What are recessed LED spotlights?

Recessed LED spotlights are fixtures offering the benefits of well-distributed light. They are generally installed in ceilings and are built to replace classic incandescent or halogen luminaires. Unlike LED downlights, which are used for general ceiling lighting and have a wider beam angle, LED spotlights have a narrow light beam which provides a sharp contrast between light and shadow. They are ideal for accent lighting on paintings or artwork.

Where to install them?

A recessed LED spotlight can be installed in a ceiling in any room and used for general lighting, although they're mostly used for accent lighting. The luminosity to diffuse will depend on the room itself but can be adjusted if you choose dimmable LED spotlights. You can also install them in entrances and hallways or even in your bathroom if you wish (make sure you get a luminaire with the right IP). They can also be placed underneath furnishings or in dressing rooms.

In short, they can be installed almost anywhere!
