The Nella surface mounted LED downlight provides wide, even illumination with a clean and modern profile. Designed for general lighting, its broad beam angle makes it ideal for open spaces and everyday use. The durable powder-coated aluminium finish suits both residential and commercial interiors. With tri-colour selection and optional dimming on the 240V model, it offers flexible lighting to suit different environments.
12v model must be used with a suitable 12v DC LED Driver.
Choosing a driver
The 12v DC version runs on low voltage and needs a 12v LED driver, installed by a licensed electrician. The 240v version wires straight to mains and does not need a driver.
Allow 18w for each downlight and add about 20% headroom. 2 downlights draw 36w, so they need a 12v driver of at least 44w, which in practice means a 60w driver.

For bigger installs, split the lights across two or more drivers and place each driver close to its group. Long cable runs at low voltage lose brightness at the far end, so check your cable size with our voltage drop calculator.
Indoors, an indoor 12v driver mounted in the ceiling space works well. If the light is going outdoors or under eaves, use a weatherproof IP66 12v driver.
