CHEAP Halo H270ICAT 6-Inch 13-Watt Fluorescent Recessed Light Housing

The H27x series of housings lets you save money on energy costs without sacrificing lighting quality or appearance. Each of these products is designed for use with compact fluorescent bulbs, which use at least 2/3 the energy of incandescent bulbs and last up to 10 times longer. Each housing in the H27x series includes a thermally protected, 120-volt ballast that provides full light output, flicker- and noise-free operation, and rated lamp life.
These products are easy to install and offer flexibility across a variety of materials and situations. The hanger bars include pre-installed nails (self-tapping screws are also available) in special housings that ensure smooth, straight penetration, whether you’re working with laminated composites, engineered I-joists, open-web joist plates, or even frozen lumber. The automatic leveling flanges allow you to hold the housing securely in place with one hand while driving nails with the other. The housing also includes integral T-bar clips for use with suspended ceiling T-grid systems.
Halo also makes it easy to work in confined spaces. To install in joist spans of less than 12 inches, simply collapse the hanger bars then bend and break them along the score lines–no tools needed. The bars can also be removed and repositioned on the opposite side of the frame if you need to mount the unit at 90 degrees to the original configuration. Wiring is a breeze with Halo’s patented Slide-N-Side wiring system, which allows wiring outside the junction box.
The H270ICAT is rated at 13 watts (compare to the H271ICAT at 18 watts and the H272ICAT at 26 watts). It is rated for direct contact with insulation and air-tight construction prevents heat loss to attic. Available with a variety of trim options (sold separately). UL/cUL listed for damp location, wet location (with selected trims), direct contact with insulation, and feed through. Energy Star qualified.–Josh Dettweiler
