I've been looking at those, trying to find a job where they can go in! Seemed to get many thumbs up last time someone asked about downlighters, and I'd already narrowed down my hunt to the IP65 ones for one job, but customers don;t like paying for stuff so they didn't.

Are those 230V or transformed.

Also what do you reckon is best 230V or transformed down lights?

i had some real crap ones from screwfix that did not pull up to the ceilling well, small terminals and the glass covers were pull out secured by ball bearings. stumbled across the click ones and try to supply and fit them from now on, they are aqustic and moister as well i think.

the ip 65 have a screw up glass cover and they look nice.

big terminals and seam to spring up well.

prob some better out there but fire rated for

I've used some of the Aurora stuff before, some of it's good, some of it's not. Not sure where it's all made but it seems to be variable. Used to use JCC but tbh they aren;t what they were IMO and they're not overly cheap either, there's better ones out there for the money, like the Click range.

I've used the click ones. Generally very good, sometimes not the tightest fit in the ceiling. I tend to cut a slightl smaller hole than the instructions recommend (only by a mm or 2) but it seems to help greatly.

I'm sticking with the JCC at the moment,
