Building a Home Lighting Design Dilemma

Generic 2" LED downlight housing...what will fit?

2 years ago

Are most 2" LED downlights compatible with generic housings? My contractor installed 2" housings in our roof which was poured today (concrete & plaster). I'm not sure if the housing has an E26 connector or 120v. Will products like Elco Koto, Nora Iolite, and others fit into generic housing or are they incompatible?

Cheers
