An 18-watt dimmable LED light kit for ceiling fans, finished in brushed nickel, ideal for adding bright, energy-efficient light to your fan.
Part of the Fanimation Fitters Collection, this light kit upgrades your ceiling fan with a modern, low-profile design. The brushed nickel finish complements a wide range of fan styles and room decors. It includes a high-output LED module that delivers 1400 lumens of warm white light, making it a practical choice for living rooms, bedrooms, and covered outdoor spaces.
Best for
- Living rooms and family rooms where you need bright, general light from your ceiling fan
- Bedrooms with a ceiling fan, providing ample light for reading or dressing
- Covered patios and porches (wet-rated for this SKU) where you want durable, weather-resistant lighting
- Replacing an old or non-functional light kit on an existing Fanimation or compatible fan
- Spaces with 8-foot or higher ceilings, thanks to its low-profile 3-inch height
Not ideal for
- Bathrooms or other damp locations if you need a fixture rated for damp conditions (this kit is rated for dry locations only)
- Fans that are not compatible with this specific mounting system - check your fan's compatibility before purchase
- Spaces where you prefer a decorative or statement light fixture, as this is a functional kit
How bright is it?
This kit produces 1400 lumens - roughly equivalent to a 100-watt incandescent bulb. It's bright enough to serve as the primary light source in a medium-sized room, or as a strong supplement to other lighting.
Light color and feel
The LED module emits 3000K warm white light - a soft, golden tone similar to traditional incandescent bulbs. With a CRI of 90, colors appear vivid and accurate, making it suitable for spaces where you want true-to-life color rendering. The light is dimmable, allowing you to adjust the ambiance to suit your mood.
Sizing and fit
This light kit measures 8 inches in diameter and 3 inches in height, with a low-profile design that fits most ceiling fans. It's designed for use in the United States (110-volt wiring) and may not work properly elsewhere.
