Appearance

A steel downlight is mostly gray, shaded to resemble steel. Flares on the side are meant to suggest a reflector, and the animated orange/yellow brightness on the bottom implies an internal flame.

Where Found

Steel downlights are produced at an electric or standard metalwork bench.

Use

Like a steel lantern, a steel downlight can be placed on any back wall, side or top of a solid block, and even on leaves or tree trunks. Despite the utility of doing so, they cannot be placed on the underside of a block if there is no back wall. They are also waterproof, and won't be dislodged by water, whether flowing or stationary.

The light given off is of similar intensity to a steel lantern, traveling approximately 24 blocks from the source, but mostly downward without a great deal of spreading.

If dropped on the ground it will produce a faint light source.

Notes

The first time a player has a blockhead place either a steel downlight or uplight, they will earn the achievement "Spotlight."
