| I'm getting ready to do a kitchen remodel in CA with a permit, so Title 24 matters.
My electrician is suggesting Nora recessed lighting. I asked re: Cree - the lighting distributor says right now, Cree has the best LED chip, and most lighting manufacturers use it. He's saying the Nora 6" (NLEDC-66230WW) and the Nora 5" (NLEDC-56230WW) are as good as the LR6. The Nora choices cost $84.75 per light (housing plus trim), the Cree LR6 costs $100.16. Anybody know whether Nora does use the Cree chip and/or why I would want to pay $15 more for the Cree? TIA. |

| I don't have any experience with the Nora choices, but looking at the specifications, it seems that the LED chips may not be the same. You can get LR6 units for ~ 79.95 online. The LR6 also comes with the trim. |
Here is a link that might be useful: polar-ray

| Thanks, David, I chickened out on the Nora cuz I couldn't find really anything anywhere about them. I'm working to make a Title 24 solution work with CR6's with GU24 bases. It's been quite a runaround finding a way to do it without special ordering, but I think I got it figured. It's surprising to me that here in CA there's no place I can find locally that has the GU24 solution in stock. |

| I did find several places on line that have the CR6 and compatible housings; I'll add polar-ray.com to the mix when it's time to order. David, I really appreciate your willingness to help - not just me - I see you all over this forum!!! |
