FAQs
Do I need a transformer for these downlights?
No, these ValueLights downlights are designed to be wired directly to mains voltage and do not require a separate transformer.
What type of bulbs can I use with this fitting?
You can use standard GU10 halogen or LED bulbs. The fitting is supplied with warm white bulbs, but you can replace them with bulbs of your preferred type and colour temperature.
Can I adjust the angle of the light?
No, these are fixed downlights, meaning the light is directed straight down and cannot be angled.
What is the finish of these downlights?
These specific downlights have a copper finish.
How do I install these lights?
Installation involves cutting a hole in the ceiling, wiring the fitting directly to the mains power using the supplied terminal block, inserting a GU10 bulb, and securing the fitting with the spring clips. Always ensure the power is turned off before installation.
Are dimmable bulbs compatible?
Yes, if you use a dimmable GU10 bulb, these fittings are compatible, provided your lighting circuit has a compatible dimmer switch installed.
What is included in the pack?
The pack includes 6 downlight fittings, GU10 lampholders, terminal blocks, and warm white GU10 bulbs.
Troubleshooting
Light does not turn on
Check that the mains power is switched on at the breaker. Verify all wire connections at the terminal block and lampholder are secure. Ensure the bulb is correctly seated and functional. Test with a known working bulb.
Flickering light
Loose bulb connection: Ensure the bulb is firmly pressed into the lampholder. Loose wiring: Check all connections at the terminal block and lampholder. Faulty bulb: Try a different bulb. If using a dimmable bulb with a non-compatible dimmer, replace with a standard or compatible dimmable bulb.
