room size
ceiling height
lumen output per fitting
As a simple guide:
small rooms often suit 1 fitting
larger rooms may need multiple fittings spaced evenly to avoid shadows

Yes — but choose the correct IP rating:
IP44+ for moisture-prone indoor areas
IP54 / IP65 for higher exposure zones
Which colour temperature is best for indoor Oyster Lights?
It depends on the room:
Warm White (2700K–3000K): bedrooms, living rooms (cosy feel)
