01 / The feeling
Light That Shows True Colour
A step beyond ordinary downlighting, this precision LED module delivers truly beautiful illumination with its CRI90+ colour rendering—revealing fabrics, artwork and finishes exactly as they should appear. Whether you're setting a warm, inviting glow in living spaces with 3000K or creating crisp, focused light in kitchens with 4000K, the dimmable output lets you fine-tune the atmosphere throughout the day. Choose from 15, 24 or 36 degree beam angles to shape the light exactly where you need it.
Designed specifically for the Kanto trimless downlight system, this matched module-and-driver pair clicks together via a simple DC connector—no fiddly wiring required. At 1000 lumens from just 8W, it's a meaningful upgrade on standard GU10 lamps, delivering exceptional efficiency at 120 lumens per watt. Compatible with leading edge dimmers, rated IP20 for indoor use, and backed by a 5-year warranty for complete peace of mind.

Good to know
A few questions,
before it comes home.
What type of dimmer switch do I need for the Kanto LED module?
The Kanto requires a leading edge (TRIAC) dimmer switch to operate correctly when dimming. Standard rotary or trailing edge dimmers won't be compatible and may cause flickering or buzzing. Ensure your dimmer is rated for LED loads and has a minimum load lower than 8W, as some older dimmers designed for halogen bulbs may not dim LEDs reliably at low wattages.
Do I need an electrician to install this LED module and driver?
Yes, installation must be carried out by a qualified electrician in compliance with Part P of the Building Regulations, as this is a mains-voltage hardwired Class I fitting. The module and driver connect directly to your 230V mains supply and require proper earthing. DIY installation is not permitted unless you are a competent person registered with a self-certification scheme.
Can I use this module in a bathroom or ensuite?
No, the Kanto has an IP20 rating which means it offers no protection against moisture and is unsuitable for bathrooms. For bathroom zones, you'll need a fitting rated at least IP44 (IP65 for shower zones). This module is designed for dry indoor locations only, such as living rooms, bedrooms, hallways and kitchens.
What's the difference between 3000K and 4000K, and which should I choose?
3000K produces a warm white light with a slightly golden tone, ideal for creating cosy atmospheres in living rooms, bedrooms and dining areas. 4000K delivers a neutral white that's crisper and more energising, better suited to kitchens, studies and task-oriented spaces. Both colour temperatures offer the same CRI90+ colour rendering, so your choice depends purely on the mood and function of the room.
How bright is 960 lumens, and what size room will it light?
At 960 lumens, this 8W module produces roughly the equivalent of a traditional 60-75W incandescent bulb. It's suitable for accent lighting, task lighting over worktops, or supplementary illumination in smaller rooms up to around 8-10 square metres. For primary lighting in larger living spaces, you'd typically install multiple modules or combine with other light sources.
Can I replace just the LED module if it fails, or do I need to replace the whole unit?
The Kanto is sold as a complete module and driver kit, and both components are replaceable separately if one fails. The LED module itself is integrated (non-replaceable bulb), so if the LEDs fail you'd replace the entire module unit rather than individual bulbs. The fitting is covered by a 5-year warranty, so any manufacturing faults within that period would be covered.
