4 in 5CCT Ultra-Thin LED Recessed Can Light - Selectable Color

Our review of this 4 in ultra-thin recessed downlight finds it best for homeowners and DIY installers who want flexible, energy-saving lighting without complicated wiring. The single biggest reason to buy is the built-in 5 CCT selectable feature that lets you choose 2700K to 5000K from the junction box, avoiding returns for the wrong color temperature. Installation is straightforward for retrofit or new work, and the lights deliver bright, uniform output while drawing only 11W.

Key Features

• 5 CCT-in-1: A slide switch on the junction box lets you pick 2700K, 3000K, 3500K, 4000K or 5000K so the lighting tone suits kitchens, basements or living rooms without swapping fixtures.
• High brightness: The wafer-style downlight produces about 800LM while using just 11W, matching the output of a 70W halogen equivalent for significant energy savings.
• IC rated: The canless design is permitted to contact ceiling insulation and the junction box is thermally protected, which reduces fire risk when installed in insulated ceilings.
• Low profile: The slim housing requires as little as 2 in of ceiling space, making it compatible with tight joists and a wide range of ceiling types.
• Easy install: Retrofit or new construction installs are quick using the included 1:1 hole template, spring clips and a direct junction box connection to household wiring.
• Certified safety: ETL and FCC certifications give reassurance about electrical safety and regulatory compliance for residential use.

Who It's For

This light is ideal for homeowners updating multiple recessed fixtures, renters doing permitted upgrades, and anyone who wants a single SKU that covers living areas, kitchens and workspaces thanks to the color temperature selection. Electricians and contractors will appreciate the IC rating and slim profile when working in tight ceiling cavities.

Those who need decorative trim choices, integrated smart-home controls, or ultra-warm specialty lighting may want a different fixture; this product focuses on practical, efficient downlighting rather than decorative trim or advanced smart features.
