but mainly use JCC as a GU10 option.
