Ketra D2 inside a residential steam shower — is it feasible?

The question: can a Ketra D2 handle the environment inside a residential steam shower with 15–30 minutes of heat and steam per day?

We could mount the D2s outside the glass enclosure, but the glass will fog up during operation, which significantly diminishes the lighting effect.

If the D2s can work inside the enclosure, the cleanest design is:

  • D2s overhead for color and primary illumination
  • Plain 1800K static-CCT tape (sauna-rated) for ambient warm glow

If the D2s can't go inside, the alternative is:

  • Sauna-rated RGBW tape for both ambient warmth and color
  • Two candidates we've identified:
    1. Core Lighting LNT65SPA-F-VB-RGBW-27K-PF-24V (neon form, 32 ft continuous run, standard Lutron dimming compatibility)
    2. American Lighting Sauna COB RGBW (flat COB form, 14mm, 90+ CRI)

Looking for your thoughts.

Anyone using Inovelli alongside Lutron HomeWorks QSX + Ketra?

In the Ketra Lutron world they seem to want everything on their system.  I'm ideally wanting a few Ketra controls in certain places throughout the home but have Innovelli for scene control in places like bathrooms where there will be Ketra D2 lights? Looking for real-world experience.

I had an installer come and wall mount this- he's done around 200 Frame TV installations and never run across anything like this. This is the 2026 brand new Frame TV (not pro).

We measured the mount and it's level. Perfectly Flat.

There are no obstrucitons of any kind.

However the damn think sticks out on the bottom. Quite forcefully by about an inch.

Anyone run acros sthi syet with the new model?

Two clues.

  1. One clue is that the device can be pressed flush- he put some tape on to make it stick down and the bottom but it the tape comes loose after an hour.
  2. While there is an overall gap at the bottom, there is more of a gap on the left side than the right. Thank you.

A quick note on context: most of the remodel uses Limestone and Taj Mahal, so the palette leans toward warm taupe tones. Actual images of the slabs in question are attached.

  1. Dark and Stormy — Cappuccino quartzite, fairly dark, paired with Eclos Tajnar on the countertop and back wall.
  2. Relaxing Spa Vibe — Blue Ijen with gold veining. I'm hoping the prominent brown veining will tie it back to the Taj Mahal in the kitchen and the Limestone in the guest bath.

Thoughts?
