Commercial LED Downlight, Selectable CCT, White Reflector","description":"\u003cp\u003eLight Archon Cardea is an 8 in. commercial LED downlight for lobbies, corridors, and open ceilings that need a bigger aperture than a residential can. The white reflector delivers 1800 listed lumens with selectable output per source documentation, five color temperatures lock from 2700K to 5000K, and the driver runs 120-277V with dual dimming. Quote-first record: counts, service voltage, and dimming protocol are confirmed at quote review.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCardea installs can or canless per source documentation: universal steel spring clips seat the trim in standard 8 in. housings, or the unit lands direct where the remodel plan calls for it, with the included stencil marking the cut. The white reflector and matching flange hold a clean 9.8 in. face, the platform is IC rated, and the wet location listing with IP65 ingress per source documentation covers canopies and covered exterior soffits. On 120-277V service the driver dims on 0-10V control; on 120V it follows TRIAC and ELV dimmers. Color accuracy runs 80 CRI typical and is confirmed at quote review.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8 in. commercial aperture with a white reflector and white flange\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1800 listed lumens;
