| Finally getting around to installing more lights in our dark family room. I will be installing 6 Cree LR6s with the GR24 fitting. I am hoping to use the Halo H750RICAT housings (cheaper than the H7RICT that I used for the kitchen since there is no edison socket or adjustable metal disc inside). Not too sure if the output will be too overwhelming--if so I would like to install a dimmer that matches the existing ceiling fan/light controller.
Two questions-- (1) Does anyone know has used the Lutron Maestro MA-600MR-WH dimmer successfully with the LR6s? (2) Does anyone see any problem using the H750RICAT housings with the LR6s? Thank you in advance!! |

| I'm not sure about the Maestro dimmer. I think the ELV version will work better. You can contact Cree You will need to use the GU24 adapter supplied with the LR6. I used the H750ICAT which is the new construction version. |

| Davidtay-- Thank you for letting me know about your successful experience with the H750ICAT--looks like the dimensions of the can portion of the new construction and remodel versions are identical. I found the specs for the MA-600 embedded in the Lutron website--http://www.lutron.com/TechnicalDocumentLibrary/Spec Guide%2 0Volume 1 with Addendums.pdf It appears that the specs are similar to the MRF2-6ND which is listed as LR6 compatible on the Cree website. Will see how this works. Thank you again! Happy Thanksgiving!! |

| Just some followup--the Lutron Maestro MA-600MR-WH is working well with the LR6s. The Halo H750RICAT 6 inch housings worked perfectly--I just snipped off the orange Halo plugs and spliced in the GU24 adapter--AND the H750RICAT is $4-5 cheaper than the equivalent Edison socket Halo insulation contact airtight can! Again, thank you Davidtay! |
