Downlight Setup

04 steps

Everything you need to install and style your Downlight is included in the box.

In the box:

  • 1 x SuperColour Canless Downlight with White Trim
  • 1 x Optional Magnetic Recessed Black Trim
  • 1 x Optional Magnetic Flush White Diffuser
  • 1 x E26 Screw Connector

You’ll Need:

  • A smartphone (iOS 18.0+ or Android 8.1+)
  • The LIFX app (download from App Store or Google Play
  • A 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network (Most smart devices require 2.4 GHz. If your router combines 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, that’s usually fine.)
  • Your Wi-Fi password

Important Notes:

  • Keep your phone near the light during setup.
  • Make sure Bluetooth is enabled.
  • Ensure your phone is connected to the same Wi-Fi network you want the light to use.

Before you start

  • Turn off power at the switch and circuit breaker
  • If not qualified to work with luminaire electrical systems, contact a qualified electrician

Retrofit installation steps

  1. Screw the E26 connector into the metal can and ensure the orange connectors are plugged together.
  2. Bend back the spring clips and push the fixture into the metal can until the light sits flush with the ceiling.
  3. Fold back the springs on the sides and hook into the metal can to secure.

Style (choose one)

  • Deep baffle in white — remove the black magnetic face
  • Deep baffle in black — leave the black magnetic face in place
  • Flush to ceiling in white — attach the magnetic flush diffuser for more evenly distributed light
  • Want a custom colour match? Paint the detachable black face to suit

Tips

Do not use with a standard incandescent dimmer — the light will not operate correctly.

Install in a fixture that provides sufficient airflow around the light for optimal performance.

Not suitable for outdoor, wet, or excessively hot environments (e.g. near ovens or heaters).

To factory reset, turn the light off and on at the switch 5 times (roughly one switch per second). The light will cycle through four colors and stop on white when the reset is successful.

These retro cans are amazing, easy to set up and work very well. I’ve been using Apple home products in all my commercial and residential buildings and LIFX is superior to most.

Works well.

Wish you could hold up/down to adjust brightness multiple levels, rather then a series of long presses to get to were you want with single steps.

Easy to wire and install, a little difficult to set up because I have a mesh router, but once I bound the IP address, it’s been flawless.

Do I need an electrician to install this?

No. The SuperColor 6in Downlight Retrofit uses a standard E26 screw base, so it drops straight into your existing 6-inch recessed can fitting — no wiring, no tools, no electrician required. Most installs take under 2 minutes.

Do I need a hub or bridge?

No. Every LIFX downlight connects directly to your 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. No bridge, no gateway, no extra hardware — just screw it in, open the app, and you're done.

What color range does it support?

The SuperColor produces billions of colors plus tunable whites from warm candlelight at 1500K all the way to cool daylight at 9000K. With a 90+ CRI you get accurate, true-to-life color rendering across the full spectrum.

How bright is it?

1200 lumens from just 14.6watts — equivalent to a traditional 80W incandescent bulb, with a clean 110° beam angle designed for recessed ceiling applications.

What smart home platforms does it work with?

The SuperColor 6in Downlight works with Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, Samsung SmartThings, and supports Matter — so it fits into virtually any smart home setup you already have.

Can I mix white and black fascias?

Yes. The downlight ships with interchangeable white and black fascias so you can match your ceiling finish without ordering a different product.
