The Picard SP5 is a 1,150mm five-light spotlight bar GU10 lampsincluded, CRI above 90, switchable across three colour temperatures in black or white.

CRI above 90, which is the reason to buy it

Most spotlights sit around CRI80. The Picard is >90, and on a fitting whosejob is pointing at things that is not a footnote it is the difference between artwork,timber and fabric looking like themselves and looking flat. If you are lighting a painting, a joineryrun or a gallery wall, this is the specification that matters and almost nothing else in this rangematches it.

The lamps come with it

Unusual for GU10. Five lamps at 7W each, 35W total, included already matched to one another, which on a five-head bar saves the exact problem that ruins thesefittings: five slightly different whites in a row.

Three colour temperatures, selectable

3000K, 4000K or 5000K. Warm for a living room, neutral for akitchen, cool for a workshop or a display decided at installation rather than at purchase.

1,150mm long and 55mm wide

A long, narrow bar rather than a cluster. That spreads five adjustable headsacross a wall or a joinery run instead of concentrating them in one spot andat 55mm wide with 155mm of projection it stays discreet on the ceiling.

One to five heads

Picard is made in 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5-light versions. Ask us if a shorter bar suits therun better.

It does not dim

Said plainly: not dimmable. Choose the colour temperature to do the work instead.
