A 4-inch smart LED retrofit downlight with RGB and tunable white light, designed for wet locations like bathrooms and covered patios.
The Nuvo Starfish S11638 is a versatile smart downlight that lets you control color temperature from warm 2000K to natural 5000K, plus millions of RGB colors, all from your phone via the Starfish app. Compatible with Siri, Alexa, Google Home, and SmartThings, it integrates seamlessly into your smart home. The white baffle trim reduces glare, and the E26 adapter makes installation easy in existing housings.
Best for
- Bathrooms with shower or tub areas rated for wet locations
- Covered patios, porches, and outdoor eaves where moisture is present
- Kitchens and living rooms needing tunable white light from warm to cool
- Home theaters or accent lighting with color-changing RGB effects
- Smart home setups with voice control via Alexa, Google, or Siri
Not ideal for
- Spaces with very high ceilings (over 12 ft) where a 4-inch trim may appear small
- Users who prefer a fixed color temperature and do not want smart controls
- Non-IC rated housings if direct insulation contact is needed (check local code)
How bright is it?
650 lumens at 8W - equivalent to a 50W incandescent bulb. This is suitable for general ambient lighting in small to medium rooms (up to 50 sq ft per downlight) or task lighting in showers and vanities. For larger rooms, multiple units are recommended.
Light color and feel
Fully tunable white from 2000K (very warm, candle-like) to 5000K (cool, daylight) plus full RGB color spectrum. The 90+ CRI ensures accurate color rendering for makeup, art, or cooking. Dimmable via app or voice, with smooth dimming down to 1%.
Sizing and fit
Trim diameter 5.04 inches, fits standard 4-inch recessed housings. Overall depth 1.02 inches. Requires a compatible junction box or housing (not included). Suitable for wet locations, so it can be used in shower ceilings or outdoor covered areas.
