Why a baffle trim?
The CANOLIGHT CL-BF1-R3509-3CCT-BL is a 3.5-inch round baffle light. A baffle trim features a grooved inner surface that reduces glare and softens the view of the light source when you look up at the ceiling. The result is a more comfortable, upscale look, which is why baffle downlights are a favourite in living rooms, restaurants, boutiques and offices where people spend time under the lights.
Light output and colour quality
Drawing only 9 watts, this LED downlight delivers 770 lumens, enough to light a kitchen, hallway or bedroom with a few well-spaced fixtures. A CRI of 90 means colours are rendered faithfully, a real plus for kitchens, clothing stores, salons and art displays. The fixture's power factor of 0.9 reflects an efficient LED driver, and LED technology in general uses far less energy and produces less heat than older incandescent or halogen pot lights.
Three selectable colour temperatures
With 3CCT selectable colour temperature, you choose between 3K, 4K and 5K. Warm 3K creates a relaxing ambiance for bedrooms, living rooms and dining rooms; neutral 4K is a versatile choice for kitchens, bathrooms and offices; bright 5K suits garages, workshops, warehouses and retail spaces. Set the colour before closing the ceiling so that all fixtures in the room match perfectly.
Installation notes
The specifications list FT4 wire, useful information when planning the wiring and inspection. As with any recessed LED downlight, confirm the cut-out size, mounting method and ceiling conditions in the spec sheet before drilling. Plan your layout for even coverage, keep fixtures away from obstructions such as joists and ducts, and have the installation completed by a qualified electrician in accordance with your local electrical code.
