Has anyone seen a good LED retro fit for 8 inch can lights? Several of our cans at the plant offices have been ballast bypassed over the years and changed to LED stab lamps, with CF type base. A lot of the sockets are now old and worn, giving trouble. Would sure be good to find some good inserts.
Some of ours that are still CF are emergency type too. Would be great to find something.

I’ve used 8” led retrofits from Nicor and Hubbell. They both had a 3/8” flex whip to connect to the existing j-box in place of the CF lamp holder.

For backup I’ve always used an inverter; that could get tricky depending on how many lights are on the circuit.
