In gastronomy, a wafer is a crisp, often sweet, very thin, flat, and dry biscuit, often used to decorate ice cream. In lighting, it is a very cool LED fixture!

 

LED lighting is getting crazier by the day. The good thing is that the fixtures are getting smaller and easier to install.

Installing recessed cans in an existing ceiling can be a pain. From crawling on your belly like a snake through insulation, to trying to mount the can with one hand so it won’t fall through the hole. Then there is the space factor. Trying to cram a 6 inch can in a 3 inch space full of insulation that many fixtures cannot have contact with.

Luckily, Lithonia has come out with a solution to these problems!

The Wafer LED!

The 6″ Wafer-Thin LED recessed downlight with remote driver box combines high quality light output and efficiency while eliminating the pot light housing for competitive affordability. This innovative wafer-slim Type IC design allows easy installation for new construction or remodel from below the ceiling without the requirement of a pot light housing.

Ideal for shallow ceiling plenum; no housing required. Steel spring clip for easy installation. 6″ cut out template is provided to ensure a correct sized hole is cut into ceiling for proper installation of the trim. Size of hole should not exceed 6 1/4 inches for this product.

Wafer-Thin downlight edge-lit LED technology uses light guided plate to distribute light.

Polycarbonate lens provides even illumination throughout the space. Utilized 3000K and 4000K color temperature LEDs.
