Hunza Eave Light GU10 - Stainless Steel - Mains

A Mains Downlight for the Coast

The Hunza Eave Light GU10 in 316 marine grade stainless steel is a mains powered recessed downlight built for locations where salt air and driving rain are part of everyday weather.

316 Marine Grade Stainless Steel

• The visible face is genuine solid 316 stainless steel, not a plated or coated finish.
• Stainless steel can develop a light surface tarnish in some environments. Washing occasionally with fresh water keeps it looking its best near the coast.
• The finish stays consistent across multiple fittings along the same soffit run.

How It Works

• This is a mains fitting, taking a GU10 lamp directly with no transformer or driver required.
• A 65mm cut out takes the recessed body.
• Wiring is parallel, so several fittings can be looped from a single circuit.
• If you would rather use a low voltage transformer with an MR16 lamp, the same body is also available as the Hunza Eave Light in stainless steel, low voltage.

Where It Works Best

• Coastal homes, where 316 stainless steel earns its keep against salt corrosion.
• Soffits and eaves generally, for a hardwearing downlight that will not discolour like some metals.
• Porches, garages and carports where low maintenance matters more than a natural patina finish.

Seen in Our Own Hunza Schemes

We have sold Hunza outdoor lighting since 2003, and stainless steel mains fittings like this one are a regular recommendation for coastal customers who want a simple, low fuss install without a transformer to worry about.

Do pay it a visit if that sounds useful.

Good to Know

• Typical dispatch is 2 to 3 days. Allow 3 to 5 weeks if the item is out of stock.
• Returns are welcome within 14 days, provided the light has not been used or installed and is in its original box.
• No bulb is supplied. Fit a Hunza approved GU10 LED lamp to keep the IP rating and warranty valid.
• Never install the fitting without a lamp in place.
• We suggest using a registered NICEIC electrician to fit it.
• Rinse with fresh water now and then in coastal or exposed spots to keep surface tarnish away.
