The Chloe GU10 SLIP004005 is a white surface-mounted light in the shape of an aluminium box, fixed directly to the ceiling. Its underside holds a round ring with a GU10 lampholder, which the manufacturer describes as movable – so the light can be aimed at an angle rather than only straight down. The same fitting is available in black as SLIP004006.
Dimensions and mounting
The housing measures 97 × 97 mm at the base and is 125 mm high, so it projects 12.5 cm below the ceiling – a figure to compare with the room height and with whatever will sit beneath the light. It weighs 0.54 kg and is intended for indoor use.
Surface mounting means the light is screwed to the ceiling surface without cutting a hole, so it also suits rooms without a suspended ceiling. The luminaire is protection class I, so it needs a protective earth conductor when connected to the mains.
Which lamp
No light source is included. The fitting takes a lamp with a GU10 base, and the manufacturer permits only an LED source of up to 10 W, stating that the fitting is not intended for halogen lamps. The colour, brightness and beam angle therefore depend on the GU10 LED lamp you choose.
If you want to dim the light, you need a GU10 LED lamp labelled as dimmable and a dimmer that works with LED sources – the fitting itself has no built-in driver or control.
