Features
The miniature version of the first open rated GU10 downlight on the market; the Ansell Icage mini is a more compact version which has an overall height of 89-100mm (depending on downlight type). This version now only houses perfect fit LEDs that have heights of around 55mm, deeper LEDs like the Philips 8W GU10 which is 80mm in height or the Philips Hue won't fit.
The revolutionary 'cool cage' open rated design allows the lamp (usually an LED) inside to ventilate whilst still providing fire protection. As opposed to traditional fire can downlights which cut off the air flow and prevent the lamp from 'breathing'.
Icage downlights increase the life expectancy of the lamp by improving airflow and reducing the risk of overheating and lamp failures. This is increasingly important when using LEDs which are more costly to replace than halogen. In recent years other brands have adopted this technology.
Overheating is the number one cause of LED failure. By using the Icage you are increasing the likelihood that the LED will last for as long as it is designed to ensuring that it achieves its full life expectancy of 25,000 to 40,000 hours.
Available in fixed adjustable and IP65 (bathroom) versions with the fixed position version being the most popular and cheapest type of Icage downlight.
The Icage Mini now comes with spring clip covers which protect those plaster board ceilings and help to minimise pressure on installers delicate fingers!

Specifications & Dimensions
Specifications Brand SpecificationsAnsell Lighting CRI SpecificationsCRI stands for Colour Rendering Index. It is a measurement of how well a light source can render the true colour of an object compared to natural light.
Rated out of 100, with an open flame or sunlight being a perfect 100. A light with 90 CRI and above would be classed as having high CRI, while 80 CRI is the standard for LEDs.
80 Ra Cap Type GU10 Dimensions Located Below Specifications Table Dimmable LED Not Included Downlight Type SpecificationsRecessed downlights are available in different types such as fixed, adjustable and bathroom (IP65).
Fixed downlights shine the light directly downards. Adjustable downlights allow you to redirect the angle of light onto a specific object or area.
IP65 downlights are water resistant and suitable for use in bathroom zones 1 & 2. Most integrated LED downlights are IP65 rated as standard. This means they can be used anywhere including kitchens and living rooms etc.
Fixed GU10 downlights don't offer any resistance to water, their IP rating is usually IP20. They have no seal and cost less.
Finish SpecificationsSelecting the appropriate color or finish for your lights and switches is key to creating a unified and attractive interior. Aim to match the finish of your downlights with other elements like switches and sockets. The matt white finish is especially popular for downlights as it seamlessly merges with white ceilings. More info here.
Fire Rated SpecificationsFire-rated downlights are engineered to maintain a ceiling's fire resistance, safeguarding against the spread of fire through openings needed for these recessed light fittings. More info here.
Yes Incandescent Equivalent Specifications50 W Insulation Coverable SpecificationsIn order to achieve Part L Compliance (energy efficiency) you shouldn't cut around thermal insulation. If you do this your home or building won't be energy efficient as valuable heat will escape through the hole of the downlight.
A downlight can act like a chimney and draw out warm, rising air from a room, up into the cold space above. The effect is increased in upper floors containing lofts.
Insulation coverable downlights allow you to place thermal insulation directly on top of them.More information about insulation coverable downlights.No Optional Lamps SpecificationsChoose between a selection of our most popular GU10 LEDs, or order the downlights on their own. A larger selection of GU10 LEDs can be found here.
Here is a brief description of the main 3 colour temperatures:- 2700K - Extra Warm White
Similar to a traditional light bulb or halogen. Not all LEDs are available in this colour temperature. This is often referred to as ‘soft white’ and is ideal for living rooms, or areas of relaxation. - 3000K - Warm White
Clearer lighting tone but still quite warm. This is the ‘new norm’ for general lighting and is the most popular option. If you’re unsure and want something less orangey than 2700K and not as harsh as 4000K, then try this. - 4000K - Cool White
A clearer colour tone, popular in commercial locations as well as bathrooms & kitchens. Cool white appears brighter than warm white as the LED is covered in less phosphor. It can make a room appear cold and clinical but used in a modern setting, it can make a room feel modern and brighter.

Mains voltage is 230V AC and has a tolerance of 10%, some products are 220V or 240V AC which means they can be classed as mains voltage.
DC voltages usually require an LED driver to convert the mains voltage AC into low voltage DC. Popular DC voltages are 12V or 24V DC.
