A 4-inch ultra-slim LED downlight with selectable color temperature, ideal for wet locations like bathrooms and covered patios, with a remote driver that fits into shallow ceilings.
The Nuvo Lighting S11829 is a 10-watt LED direct-wire downlight that requires no recessed can, making it perfect for new construction or retrofit projects. Its edge-lit design and ultra-slim profile (less than 1-inch ceiling clearance) allow installation in tight spaces like cabinets and basements. The remote driver provides flexibility, and the fixture is ENERGY STAR certified and Title 24 compliant.
Best for
- Bathrooms with wet location requirements, providing bright, even light for showers or tub areas
- Kitchens needing adjustable color temperature from warm (2700K) to daylight (5000K)
- Basements and utility rooms with shallow ceilings where standard cans won't fit
- Covered patios and outdoor areas rated for wet locations
- New construction or retrofit projects with its no-can-required design
Not ideal for
- Spaces requiring a replaceable light source - the LED is integrated and not replaceable
- High-ceiling applications where a deeper trim or adjustable beam angle is needed
How bright is it?
600 to 650 lumens depending on color temperature - comparable to a 60W incandescent bulb. This is suitable for task lighting in kitchens or general ambient lighting in bathrooms and hallways, but may not be sufficient as the sole light source in large rooms over 100 sq ft.
Light color and feel
Selectable color temperature from 2700K (warm white, similar to traditional incandescent) to 5000K (daylight, crisp and energizing). The 2700K-3000K range is ideal for cozy living spaces, while 4000K-5000K works well in task-oriented areas like kitchens and workshops. CRI is not specified but typical for this class of fixture.
