The Amelia is a 280mm oyster drawing 18W for1,450lm, with three switchable colour temperatures andCRI above 85.

This fitting is IP20 indoor and dry locations only. Anearlier version of this page said IP44. It is not: there is no water protection, so it should not go ina shower zone or under an eave.

Three colour temperatures, not one

The -3C in the order code means 3CCT: 3000K warm,4000K natural or 5000K cool, selected on the fitting at installation. Our product recordlisted only 5000K, which was wrong you get all three and you choose.

CRI above 85 is the number to notice

Most oysters sit at CRI 80. >85 is a visible step up: skin tones, timber andfabric look closer to how they look in daylight. On a 280mm ceiling fitting that is anunusually good specification.

Surge protection is built in

1.5kVA surge protection is included worth having in areas prone tostorms or brownouts, and not something most oysters at this size offer.

It needs an earth

ClassI hard-wired, earth required, installed by a licensedelectrician. It is not a plug-in fitting.

Where it works

• Hallways, entries and walk-in robes.
• Bedrooms, at the 3000K setting.
• Laundries and pantries dry areas only.
• Small rooms where 1,450lm is enough on its own.

Questions

Can it go in a bathroom or under an eave?

No. It is IP20 with no water protection. An earlier version of this page said IP44, which was wrong. Ask us for an IP44 or IP54 oyster instead.

Is it really only 5000K?

No. The -3C code means three switchable colour temperatures 3000K, 4000K and 5000K chosen at installation. Our record listed only one, which was an error.

How bright is it?

1,450lm from 18W, across 280mm enough on its own in a hallway, entry or small bedroom.

Is the colour rendering good?

CRI is above 85, a visible step up from the CRI 80 most oysters offer.

Can I install it myself?

No. It is ClassI, hard-wired and requires an earth a licensed electrician’s job.

Is it dimmable?

No.

What is the warranty?

Three years.
