The Perils Of Fitting Integral LED Downlights!

whjohnson
This is why I only fit conventional, GU10's with LED lamps.

Called out to look at some lights not working.

Fittings installed during 2015. KSR FRD 230 integrals.

Can I get a direct replacement nearly 4 years later?

Not a chance.

Oh, KSR are still going. They just don't do that model any more. Can't find a direct replacement anywhere.

All I get is 'discontinued item'.

The KSR replacement? Hole size different, bezel size different, every--thing different.

If it was just one light I wouldn't be too concerned, but it's a public bar and there are loads of the damned things, so to change one would mean it not matching the others, and all on public view. The 'interior designers' (cushion-throwers) would have a field day with their fen shui!

If anyone has any of this model in their stock, let me know! Finish is matt white, and I need at least 2 x off.

    Is there any chance of reclaiming a used downlight from some lower profile part of the premises ? such as a toilet or store room perhaps, or even an alcove or small corner of the bar area. A non matching replacement should be fine in such a location.
