LED Ceiling Light | Katara

The modern ceiling light Katara fits into a white aluminium tube just 5.2 cm across: 12 W of LED, 900 lm in warm white and a directional head controlled by remote. This modern tube ceiling light with a honeycomb diffuser works as a compact led ceiling light.

What kind of light does this modern ceiling light give?

The wash of light falls softly, with no harsh halo, and slides towards the wall when you angle the head. That is the effect you expect from a modern led living room ceiling light: warm, even, never glaring.

• Warm white colour temperature 2700-3500K, controlled by remote.
• 900 lm output, enough for a living room or bedroom.
• CRI 90: furniture colours stay true.
• Integrated 12 W LED, no bulb to change.

Where should you install a directional ceiling light at home?

It suits the dry rooms it is intended for: living room, bedroom, hallway. In a kitchen, the head turns towards the worktop, and a led living room ceiling light only needs one well-aimed point.

• Living room: soft wash aimed at the bookcase or a wall.
• Bedroom: warm light for reading without dazzling the bed.
• Hallway: to be found among the hallway ceiling lights.
• IP20: dry rooms only, so not for the bathroom.

How do you fit and maintain it?

It mounts on the surface, screwed to the ceiling, on a 200-240 V 50/60 Hz mains supply. The tube barely protrudes once fixed, which makes it easy to pair with white light fittings.

• Surface mounting, no recess or cut-out needed.
• Remote control supplied for switching on and angling.
• Aluminium and honeycomb lens cleaned with a dry cloth, no abrasives.
• CE certified and 5-year warranty.

Why choose a minimalist ceiling light rather than a multi-point model?

A modern living room ceiling light does not need to be spectacular to light a room well. On a low ceiling, a single directional point is enough and blends into the background.

• Small living room or adult bedroom: one point is plenty.
• Low ceiling: the 5.2 cm tube stays discreet.
• Understated look: browse the minimalist light fittings.
• Strong decorative impact: look at multi-arm models.

Ring models, such as the Gold ceiling light with interwoven rings and led lighting, take up more space on the ceiling. Compare with the Industrial ceiling light with curved luminous arms in a round shape, which is more prominent.

To frame the project, getting the lighting right in a minimalist interior helps you decide. The Oval woven wicker ceiling light with a wavy edge plays a warmer card.
