A 6-inch ultra-slim 12W LED recessed downlight with selectable color temperature, designed for wet locations and shallow ceilings where a traditional can won't fit.
This Satco S11827 downlight combines a low-profile edge-lit design with a remote driver that requires less than 1 inch of ceiling clearance. The white finish and utility style make it a versatile choice for new construction or retrofit projects, from basements to covered patios. With five CCT settings and dimmable operation, you can dial in the perfect light for any space.
Best for
- Wet locations such as covered patios, porches, and exterior eaves
- Shallow ceiling cavities like basements, cabinets, and soffits
- New construction or remodel where no recessed can is desired
- General ambient lighting in kitchens, hallways, and laundry rooms
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring a replaceable light source — the LED is integrated and non-replaceable
- Decorative or accent lighting where a trim style is needed
