You might recall I posted this thread about a month ago looking for ideas regarding 6-inch recessed can lighting on my personal home remodel. I was wanting to go LED's but when searching for Remodel LED Cans the price was quite high starting at around the $80/unit.
Well after some searching and head scratching I cam eup with two economical solutions. One for non dimming and another for dimming.
For the non dimming cans I used a $10 IC rated can remodel can and this LED Trim Retrofit kit for $20. So for this option cost was $30 per can.
For the dimming cans I used the same $10 can and these LED retro kits from Home Depot. Brand name is EcoSmart, but it is actually Cree in a HD brand box for $27. This option is $37 per unit. A lot better than the $80/unit I started with.
