Spec Value Why It Matters Output & Wattage 500–700 lm at 6-8W Right-sized output for residential-scale and commercial accent downlighting CCT Options 2700/3000/3500/4000/5000K Five CCTs in one SKU — from warm hospitality-grade 2700K to crisp commercial 5000K CRI ≥90 Renders skin tones, finishes, and merchandise accurately Installation Direct to ceiling, no housing Integral whip connects to existing or independently mounted junction box — no can, no frame, no patching Dimming TRIAC Compatible with standard Lutron, Leviton, and Cooper TRIAC dimmers without extra wiring Certifications ETL, IC-rated, Wet Location, ENERGY STAR Covers insulated ceilings and damp & wet locations One Fixture. Any 4" Opening. No Housing Needed. The MaxLite RCF eliminates the traditional recessed housing from the downlight installation equation — the fixture mounts directly to the ceiling with spring clips, fitting into any 4" opening, covering oversized cutouts with its extra-wide flange, and working with existing junction boxes in both new construction and retrofit projects. No Housing Required: The integral whip connects directly to a junction box — existing or independently mounted — eliminating the housing installation step entirely. No can, no frame, no patching over oversized openings, just faster installation and lower labor cost per fixture, especially on large multi-room or multi-unit projects. Extra-Wide Flange Covers Oversized Cutouts: If an existing 4" opening is oversized from a previous fixture or a rough cut, the wide flange covers it cleanly without patching, spackling, or painting — particularly valuable on retrofit and renovation projects. Five CCTs from 2700K to 5000K: Most commercial downlights start at 3000K. The inclusion of 2700K makes this fixture genuinely suited to hospitality guest rooms, restaurant dining areas, and residential-adjacent commercial spaces where warm, inviting light is the right choice — all with CRI ≥90 for accurate color rendering at every setting. Selectable Wattage at Install: Field-select 6W, 7W, or 8W to match output to the ceiling height and application without a separate order — one SKU handles the full range of standard 4" downlight requirements. TRIAC Dimming, No Extra Wiring: Compatible with standard TRIAC dimmers from Lutron (DVLV-10P), Leviton (6674-10W), and Cooper (DLC03P) — no additional wiring, no compatibility adapter required. IC-Rated for Insulated Ceilings: Rated for direct contact with ceiling insulation — safe for top-floor and attic-adjacent installations without clearance requirements or fire hazard concerns. Wet Location Listed: Rated for bathrooms, covered entries, laundry rooms, and other wet or damp areas — one fixture covers the full range of interior locations. Ideal Applications Hotel Guest Rooms & Corridors: 2700K or 3000K at lower wattage settings produces warm, inviting light in guest rooms — 4000K suits corridors and common areas. No housing installation reduces room renovation downtime significantly. Multi-Unit Residential: One SKU covers living areas (2700K), bathrooms (wet location listed), kitchens (4000K or 5000K), and common corridors — faster installation across large numbers of units lowers total project labor cost. Retail Spaces: CRI ≥90 renders merchandise accurately across all CCT settings — 3500K or 4000K for general retail, 5000K for product display and task areas. Restaurants & Dining Areas: 2700K warm white creates an inviting dining atmosphere with high color rendering that makes food and decor look their best — wet location listing covers outdoor covered dining areas. Office & Commercial Spaces: 4000K or 5000K at 7W or 8W suits standard commercial ceiling heights — TRIAC dimming integrates with existing commercial dimming infrastructure. Bathrooms & Damp Areas: Wet location listing and IC rating suit standard residential and commercial bathrooms, locker rooms, and any space with ceiling insulation in a damp environment.
