In a small shed at the back of his property,
Tim Mobbs, a second generation electrician
established M-Elec after seeing the need
for reliable lighting and building
basic LED modules.

Tim & his father Geoff build an LED profile with an opaque diffuser,
which was installed into Australia’s first purely LED commercial application.

Tim designs and releases the first wide beam, dimmable LED downlight when at the time all others in the market had narrow 35-degree beams, terribly designed lenses and multiple LED’s showing. M-Elec introduced simple things like adding interchangeable trims and large terminal blocks for easy installation.

M-Elec releases the 1BOX LED downlight solution with 3 colour outputs and 2 trims in the one box.
This reduces inventory, suits a large number of installations and
starts the 3 coloured LED revolution throughout Australia.

M-Elec wins a Good Design Award for the unique packaging of ‘downlight in a bag’ made to aid cleanup and reduce waste.

M-Elec releases its first version of the NOX series with great success due to its exceptional lumen output, offset bracket for easy installation and efficacy.

M-Elec launched the revolutionary tool-less plug base the Blind snake Taking one extra step out of installation. Blind Snake wins a Red Dot design award the same year.

Always pushing further the team at M-Elec expanded on the Blind snake technology and launched the Rapid 10 downlight.

In an effort to better serve our customers the old PLI system was given a revamp and became M-World. M-World is rapidly expanding to offer our customers, an easy to use platform for warranties, assets, resources, education, an open community to discuss all things M-Elec and more.

The XC Connector and connector system is launched. A great example of our innovations being created specifically to make electricians lives easier.  The XC (eXchangeable Connection) system is just that, a system created to make connection type the installer’s choice. Meaning replacing drivers and using the right connection for the job are that much easier. Do your job your way.

M-Elec is moving into the automation and smart technology market with a new product called Stitchy set for release mid-2019. Keep your eyes peeled.

Designed for electricians, the new NOXBOX makes junctioning simple. We’ve listened to your feedback and have updated the NOXBOX to be even more durable whilst maintaining it’s functionality and easy installation. Fitted with three quick snap connectors, rigid cable clamps, and a built in IP65 seal that removes the need for a silicone gun, the NOXBOX comes with everything needed for any junction box installation.

After working with electricians for feedback for 2 years M-Elec releases its APEX range of spotlights with single screw fit-off, load-out terminal, tool-free adjustments and a 3 3 axis sensor gimble.
M-Elec enters into the prestigious Good Design awards and is awarded with 1 Good design award for the NOXBOX130 and a Gold Good Design award for Stitchy!
