V-TAC LED Downlight 12W LED COB CRI90+ CCT Black VT-2512 3000K-4000K-6400K 785lm

The V-TAC VT-2512 is a round LED COB recessed downlight in a black die-cast aluminium housing. In the photos, the inner ring holding the LED module sits slightly angled against the outer ring, giving the fixture its characteristic two-level shape. The COB light source is permanently built into the fixture.

How large the fixture is and what cutout it needs

The outer diameter is 120 mm at a build-in height of 43 mm, and the manufacturer specifies a mounting cutout of 105 mm — a dimension worth comparing against a hole already cut into the ceiling. The fixture weighs 0.39 kg.

How much light it gives and in what colour

The integrated 12 W COB module delivers a luminous flux of 785 lm, corresponding to an efficacy of about 65 lm/W. The colour temperature can be switched between 3000 K (warm white), 4000 K (neutral white) and 6400 K (cool white), letting the choice depend on the room the fixture is installed in. A colour rendering index above Ra 90 means colours look close to natural daylight under this light, which matters over a kitchen counter or in a walk-in wardrobe. A 25° beam angle concentrates the light into a narrow cone, giving a focused spot rather than a diffuse glow. Because the light source is integrated, it cannot be replaced once its lifespan ends.

Lifespan, power supply and warranty

The manufacturer states a lifespan of 18 years at 3 hours of use per day and resistance to more than 15,000 on/off cycles. The fixture runs on a 100–240 V AC input, carries a 2-year warranty and CE, EMC and RoHS certification.
