- Consider the 120-degree beam angle for optimal light distribution.
Mark Drilling Points:
- Use the fixture or mounting bracket as a template to mark the drilling points on the wall or ceiling.
Drill Holes and Insert Anchors:
- Drill holes at the marked points using an appropriate drill bit size for the provided wall anchors.
- Insert the wall anchors flush with the surface.
Wire the Fixture:
- Open the fixture to access the wiring terminals.
- Connect the electrical supply wires to the fixture's terminals: Live (L), Neutral (N), and Earth (E) if applicable, following local wiring codes. Ensure connections are secure.
- Close the fixture securely, ensuring no wires are pinched.
Mount the Fixture:
- Align the fixture with the drilled holes and secure it using the provided screws. Do not overtighten.
Restore Power:

Operating Instructions

The HOFTRONIC C-Series LED Basement Light is designed for simple operation.

Power On/Off: The light fixture operates via a standard wall switch connected to its electrical supply. Flip the switch to turn the light on or off.
Light Output: The fixture provides a consistent 1160 lumens of 4000K neutral white light. This color temperature is ideal for tasks requiring good visibility, such as in workshops, garages, or utility rooms.
Diffuse Illumination: The integrated diffuse shade minimizes glare, providing comfortable lighting that reduces eye strain, even when looking directly at the fixture.
Wide Coverage: The 120-degree beam angle ensures that light is distributed broadly, effectively illuminating larger areas.
