Gimble Downlight
Gimbal downlight has become a staple in modern lighting design, offering versatility, efficiency, and aesthetic appeal. These fixtures are designed to provide directional lighting, making them ideal for accentuating architectural features, creating dramatic wall-wash effects, and enhancing overall ambiance in various settings.
What Is Gimbal Downlight?
Gimbal downlight is a recessed light that features an adjustable gimbal mechanism. This mechanism allows the light source to rotate and tilt, providing flexibility in directing light beams to specific areas. They are commonly used in residential, commercial, and hospitality environments to create focused lighting effects.

- Energy Efficiency: These lights are typically LED-based, offering significant energy savings compared to traditional lighting solutions. For instance, an 8W gimbal LED can replace a 60W halogen bulb.
- Dimming Capabilities: Most gimbal downlights are dimmable, supporting various dimming ways like Triac and ELV, which enhance their versatility in different lighting scenarios.
- Certifications and Compliance: Many models are certified for use in wet locations and meet energy efficiency standards such as Energy Star or ERPEL.
