LED ceiling lights<\/a>\u00a0offer many benefits over fluorescent or incandescent alternatives. Aside from their incredible energy-efficiency and lifespan, the compact size of LEDs allows more flexibility in design. LED downlights and ceiling panels often fit into relatively shallow ceiling voids and are a cleaner, more hygienic lighting solution for hospitals, schools and offices. Surface-mounted fittings are also transformed in scope and performance by LED lamps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Lyco we keep a watchful eye on lighting innovation and trends and select only the best products for our customers. Here are our top 10 LED ceiling lights:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knightsbridge 5W Dimmable Fire Rated Downlight<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This downlight offers a 25,000 hour lifespan and a 3-year manufacturer\u2019s guarantee. Fire-rated, this downlight is tested for 90-minute ceilings, allowing crucial evacuation time for upper floors during a fire. Its impressive energy-efficiency easily surpasses the requirements of Part L Building Regulations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luceco 5W LED Downlight<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To perfectly mimic the high quality light of a 50W low-voltage halogen equivalent, this superb downlight uses a special LED module with an 5W Sharp Cob LED chip. Its smooth, crisp light is delivered in a well-controlled beam with extremely low glare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

High Performance Downlight<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are two main differences between these two fittings. The first is longevity \u2013 the Sysion has a 50,000 hour lifespan against the 35,000 hours of the Cavan, so it\u2019s ideal for long hours of use. The second is that it can be customised via interchangeable bezels and diffusers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LED Light Panel<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

An improvement over old fluorescent modular ceiling fittings, this panel fits directly into existing ceiling grids. Its 50,000 hour lifespan and energy-efficient performance will significantly reduce maintenance and running costs. This is an ideal fitting for offices, schools, hospitals, and many other environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rondure Pendant<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Contemporary fittings like this Rondure pendant are often suspended low over dining tables or desks. This concentrates their light and creates a feeling of intimacy, even in a busy setting. A Decorative Filament Bulb is good for this purpose, as it\u2019s attractive look complements the gold inner perfectly . The Rondure is ideal for restaurants, cafes, bars, or the home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

LED Batten<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

LED lights offer a variety of extra benefits over even the best modern fluorescent tubes. This LED batten not only slices a third off the running costs of a T8 fluorescent tube, but it\u2019s also longer-lasting, tougher, immune to multi-switching, contains no mercury and is suitable for exterior use. Need we say more?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prodisc LED Flush Fitting with Microwave Motion Sensor<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This excellent LED flush fitting automatically switches on when it detects movement. To add to its capabilities it can be wired to a series of slave fittings, so that multiple lights are switched on by the same sensor. With its cool white 5000K output, the Prodisc is ideal as a money-saving LED fitting in environments such as hospitals or schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carina LED Flush with Microwave Sensor<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Carina is a great alternative to the Prodisc. With its IP65 rating, this dust-tight and water-resistant luminaire can be installed almost anywhere, including outdoors or in bathrooms and washrooms. The subtle warm white light of the Carina is ideal for hospitality settings and residential use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scorpius 4-Light Spotlight<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Modern spotlight fittings such as the Scorpius often come with integrated LEDs, so you\u2019ll get years of service before any replacement is required. The Scorpius is a ceiling bar with fully adjustable light heads. Because the beam of an LED carries no IR heat and little or no UV, it is better suited for lighting sensitive objects such as artworks or textiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Acorn LED 3-Light and Track Kit<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

A track lighting system offers a little more versatility than a ceiling bar, as each light can be freely moved along a length of track as well as being angle-adjustable. The Acorn is ideal for lighting rooms and displays that are often altered. This light kit, which consists of 1-metre length of track and three spotlights, can be extended to a maximum 30 metres using separately available track lengths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Investing in LED ceiling lights<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Whether you\u2019re an architect, interior designer, specifier, or end-user, LED ceiling lights deliver a new level of lighting performance whilst drastically reducing energy bills and the carbon footprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
