  • What on earth is this light fitting and where can I buy a replacement?

    Just bought a home and one of the bedrooms has some weird lights. LEDs on a dimmer. I couldn't find any markings on the unit itself, so have opened it all up and there is some text on the PCB, but it isn't very helpful so far in finding a replacement. Attached are pictures of the light unit I pulled out of the ceiling, and the driver unit it was plugged into.

    If it's gonna be impossible or very expensive to find a similar replacement, is there a good way to change over to a more common dimmable LED light type as a DIY job?

  • It’s just a modern light fitting where the whole lot (driver, LEDs and bracket) goes in the bin if one part fails.

    Search “LED downlight” for replacements. They aren’t expensive, and the ceiling hole should be a standard size.

    (You could also replace them with GU10 sockets and LED bulbs, though it’ll probably work out the same price)

  • it’ll probably work out the same price

    Probably more, but then lamp replacements when they fail are £2😉

  • Sadly it's far from a standard size. I'll measure once kiddo falls asleep, but it's a massive thing compared to what I'm used to.
