I've got a sloped ceiling that I want to install the low profile LED's without the can that just lock into the drywall. There's not enough room in the rafter to install the full can setup. Only problem I'm running into now is I can't find these that have an angle option to point downward and not with the slope.

Anyone know if they exist?

Those are retrofit for cans. I don’t have enough room for the cans. I need to use the pop-in low profile style I linked above.

Fisheyes won't work?

I personally am not a fan, but it's not my house

I'm actually looking for that variation, but not in the retrofit for the can...just the pop in with the junction box attached.

Something like this? That connects to a Jbox?

I haven't seen an adjustable that just has clips for sheetrock. They have low profile sloped cans that maybe will work.

Yep. But angled for the slope of the ceiling.

Just found one in Prima Lighting but it's ugly. But i'm sure you can find one online.

The issue is that the space I'm wanting these in is along the roof rafters. So I'm going to compromise something, heat loss, etc. going with the slim cans.

Yes, I was referring to the set up. The disc with a rotatable center light.

Might be able to buy both and macgyver something up.

Just get a shallow depth can designed for a 2x6 depth and use the normal kit. They’re air tight and rated for insulation contact, so you won’t lose much heat.

thanks for showing me this, I may need to use that on some jobs. 20 degree tilt though, so it will only work on gradual slopes
