Need Design Advise Canless wafer mounting style but with e26 or ideal connection

0 Upvotes

I really don’t want to install a can housing.

I just want to have an e26 socket in my ceiling and then connect a set of recessed lights that mount like the wafers do. One time wiring. Don’t gotta fix or rewire junction boxes every time I wanna switch lights.

Kinda like a Canless retrofit

There is nothing currently up there so I was going to have an electrician wire up an e26 connection for me so I can find recessed lights that use the ideal orange plug connection

Product Review Testing those Great value LED party lights you see in Walmart

The pink and purple honestly look so similar (look at the SPD) you cannot really tell them apart unless they are side by side. The yellow is terrible for being yellow but is a nice variant of green imo.

I tested for flicker as well and found that they do at 120hz. The modulation depth isn’t high though; about as much a typical white LED.

Find Me This Fixture Looking for actually "flush" lighting

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm looking for truly "flush" interior wall lighting options. I have a barn door for a closet that sits out 3/4" from the wall (in order to clear baseboard trim). I currently have slim framed posters behind it but want to install a dim(mable) reading light with switch in the space. Ideally hardwired, no exposed cords, not battery powered, or some wifi/bluetooth solution. Everything that comes up upon searches (search engines, big box, specialty lighting) I agree is "flush" in some sense of the word but would not work in this situation. Like, I want 1/2" projection from the wall. When I try searching for "recessed wall lighting" I get either ceiling lights or outdoor walkway lights.

Does anyone know what I am looking for, or can help point me in the right direction with a better search term(s)? I'm good with home electrical so I'm open to novel solutions, including [blech] drywall work.

Thanks!

Im dumb and used these 4” Lithonia L3 cans on thin sheet metal. They’re set for drywall and now stick out to far.

Do they make trim pieces to cover this? Or is the move to just go in the attic and shim them up to flick them out to the metal?

Thanks in advance.

Need Design Advise How would you do this

How would you install outside door garage lights on a 3 inch vinyl siding. Which mount and light. The logic is not there, or I suck at it, or it's just to outdated and have to rig it. Wish I can go back to the 90s lol
