Three adjustable heads on a 306mm plate. The three-light Sbarra is the version most rooms end up wanting: enough heads to wash a run of wall or cover a working surface, short enough that it does not dominate a ceiling. It surface mounts to a ceiling or a wall and runs on 240V mains with nothing between it and the switch.

Three heads, and why we publish the total

Every head has its own built-in LED, so this is three 8W heads rather than one shared source. The fitting therefore draws 24W in total and makes 1,920lm at 3000K, 2,160lm at 4000K and 2,040lm at 5500K 3 640, 3 720 and 3 680lm. Those are the numbers that describe the fitting you receive. A single heads figure describes a third of it, which is useful for planning where the light lands and useless for comparing one fitting against another.

Note where the maximum sits: output peaks at 4000K, in the middle of the TRI Colour switch, not at the cool end.

Beam angle and adjustment range are not the same thing

The beam is 36 a tight accent beam from each head. The adjustment is 90 of tilt and 300 of swivel per head, describing how far each head can be turned in its socket rather than how wide the light spreads. Three heads through 300 of swivel will reach a surprising amount of a room from one point.

Where it works

Along a hallway of pictures, over a kitchen bench, across shelving, or angled at a feature wall in a living room. It is IP20 indoor and dry only. Bathrooms, alfresco ceilings and anywhere that catches weather need a rated fitting instead. The plate and heads are powder-coated aluminium with glass lenses, offered in black or white.

Specifying and installing it

It is Class 1, so an earth is required, and a licensed electrician installs it under AS/NZS3000. It is Triac dimmable, with the HV9625 300W LED Dial Dimmer named on Havits data sheet as the compatible accessory. The plate is 306 71mm. The remaining dimensions appear only as an outline drawing, so check that against the space particularly the drop below the ceiling, which is what a head has to clear when it tilts. Havit publishes a data sheet and no separate installation booklet for the Sbarra, so no extra install conditions attach to it.

Because all four Sbarra sizes share one head, a three-light bar over a bench and a single spot over a sideboard in the same room will match exactly. That is the sort of detail the team at Lights For You is happy to work through with you before you order.

Frequently asked questions

Does it need a driver or a transformer?

No. It wires directly to 240V AC mains, so there is nothing extra to buy or find room for. It is a Class1 fitting, which means the circuit must be earthed that is an electricians job under AS/NZS3000, not a plug-in installation.

Is there a globe to replace when it fails?

No. The LED is built into each head, so there is no lamp base, no globe to source and nothing to change. The trade-off is the usual one for an integrated fitting: at end of life the head is replaced rather than relamped. Havit rates the LED at more than 30,000 hours.

Can it go in a bathroom, under an eave or outside?

No. It is rated IP20 indoor, dry locations only. That excludes bathroom zones, covered outdoor areas and anywhere spray or condensation can reach. A weather-rated fitting is the right answer for those positions.

Will it dim, and with what?

It is Triac dimmable, so a conventional leading-edge wall dimmer controls it. The accessory Havit names on the data sheet is the HV9625 300W LED Dial Dimmer, and we stock it. Our own advice, not the suppliers: settle the dimmer at quoting stage. LED loads are small, and a dimmer sized for incandescent lamps can behave oddly at the bottom of its range.

Which colour temperature gives the most light?

4000K. Output peaks in the middle of the TRI Colour switch and eases at both ends, so it does not simply rise as the colour gets cooler 3000K is the lowest reading, 4000K the highest, 5500K in between. The spread is only about 12% end to end, which the eye does not really read, so choose the colour that suits the room rather than chasing the number.

Is a three-light bar enough for a kitchen bench?

For a standard 2.43m bench, generally yes as accent and task light 2,160lm at 4000K, split across three aimable 36 heads, puts usable light where you point it. It is not a substitute for general room lighting, because a 36 beam is deliberately narrow. Think of it as three controllable pools rather than an even wash.
