Some of the most popular fixtures these days are LED recessed lights. LEDs are quickly becoming the latest environmentally friendly trend in lighting, as they are much more energy efficient than incandescent bulbs. LED fixtures are approximately 70% to 85% more energy efficient as they don’t lose heat during use. If you need proof, watch this wonderful video from the Cree LED Revolution Lighting Blog to watch an interesting experiment involving melting Easter Bunnies. You won’t be disappointed.

This lovely 2″ recessed lighting is but one great example of all the styles available in LED recessed light fixtures. (Product Page: http://www.affordablelamps.com/lit-lrld219.html) Ranging in size from 2″ to 6″ and available with a variety of trims  (everything from reflector and baffle trim to the more exotic micro-eyeball trim or the frosted lens trim), LED lighting is the best way to save energy and electricity costs.

But of course, there are other energy saving options for recessed lighting as well. If LEDs are not in your price range, then peruse this collection of Liton Lighting compact fluorescent recessed light fixtures. Also ranging in size from 2″ to 6″ trim, these light fixtures are much more energy efficient than your average incandescent fixture. Recessed fluorescent lights concentrate the brilliance where it is needed, so you will be more effective in your lighting layout, needing fewer fixtures to achieve the same effect as incandescent lighting. This trend in contemporary lighting works for many different lighting situations–use low voltage lighting in your decorative/display lighting, task lighting, and retail product highlighting. Other creative applications include recessed lighting placement in swimming pools, fountains, and gardens or porches.

This smooth and subtle 5″ fluorescent recessed light is soft, a glowing, diffused orb perfect for any contemporary home. (Product Page: http://www.affordablelamps.com/lit-lr542.html) Available in White, Black, and Natural ring finishes, the trim can be easily altered to match the decor of any room in the house. And the soft, spherical bulb is unique and reserved, glowing just enough to add brilliance to the space, but without distracting with a glare. And as an added bonus, this recessed fixture can even be placed outside, as it is suitable for both damp and wet locations, as well as dry, indoor spaces.

But there are even MORE options when it comes to filling your home with rows of ambient recessed lights. There are also low voltage and line voltage light fixtures. Low voltage recessed lights are slightly more complicated to install as they require a transformer to bring down the voltage and save energy. Often the advantage of line voltage fixtures is that they’re less expensive because electrically they require fewer parts and are a simpler constructions, but if your goal is to save energy, then low voltage recessed lights are an excellent alternative.

And last, but not least, is the under cabinet recessed lighting option.

Perfect for contemporary lighting styles, Liton Lighting’s recessed under cabinet lights are a brilliant way to subtly illuminate your kitchen or workspace and highlight your counters or hobbies.
