One Fixture Covers Every Room — From Warm Lobby to Bright Utility Closet.

Stop stocking five different ceiling lights for five different color temperatures. The SDL 28W surface mount lets contractors pick 5CCT on site, dims down to 10% on a standard switch, and the Night Light version handles hallway ambiance without a second fixture.

Set the Color Temperature on the Job — Not at the Warehouse

The on-board 5CCT switch (2700K–5000K) lets you match the tenant's spec after the fixture is mounted. No returns, no reorders, no second truck roll when the designer changes their mind mid-project.

Skip the Night Light Fixture — It's Built In

The NL version includes a 3W soft-glow mode for hallways, stairwells, and bathrooms. One junction box, one fixture, two lighting modes. That's one less line item on the BOM and one less hole in the ceiling.

No Recessed Can? No Problem.

Surface mount design with an ultra-thin profile installs directly on concrete ceilings, drywall, or anywhere a recessed housing won't fit. Perfect for retrofits and remodels where cutting isn't an option.

Dim with What's Already on the Wall

Compatible with standard 120V ELV dimmers — smooth dimming down to 10% with no flicker and no special hardware. The dimmer the electrician already has in stock works fine.

Black or White — Ordered Right, Not Painted On Site

Available in both finishes so the fixture matches the design spec out of the box. No spray paint touch-ups, no aftermarket covers, no callbacks for mismatched aesthetics.
