Description of Enhanced TORCHSTAR Ultra Slim Recessed Dimmable Downlight

Ultra Slim Design: This LED recessed ceiling light’s ultra-thin construction only needs 2 inches of ceiling space clearance, perfect for use in narrow ceilings that can’t fit a can. The solidly built metal spring clip creates stronger clamping for easier installs and longer-lasting lifespans. Reliable Waterproofing: This LED’s unique waterproof male and female connectors make this perfect for use in wet locations. IC rated, this slim LED downlight’s junction box is thermally protected and can have insulation come into contact with it. This means you don’t have to worry about our recessed lights overheating and causing a fire in the roof or an overhead joist space. Widely Application: The smooth 100%-10% dimming lets you easily adjust the brightness and this light is compatible with most dimmers on the market. The 100° beam angle and CRI of 90 makes this light perfect for use in closets, kitchens, hallways, doorways and even basements. Certified High-efficiency: ETL & ENERGY STAR certified, this slim panel light only needs 18W to produce 1250lm compared to a 90W incandescent light, saving you $1900 per set over its 40,000hrs lifespan. The LED’s frosted lens prevents glare and is scratch resistant. Guaranteed Quality: This light fits all new construction, remodels and retrofit installations. The aluminum light body ensures its 40,000hrs lifespan and is backed by a 5-year warranty that gives you extra protection.

LED bulbs Torchstar Ultra Slim Recessed 18W J-box

ETL & Energy Star, 5 year guarantee, white finish, 6 pack Good product! Easy installation for me. I wondered if the color would match the other recessed lights in the room, they're close enough not to notice the difference. (I used 3000k cool white) they look the same even though they are called 3000k warm white. Looks great quality. Came with a circle cut. The only thing not included in my setup was "Sigma Electric ProConnex 1" Compression Fitting for Service Inlet Connector". I needed it so…

They hum when they dim.

They are sleek, bright, have no lag when turned on at 100%, dim evenly across the range and appear to be of high quality. % hum a little louder. Even at 99% or 1% they hum. I tested 3/6 of the ECUs and they all buzzed about the same. The sound is about as loud as that of a large fly and can be heard up to 15 feet away outdoors. .The noise comes from the electronics box, so theoretically you could isolate it a bit to muffle it. However, I don't want to imagine how 6 of these will sound behind…

Pros
  • Brings joy
Cons
  • Discontinued model

Wow! What great customer service! I bought 6 pieces of 8" ceiling leds and found during installation that two power supplies were not working properly (I don't know for sure but I may have burned them with a cross connection to a different phase in the junction box). "). Luckily, Torchstar kindly sent me new ones free of charge. The bulbs look great, installation is very easy and the product quality is also excellent. I would highly recommend this seller and their products. PS Some thoughts on…
