General Information

What is the SunAura Skylight?

The SunAura Skylight is PanelCraft’s signature artificial skylight range, engineered to bring natural daylight into any interior space. Using full-spectrum LED technology and an advanced optical diffuser, it recreates the look of a real roof window — complete with a vivid blue sky effect and dynamic light that transitions naturally from sunrise to sunset throughout the day.

A real skylight requires cutting through the roof structure to allow natural sunlight into the space — this is not permitted for HDB flats. An artificial skylight uses LED and optical diffuser technology to recreate the effect of natural daylight safely within your existing false ceiling, with no structural works required.

Yes. The SunAura Skylight is classified as a ceiling-mounted lighting fixture and is fully HDB-compliant. No structural alteration or HDB approval is required.

We offer two models under the SunAura range:

1. SunAura Realistic Skylight
A deep-housing unit that projects light at an angle, mimicking the directional quality of real sunlight entering through a roof opening. Best for clients who want the most immersive, realistic sunlight effect. Requires more ceiling depth.

2. SunAura UltraThin Skylight
A slim-profile flat panel that delivers even, diffused sky-blue light across the room. Ideal for homes with lower ceiling clearance or a preference for a clean, flush aesthetic.

Lighting & Smart Features

Can the colour and brightness be adjusted?

Yes. Both SunAura models support stepless adjustment of brightness from 5% to 100% and colour temperature from 3000K to 6000K.

Colour Temperature Options:

  • 6000K — Morning sky blue
  • 4000K — Afternoon natural white
  • 3000K — Warm evening glow

Control Options:

  • Tuya Smart App
  • Google Home
  • Amazon Alexa

Yes. Both models feature a built-in 24-hour circadian light cycle that automatically adjusts colour temperature and brightness throughout the day — transitioning from a warm sunrise tone in the morning, through bright natural daylight at midday, to a warm golden glow by evening. A slow fade on/off function and memory-on-power-up feature are also included.


Both the SunAura Realistic and SunAura UltraThin models support the following control methods:

Control Methods:

  • Tuya Smart App — available on iOS and Android, and integrates with Google Home and Amazon Alexa
  • Wall switch — on/off control via standard wall switch
Yes. The SunAura Skylight uses energy-efficient full-spectrum LED and can reduce the need to run multiple lights during the day. The circadian dimming function also ensures the light is never brighter than necessary, further lowering electricity consumption.
Yes. Both SunAura models use full-spectrum LED technology with a colour rendering index of Ra ≥ 95, significantly higher than standard LED panels. This allows colours to appear more accurate, vibrant, and true-to-life. Safety & Lighting Standards:
  • IEEE-certified lighting performance
  • No visible flicker
  • No glare hazard
  • No blue light hazard
  • Exceeds classroom-grade lighting standards

Installation Requirements

Do I need a false ceiling to install the SunAura Skylight?
Yes. The SunAura Skylight is installed flush into a false ceiling framework. A ceiling void is required to conceal wiring, mount the unit securely, and achieve the realistic skylight effect.
Minimum ceiling clearance varies by model. SunAura UltraThin Skylight
  • 300 × 600mm, 300 × 1200mm, 600 × 1200mm — minimum 90mm clearance
  • 600 × 600mm — minimum 130mm clearance
SunAura Realistic Skylight
  • 300mm width — minimum 120mm clearance
  • 600mm width — minimum 230mm clearance
If you are unsure of your ceiling clearance, share your ceiling height and room details with us and we will advise before you commit.
The SunAura Realistic Skylight projects light at an angle. During installation, you can choose which wall the beam faces. Installation Recommendation:
  • Direct the light beam towards a solid wall for the best effect
  • Avoid directing the beam towards a mirror or doorway to prevent direct glare
  • For the best visual result, position the unit no more than 1.7m from the wall it illuminates
SunAura UltraThin Skylight — compatible with:
  • Integrated aluminium ceiling panels — direct fit
  • Silicon calcium board and mineral wool board — direct fit
  • Plasterboard / gypsum, PVC panels, and honeycomb boards — requires cut-out opening
SunAura Realistic Skylight — compatible with:
  • Integrated ceiling — aluminium panels and honeycomb board
  • Recessed / embedded installation — suitable for honeycomb board, timber ceiling, or plasterboard
Before scheduling installation, our team will request the following details for assessment: Required Information:
  • Wall length and ceiling height of the installation area
  • Available ceiling clearance depth
  • Ceiling material type, such as plasterboard, aluminium integrated panel, or timber
  • Site photos for assessment
This allows us to verify the correct sizing, ceiling suitability, and wiring requirements in advance. Important Note:
  • If the required details are not ready, installation may need to be rescheduled
A 2-core wire is required for the SunAura Skylight. Before Installation:
  • Please ensure your electrician has prepared the required 2-core wiring before the installation date
  • Our team will confirm the exact wiring point location during the pre-installation assessment
Approximately 1–2 hours per unit, including wiring. For new renovations, installation is typically coordinated alongside ceiling and lighting works.
