Small aperture, big impact: the LITELINE 3" LUNA gimbal recessed fixture (SKU RA3-7G-40K-90BN) is the tidy little pot light that finally lets you aim your light exactly where you want it. Known by plenty of names — 3 inch LED recessed downlight, adjustable gimbal pot light, directional LED downlight, tilting recessed light — this compact fixture packs a full LED module, driver and trim into one all-in-one kit for retrofit and new work alike. The gimbal tilts so you can wash a stone fireplace, graze a feature wall, highlight artwork, or simply straighten the beam in a sloped ceiling. Whether you're laying out a whole main floor, adding accents over a kitchen island, or lighting a boutique display, this is the quiet workhorse that disappears into the ceiling and lets the room do the talking.

Rated at 7 W, it delivers up to 745 lumens at an efficient 96 lumens per watt, so you get real usable light from a tiny footprint. The module is a dim-to-warm design, shifting from 3000 K down to 1800 K as you lower the dimmer — that candle-glow effect people love in the evening. A typical CRI of 90 keeps skin tones, wood grain and paint colours looking true, while the lens sets a controlled 45° beam angle. Dimming is handled by a 170 mA dimmable Class II electronic driver with a 100-135V AC, 50/60 Hz input, compatible with industry-standard TRIAC/ELV dimmers, and power factor sits at 0.95. The durable airtight aluminum body carries an anodized blue heat sink for airflow, and the trim comes in a warm Brushed Nickel finish. It's cETLus certified, suitable for wet locations, approved for direct contact with insulation, operates from -40°C to +40°C, is projected at 70% output at 33,000 hours and is backed by a lifetime warranty.

From Halifax basements to Vancouver condos, this is a fixture that handles Canadian realities: insulated ceilings, cold garages and covered porches, damp bathrooms and showers. Drop it into kitchens, hallways, stairwells, bedrooms, retail shops, clinics, restaurants and offices. Installation is fast thanks to two spring-loaded clips, three quick-connect push-in terminals and an 18" FT6 rated cable with a DC 2.1 connector between the driver and the fixture.

Plan your layout and light your project right.

Built to last, built to breathe
The LUNA gimbal starts with a durable airtight aluminum body and an adjustable gimbal ring, so the whole fixture stays sealed against the ceiling while the optic pivots where you need it. An anodized blue heat sink sits behind the LED source to maximize airflow and keep junction temperatures in check — the single biggest factor in how long an LED pot light really lasts. That thermal work pays off in the numbers: a projected life of 70% output at 33,000 hours, an operating range of -40°C to +40°C, and a lifetime warranty. The Brushed Nickel trim adds a soft, modern edge that pairs beautifully with stainless appliances and matte hardware.

Light quality and the dim-to-warm effect
This 7 watt LED module produces up to 745 lumens with uniform intensity and a typical CRI of 90, which means food, fabric, wood and skin all read naturally instead of washed out. The lens delivers a 45° beam spread — wide enough for general ambient coverage, tight enough to make a gimbal recessed light work as an accent. The real charm is the colour temperature dimming: from 3000 K the light shifts down to 1800 K as you dim, mimicking the warm, cozy behaviour of incandescent and candlelight. Bright and crisp for cooking or cleaning, deep and golden for dinner and evenings.

Wiring and installation
Cut a Ø 2 3/4" (70mm) hole, feed the wires, and two spring-loaded clips hold the fixture to virtually any ceiling material. The extruded aluminum hardwire box houses a 170 mA dimmable Class II electronic driver and uses three quick-connect push-in terminals for fast wiring — no wire nuts to fight with overhead. An 18" (457mm) FT6 rated cable with a DC 2.1 connector links the driver to the fixture, and that assembly is approved for use in plenums and suspended ceilings. Because the housing is airtight and approved for direct contact with insulation, it's a clean choice for insulated ceilings and vapour-barrier-sensitive assemblies. For dimming, stick with industry-standard TRIAC/ELV controls and verify your model against the manufacturer's compatible dimmer list.

Accessories, applications and documentation
Listed accessories (sold separately) include the SLM-60-FC 60" flexible connector for SlimLED and 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, the VBE-1, VBE-2 and VBE-5 vapour barrier extenders, plus the LC-CRTL-3WAY-1 smart Wi-Fi 3-way switch and LC-CRTL-DIM-1 smart Wi-Fi dimmer, 120V.
