Held as UK stock, ex-warehouse Leicester. This SKU is one line within the JCC whole-lot commercial-lighting parcel (~8,585 units, GBP 8,500 ex-VAT for the entire lot), listed here for reference only. It is not sold separately; the parcel is supplied as a single lot, to trade.
Box-label photo evidence — JC87013 in white finish.
The JCC JC87013 is the Ultimo Mini adjustable metal-halide downlight in its narrow 10° spot optic, white finish, held here as a 45-unit run. It shares the compact, recessed, gimbal-adjustable body of the wider Ultimo Mini family and is built around a G8.5 CDM-TC ceramic metal-halide lamp of 35W or 70W — a small-aperture, high-colour-rendering light engine. The distinguishing feature is the tight 10° beam: this is the true pin-spot member of the range, made for isolating a single object, a plinth, a sign or a feature with a concentrated, high-intensity accent.
This stock is supplied as the fitting only — the lamp is not included. As an empty luminaire it is not subject to the lamp or Ecodesign restrictions affecting discontinued lamps, so it trades and installs freely, and it is a natural LED retrofit candidate. The Ultimo Mini's die-cast body and adjustable gimbal are built to outlast the CDM lamp several times over, and with G8.5-based LED CDM replacement lamps now available a buyer can convert these to low-maintenance LED pin-spotting and return a premium adjustable downlight to service at a fraction of new-fit cost.
The narrow 10° optic is what makes this SKU worth pricing on its own merits. Pin-spot fittings are specified for a specific job — precise, high-drama accenting — that flood and mid-angle downlights cannot do, and they are comparatively scarce in the surplus market. Held alongside the 40° flood Ultimo Mini elsewhere in this parcel, the 10° spot completes a matched flood-and-spot set from a single discontinued family, which is exactly what a designer needs to accent and wash a display coherently, or to repair and extend an existing Ultimo scheme without a visible mismatch.
For the trade, a run of 45 matched adjustable pin-spots is a genuinely useful holding for a boutique-retail, gallery or museum refurbishment, or for a refurbisher building an LED-retrofit resale line. Because the Ultimo sat at the quality end of commercial downlighting when new, the housings retain real value as serviceable, retrofit-ready fittings, and being discontinued there is no factory undercutting them on price — the classic surplus arbitrage of buying quality housings and reselling them as working LED luminaires.
Commercially the JC87013 is offered as UK surplus / liquidation stock for trade and resale only. It is not a retail product and is not sold as a stand-alone line: it forms part of Austral Prime's JCC commercial lighting whole-lot bulk package — roughly 8,585 units across infrastructure, fittings and architectural hardware, supplied as a single lot for GBP 8,500 (ex-VAT) ex-warehouse Leicester. The whole-lot structure lets one buyer take the entire discontinued range at clearance economics and then place the individual lines into their own maintenance, refurbishment, retrofit or export channels at trade margin.
End applications remain live because the requirement — a compact, adjustable, high-CRI pin-spot — has not changed; only the lamp technology has moved to LED. Jewellery, fashion and homeware retail, museums and galleries, showrooms, hotel and hospitality display, and premium commercial fit-out are the natural homes for these fittings, whether re-lamped to LED CDM replacements or run on metal halide where a compliant lamp is sourced. Re-using die-cast housings rather than scrapping them supports a clean sustainability story for buyers on a circular or refurbishment model.
On comparable pricing, adjustable ceramic metal-halide pin-spots of this grade were premium products when specified, and the LED equivalents that replaced them still price at specification tier. A surplus die-cast Ultimo Mini housing bought at clearance and re-lamped to an LED CDM replacement therefore delivers a premium adjustable pin-spot at a fraction of new cost, and the tight 10-degree optic is a scarcer, higher-value configuration than the floods that dominate the surplus market. Held with the matching 40-degree flood elsewhere in this parcel, a reseller can offer a complete accent-and-wash set from one discontinued family, which is exactly what a designer needs to keep an Ultimo scheme coherent when extending or repairing it.
Typical buyers are electrical wholesalers, lighting refurbishers and retrofit installers, commercial fit-out firms, pallet and job-lot liquidation traders, and export resellers serving the EU or Australian markets.
