Built to last, built to breatheThe LUNA gimbal starts with a durable airtight aluminum body paired with an adjustable gimbal, so the light source tilts where the design calls for it instead of staring straight down. Inside, an anodized blue heat sink maximizes airflow around the LED, which is exactly what keeps output and colour stable over the years in a small
3 inch recessed light. Two spring loaded clips hold the fixture in the ceiling and grip drywall, plaster, wood or T-bar-adjacent surfaces, so the same
gimbal downlight works in a renovation opening and in fresh new-construction drywall. Trim finishes in the family cover black, brushed nickel and white.
Light quality and dim-to-warmThis is a general application fixture with a 7 watt LED module that maintains uniform intensity and produces up to 745 lumens, with a typical CRI of 90 for rich, honest colour. The lens sets a 45° beam spread, a versatile angle that covers general ambient lighting and still has enough punch for accent work. The dim-to-warm behaviour is the star: as you dim, the
colour temperature shifts from 3000 K down to 1800 K, replicating the warm glow people love from incandescent and halogen sources, while drawing a fraction of the energy. LM79 and LM80 testing back the photometric and lumen maintenance claims, and projected life is 70% @ 33,000 hrs.
Electrical and installation detailsPower comes from an extruded aluminum hardwire box housing a 170mA dimmable Class II electronic
LED driver with 100-135V AC input. An 18" FT6 rated cable with a DC 2.1 connector links driver to fixture and is approved for use in plenums and suspended ceilings. Three "Quick connect" push-in terminals make wiring fast, which contractors appreciate when there are thirty openings to finish in a day. Cut a Ø 2 3/4" (70 mm) hole, connect, tuck the driver above the ceiling, squeeze the clips and you are done. Pair it with industry-standard
TRIAC/ELV dimmers; the manufacturer publishes a compatible dimmer list at liteline.com/lunadimmers.

Applications, accessories and documentationBecause it is rated for wet locations and approved for direct contact with insulation, this
recessed downlight handles covered entries, soffits, shower ceilings and insulated attic bays as easily as a living room. Think tilt-to-aim rows over a kitchen island, grazing light on a feature wall in a condo lobby, display lighting in a boutique, or soft evening levels in a restaurant where the dim-to-warm curve does the mood work for you. Accessories are sold separately and 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, and VBE-1, VBE-2 and VBE-5 vapour barrier extenders.
