Esy to install the color it matches perfectly well with other lights

Most expensive part of this job was purchasing the ladder to reach a 10 foot ceiling! Once I got the fixture down, it had the model number on it and brand, so I found it immediately on Amazon and it arrived within two days. No chance of being Incorrect, and so it was a perfect fit. Was very happy I was able to change it out myself (72 year old woman) without having to hire someone. Once you figure out how to get the spring fixture down, it’s just a matter of plug in and adjust the spring clips to seat again.

I finally got to install this light fixture. It was pretty easy to install in my shower stall. The adapter simply screws in, and you attach the pigtail to the main unit.Two issues: It did not retract all the way to the ceiling. It sits with about a1/8" gap from the ceiling. I'm not concerned because the shower does not steam up and the unit is rated for damp environment, so this is purely cosmetic. Secondly, the halo ring is a slightly smaller diameter from the original fixture, maybe 1/4" smaller. This allows a discolored area of the painted ceiling to show. Again, this is a cosmetic issue for me.The good news, This is a noticeably brighter light than the 60W incandescent bulb I had in there... brighter by about 33%. I can now see I need to scrub the tile better. I have been using the light for over a week now with no problems. If you're looking for a direct, easy replacement for an incandescent fixture, I recommend this one. HALO is a good brand, I have used their stuff before, and this is a great unit.

Was disappointed with the lights as advertise the trim ring was included and was not in the box. On the instruction Manuel said order separate. Very misleading.

I've replaced most of our old recessed-can fixtures with one-piece LED lights like this. I found out during the remodels that some of our recessed lights had a tall can, and others had a shallow can. I also bought some CREE fixtures similar to this one, but those only worked in the tall cans; this Halo brand works in both tall and shallow cans.Installation is dead simple: screw the adapter cable into the existing bulb socket (the adapter cable is included, although the website photo doesn’t explicitly show it here), clip the orange connectors together, bend the metal arms together, push up into the can, and release. The metal arms spring apart and the tension holds the fixture in position tightly.I like the clean look of the sealed light, and it is very very bright. Too bright for some locations, I think, but that's just personal preference. The CREE brand of these lights offers an optional black trim ring which reduces the glare somewhat, but I haven't yet found a similar item to fit this brand.

Found these from an amazon seller for $8 less each than the local lighting supply store where they were recommended to me. (Locally they were $42 each and I got them for $34 here.) These particular ones are 3000K (color temperature) and fully dimmable. Additionally, they have a CRI of 92. Be VERY careful and make sure you get the correct item number if you order these. I suggest you check the Cooper Lighting website for the exact combination of color temperature and CRI that fits your needs/desires. I was told these are far superior to what you typically find in the big box stores. They were easy to install. I had Cooper Halo 6 inch cans and they fit in perfectly. I put 8 of them in my new kitchen. The color is not nearly as warm as incandescent bulbs. If you want that warm glow, you should go with 2700K. However, these are not as harsh as fluorescent bulbs. They are just white enough and make the colors of the room pop. Make sure you get a compatible dimmer, as these are bright. I got a Lutron dimmer from their Skylark line. It's listed as compatible with these lights and works great. I would not want these without a dimmer and tend to keep them at about 50-70% power.Some people complain about a "hum" with some LED lights and dimmers. I can tell you that in complete silence, mine have a very slight hum. However, in a kitchen, with a refrigerator running in the background you'll never notice it. I'm not an electrician, so it's unclear if this is caused by the lights or the dimmer. With that being said, I probably would not install this particular combination in my dining room or living room where I would notice the noise and prefer a warmer tone to the light. But for a kitchen and hallway, they rock!

I bought Halo LEDs based on my contractor's recommendation, and they look and work absolutely great. He says he's been installing Halo LEDs for more than a year in homes including my friend's, the one who referred him to me and the feedback is all positive. I got 3000K and it's perfect. My contractor's preference was 2700K but that's too yellowish for me. 3500K might be too white for home use, in my opinion.They were very easy to install, it took the contractor about 5-10 min each. I already had cans for recessed lights but he had to adjust them to make more room (not required but recommended for extra ventilation).These are very reasonably priced ($36 each) and have longer life (50k hours) compared to others (CREE, Sylvania etc). 100bulbs.com has a great price on these but buying from them on Amazon saved a ton on shipping!I have them on dimmers (Lutron DVELV-300P-WH), a bit expensive but totally worth the price. Don't get the DVCL-153P-WH dimmers, they're not "electronic low voltage" type and not good for LEDs although they are labelled so.
