Twice Bright Lighting offers the only solution for small aperture remodel IC recessed lighting. We have multiple solutions depending on your situation. Please see some general information below that will guide you through our product offering.

Is there a height restriction in your application? If you have less than 3 ½” of space to work with you must use our low voltage downlighting. If you have over 3 ½” of space you can use either our low voltage or line voltage fixtures.

• Maximum 20W GU5.3 based aluminum reflector halogen lamp.
• Shallowest recessed lighting in the marketplace. Fixtures are 2 ½”.
• Can be used as primary lighting in most applications.
• Low voltage halogen bulbs produce a whiter, brighter light than line voltage halogen bulbs. You will get 33% more light out of a low voltage halogen bulb than you would out of an equivalent wattage line voltage halogen bulb.
• We recommend using Philips Energy Advantage IR Halogen MR16 with aluminum coating. The lamps put out the equivalent light of a low voltage 35W MR16 or of a line voltage 50W MR16.
