Built to last, built to aimThe LUNA 3" square gimbal is made around a durable airtight aluminum body with an adjustable gimbal, so the light head tilts 30° to direct the beam where the design calls for it. An anodized blue heat sink sits behind the LED source to maximize airflow and protect light output over time — the kind of detail that separates an
adjustable recessed downlight you install once from one you replace. The square trim gives a sharp, architectural line in the ceiling, and the black finish (the 90BK code in this SKU) recesses visually into the aperture, which keeps the ceiling calm and the light the star of the show.
Light quality you can seeThe 7 watt LED module maintains uniform intensity and produces up to 745 lumens, which works out to 96 lumens per watt — real
energy efficiency compared with the halogen and incandescent pot lights it replaces, often using a fraction of the power for similar usable light. A typical CRI of 90 renders colours honestly, so your quartz counter, oak floor or clothing rack looks the way it should. The lens delivers a controlled 45° beam spread, tight enough for accenting and wide enough for general room lighting when the fixtures are spaced in a grid.

Electrical and installationPower comes from an extruded aluminum hardwire box housing a 170mA dimmable Class II electronic LED driver with 100-135V AC input. An 18" (457 mm) FT6 rated cable with a DC 2.1 connector links the driver to the fixture and is approved for use in plenums and suspended ceilings, so the box can sit off to the side in the joist bay. Three quick-connect push-in terminals make wiring fast — a real time-saver when you are installing a dozen
square pot lights in one afternoon. Two spring-loaded clips hold the fixture to nearly any ceiling material through a Ø 2 3/4" (70 mm) hole, and the unit is approved for direct contact with insulation, so no need to build a box above it in an insulated attic ceiling. Dimming uses standard TRIAC/ELV wall dimmers; accessories such as vapour barrier extenders, a new construction mounting kit and a pre-mounting plate are available separately for new builds, remodels and
recessed lighting vapor barrier situations in Canadian climates.
Where it works and what to readThink ensuite bathrooms and shower ceilings (wet location approved), covered entries and soffits, kitchen perimeters, basement renos with limited plenum depth, retail and boutique display ceilings, restaurant seating areas and office corridors. If your project calls for a different colour temperature or a different trim finish, the same body is offered as the
3" Luna LED square gimbal recessed fixture RA3S-7G-30K-90BK, the brushed nickel
3" Luna LED square gimbal recessed fixture RA3S-7G-27K-90BN, or the warm-dimming
