Rendl KEIG R13632 black outdoor ceiling light GU10 max. 8 W IP65

Rendl KEIG R13632 is a black outdoor ceiling light with a square footprint and a recessed position for its bulb. The straight-sided body ends in a lower frame with visible screws. It takes a replaceable GU10 LED bulb rather than using an integrated module with a fixed colour temperature.

Choose the bulb for the lighting task

The installation instructions specify a maximum of 8 W for the GU10 LED bulb in model R13632. This is the permitted source wattage, not a measure of the fitting's brightness. Compare the bulb's lumen output, colour temperature and beam angle with the surface you want to illuminate. A GU10 base alone does not determine any of those characteristics.

Select the bulb separately. The manufacturer allows dimming with a suitable light source, but this does not make every GU10 bulb dimmable. If brightness control is part of the installation, check that the chosen bulb is compatible with the control equipment as well.

Allow for the body below the ceiling

The footprint measures 8.6 × 8.6 cm and the body is 10.3 cm high. Compare these dimensions with the available space beneath the roof or canopy, particularly near opening doors. This is a surface-mounted fitting: the body remains visible below the ceiling rather than disappearing into a recessed mounting hole.

Outdoor placement and installation

KEIG is intended for outdoor use and has an IP65 rating. It can be considered beneath a terrace, balcony or gazebo ceiling, or above an entrance where there is a suitable mounting surface. Its plain black, angular form suits modern, modernist and minimalist architecture. For a row of fittings, plan spacing around the mounting height and the distribution of the selected bulbs.

The supply voltage is 230 V. The manufacturer requires installation by a qualified person and isolation of the circuit before work begins. Handle the cover carefully: the instructions specifically warn that it can be damaged.
