Questions We Hear Most

Can I dim the Nora NLCBC-4870?

Yes. It works with Triac or ELV dimming. Choose an LED-rated dimmer to avoid flicker (our advice).

Where can I install it?

It is damp rated: fine for bathrooms and covered outdoor areas, but not where water hits it directly.

Warm or cool light, which one?

2700K is warm and cozy, like a classic incandescent bulb; 3000K is a soft warm white that suits kitchens and living areas; 3500K is neutral; 4000K is a cool, crisp white for garages, offices and task areas; 5000K is daylight white. (our advice)
