Interior Down Lights - tglass - 12-23-2021
Anyone replace their interior down lights. 2001 41 Open currently has recessed Cantalupi lights with a 66mm (2.6") cut out and one has quit working. What did you replace yours with? What would you do differently if at all?
Thanks

If you are unable to find the Cantalupi model, Imtra makes replacement lighting that is nearly identical. I have found Apex Lighting to be a good source.
Are you sure the fixture is bad? I found bayonet style LED replacement bulbs that worked perfectly in those fixtures.

The Cantalupi was going out intermittently and they are quite dim so I've decided to replace them. I found the Imtra and also an aspectLED model that seems to have more color and trim options plus is less money that the Imtra.
Didn't think to replace the bulbs; maybe I'll try that first and see if its brighter than the original

Give me your e-mail address & I will send you a spreadsheet w/ all bulbs & replacement #s. I tried to attach the speradsheet to this message.
DO NOT buy cheap ones from China. 2 overheated & melted lenses. That's when I went with a more reputable dealer.

Thank you Bruce, I got the spreadsheet. Have a Merry Chirstmas
