| Size | 4 to 15 inch depending on version |
|---|---|
| Power | 9W to 30W |
| Control | WiFi or 2.4G wireless |
| Colour temperature | Selectable, with 2000K on some versions |
| Mounting | Recessed |
- Pick WiFi or 2.4G by the situation - WiFi for scheduling and remote access, 2.4G where there is no reliable network or the user will not install an app. A 2.4G remote keeps working when the router does not.
- Match the size to the room - 4 inch for hallways and small bathrooms, 6 inch for bedrooms and kitchens, 9 inch for living rooms, 12 to 15 inch for large and double height spaces.
- Consider the 2000K versions for night use - warmer than candlelight, useful in a bedroom or hallway where a standard 2700K still reads as bright.
- Group the fixtures before the ceiling closes - pairing is easier from a ladder, and a fixture that will not pair is simpler to swap at first fix.
- Set a sensible default - smart fixtures return to a default after a power cut. Mid brightness and warm white beats the whole room coming on at full output.
- Confirm the void depth and insulation clearance, then hardwire by a licensed electrician.
Control without rewiring
A smart downlight puts the control inside the fixture rather than in the wall. Colour temperature, brightness and grouping are set from a phone or a remote, which means a room can be re-zoned without pulling a single cable.
The range runs 4 inch to 15 inch, with WiFi and 2.4G wireless versions plus a set of narrow beam and ultra-warm options.
WiFi or 2.4G wireless
| WiFi | 2.4G remote | |
|---|---|---|
| Control from | Phone, anywhere | Handheld remote, in range |
| Needs a network | Yes | No |
| Works in a power cut | No, router dependent | Yes, once power returns |
| Suits | Homes, holiday lets, scheduling | Workshops, garages, rentals |
WiFi is the better choice where scheduling and remote access matter. Where there is no reliable network, or where the person using the room will not install an app, a 2.4G remote is simpler and does not stop working when the router does.
Size by room
| Size | Output | Suits |
|---|---|---|
| 4 inch | 9W | Hallways, small bathrooms, accent |
| 6 inch | 12W | Bedrooms, kitchens, general rooms |
| 9 inch | 18W | Living rooms, open plan |
| 12 inch | 24W | Large rooms, high ceilings |
| 15 inch | 30W | Double height, commercial |
2000K is worth knowing about
Two versions go down to 2000K, which is warmer than candlelight. On an evening setting that produces a very low, amber light — useful in a bedroom or a hallway at night, where a standard 2700K still reads as bright. Most smart downlights stop at 2700K.
Group before you fit
Decide which fixtures belong to which zone before the ceiling closes. Pairing is easier from a ladder than from a finished room, and a fixture that will not pair is far simpler to swap at first fix.
Set a default
Smart fixtures return to their last state or a set default after a power cut. Pick a sensible default — mid brightness, warm white — or the whole room comes on at full output the next time the power blips.
Installation
Hardwired and recessed, fitted by a licensed electrician. Confirm the ceiling void depth and insulation clearance before cutting.
