Built to last, built to aimThe LUNA 3" gimbal starts with a durable airtight aluminum body and an adjustable gimbal that tilts up to 30°, so you can wash a stone fireplace, graze a brick wall or drop light on a countertop without buying a separate accent fixture. An anodized blue heat sink sits behind the LED to maximize airflow and protect the light source, which is how this
3 inch recessed downlight holds its projected life of 70% @ 33,000 hrs. Two spring-loaded clips let the fixture attach to virtually any ceiling material, making it a clean
retrofit downlight for drywall, plaster or panelled ceilings.
Light quality and dim-to-warmThe 7 watt LED module produces up to 745 lumens of uniform intensity with a typical CRI of 90 — high enough that finishes, fabrics and food look the way the designer intended. The lens shapes a 45° beam spread, wide enough for general
recessed lighting layouts yet controlled enough for accenting. What sets this SKU apart is colour temperature dimming: as you lower the dimmer, the light travels from 3000 K down to 1800 K, mimicking the cozy shift of an incandescent lamp. It works with industry standard TRIAC/ELV dimmers; Liteline publishes a compatible dimmer list at liteline.com/lunadimmers.

Electrical and installationPower comes from an extruded aluminum hardwire box housing a 170mA dimmable Class II electronic LED driver with 100-135V AC input. Three "Quick connect" push-in terminals make wiring fast, and an 18" (457 mm) FT6 rated cable with a DC 2.1 connector links driver to fixture — approved for use in plenums and suspended ceilings. Cut a Ø 2 3/4" (70 mm) hole, make your connections, tuck the box above the ceiling, squeeze the clips and set the gimbal. Because the fixture is
IC rated for direct contact with insulation and suitable for wet locations, it suits insulated attics, soffits, covered porches and shower ceilings alike. Accessories are sold separately: a 60" flexible connector (SLM-60-FC) for LUNA fixtures, the P-2810 2 3/4" round pre-mounting plate with driver attachment clip for 3" LUNA LED fixtures, the P-NCMK-1 new construction mounting kit with hanger bars, brackets and screws, and vapour barrier extenders VBE-1, VBE-2 and VBE-5 — a real answer to the
recessed lighting vapour barrier question in Canadian builds.
Applications, matching fixtures and documentationThink kitchen perimeters and islands, hallway runs, walk-in closets, stair soffits, bathroom and shower ceilings, home theatres, hotel corridors, boutiques, cafés and clinic waiting rooms — anywhere a small, aimable, dimmable downlight beats a big fixed one. To keep one look across a job, match this white trim with the
black Luna gimbal or the
brushed nickel Luna gimbal, and see the
white dim-to-warm Luna gimbal in the same family. Full photometrics, dimensions and the ordering guide are in the technical spec sheet available in the Documentation tab of this page.
