The Juno® MD1LG2 Mini Square Recessed LED Downlight redefines compact architectural lighting by combining powerful performance with a sleek, space-efficient design. Consuming less than 5 watts of power while producing 300 lumens of crisp, white light, it outperforms traditional 20-watt MR11 halogen lamps with a fraction of the energy input. This fixture is ideal for installations where space is limited yet quality lighting is essential, such as in niches, bookshelves, display cases, and cabinetry within residential or commercial environments.
Available in a range of finishes including white, black, satin nickel, and bronze, the MD1LG2 downlight integrates seamlessly into any aesthetic setting. It offers multiple color temperature options—2700K, 3000K, 3500K, and 4000K—with 80 or 90 CRI typical, ensuring consistent and accurate color rendering for a variety of applications. Three precision optics—spot (16°), narrow flood (24°), and flood (35°)—allow tailored beam control for accent, task, or ambient lighting needs.
The fixture’s optical system is meticulously engineered for visual comfort and uniform performance. Its LED source is deeply regressed within a lensed optic and internal reflector, minimizing glare while maintaining a refined beam quality. Reflectors are finished to match the trim ring color, creating a cohesive, understated ceiling appearance. For reliability and longevity, the LED light engine provides a rated life of 50,000 hours at 70% lumen maintenance, backed by a five-year limited warranty on LED components.
Electrical performance is equally robust. The MD1LG2 requires a remote-mounted Class 2, 120V to 12V AC electronic or magnetic transformer for operation—specifically the Juno TL602E electronic transformer or the MAGXFMR magnetic transformer, both designed for compatibility and optimal performance. The fixture supports forward-phase and reverse-phase dimming protocols, maintaining consistent color temperature throughout the dimming range when paired with qualified dimmers tested by Juno.
Constructed with durability in mind, the die-cast aluminum housing is IC-rated, allowing use in both insulated and non-insulated ceiling applications. The wiring compartment includes a removable access plate and a four-pole terminal block for secure, quick connections. It is UL and cUL listed for daisy chaining and supports wiring with standard low-voltage cable types (Type CL2 or NEC equivalent, 18–12 AWG). Tempered spring steel torsion clips come preassembled to the housing, ensuring a secure and straightforward installation in ceiling materials from 1/8” to 1” thick. The fixture requires a 2-inch cutout, corresponding to a standard hole saw size for easy preparation.
The MD1LG2 downlight is UL and cUL listed for damp locations, RoHS compliant, and union made, ensuring compliance with stringent performance and safety standards. Laboratory testing follows industry-standard procedures, with specifications subject to refinement as part of Juno’s commitment to continuous product improvement.
Combining minimalist form, efficient output, and robust construction, the Juno MD1LG2 Mini Square Recessed LED Downlight presents a refined lighting solution for accent and task applications where precision, reliability, and aesthetic integration are essential.
