downlight light source?

Hi,

Is there a downlighter light source around anywhere? I've sort of faked one up by putting a light source in a tube but the effect doesn't match what I expect to see.

TIA

Using light sources should be enough, unless you want to display them turned off.

I assume a light source model is a point source with equal intensity in all directions? Downlighters have a limited angle (MR16 bulbs are 36deg to the 50% points I think). So a 180deg source will not give the same effect. Is it easy to make a light source with varying intensity?
