Demand a downlight cover to FIX Safety issues and save on Heating, Cooling and Lighting costs every year!
An Aussie home with 40 downlights, installed with Halogen Mitt’s, could save you up to 1848kW/h of energy a year, via Heating and Cooling alone! Click here for the Report
Featured at the Going Green Expo!
Downlight Cover Features include:
- Installable without an Electricians Licence.
- Includes Transformer Holder.
- Downlight covers can be Installed from beneath or above the ceiling.
- Our 35W SilverBack lamp provides equal brightness to a 50W Dichroic Halogen Lamp, but radiates most of its heat downwards and wastes no light upwards.
- Our 20W SilverBack globe can effectively compete against Compact Fluoro Downlights by producing brighter light output than most CFL globes, while consuming only 20W of energy. With the Downlight Mitt this retrofit effectively fixes the major problems associated with recessed lighting by enabling a downlight cover with an R-value and fire Rating which completely covers the back of the fitting to protect against insulation fire.

How Efficiency Matrix Fix's Downlights
The 35W Efficiency Matrix Energy saver downlight produces superior spread of light with much less heat radiating and zero light output from the back of the Lamp.
Lux output readings were completed by EcoMad. Raw data available
Halogen Mitt Key benefits for downlights:
- Save on lower Wattage Lamps
- Downlight cover includes an R-Value for insulation.
- Insulation installed all around the cover, (no clearances)
- Protect LED Lamps from extreme heat in your roof when Summer hits.
- Makes any fitting into a Fire rated downlight

- Installable from above and below ceiling over downlights
- An insulating material with a thermal R-value of 0.5 which significantly reduces heat transfer from both directions
- Blocks draught from downlights.
- Reduces Noise Penetration.
- The Halogen Mitt includes a specialized energy saving Lamp which directs heat downwards with no loss of light output.
- The LED Mitt includes an LED Lamp which produces great light output with only 5W of energy consumption. Makes your existing fittings into energy saving downlights.
The Halogen Mitt and LED Mitt have now passed Australian Standards! (AS/NZS 60598.1 and AS/NZS 60598.2.2)
The Halogen Mitt and LED Mitt is a patented Australian Innovation.
Downlights are the most inefficient lights you can put in your house. In summer they make your living area warmer, and in winter they make your living area cooler. Open air connectivity between your living area and the roof is a big “NO! NO!”. These two areas should be separated as much as possible, because the roof is there to protect you from the elements, not to join you to the elements.
This is the under lying problem with downlights and we have focused on resolving these issues head on in our downlight cover.
The Halogen Mitt and the LED Mitt;
- Passes certification for AS/NZS 60598.1 and AS/NZS 60598.2.2 (AS/NZS 3000;2007)
- Up to 2 hour fire rating (CSIRO tested)
- Mounting support for Iron core and electronic transformers
- Installable from above and below ceiling
- An insulating material with R-value of 0.5 which significantly reduces heat loss.
- Blocks draught spreading from the most windy parts of the house(the roof).
- The Halogen Mitt includes a specialized Lamp which directs heat downwards and provides the same light output as a standard halogen dichroic 50W lamp but only consumes 35W.
- The LED Mitt is an LED downlight which produces great light output compared to a 20W halogen Lamp with only 5W of energy consumption.
“Your light fitting is either in the living area or in your roof, there can be no in between. The Halogen Mitt Downlight cover finally resolves the ugly inefficiencies of downlights, cost effectively.”
The show ran us off our feet. People love their downlights, they just need a solution for them… Many people were not aware how badly downlights contributed to inefficiencies in home insulation. The Halogen Mitt is a premium product as a downlight cover for insulation installations. At the show, people finally found a downlight cover that worked.
