Default Limited trim options for H7ICAT Hi-hat

I believe they are physically the same dimensions. Many recessed fixture
companies use three standard diameter fixtures. One for R-20, one for R-30,
and one for R-40. Halo decided for some reason to use the same frame size
for both R-30 and R-40 on their standard models, and although they curve and
taper the inside baffle on the 310 models, there's still an awful lot of
daylight around the lamp, and it looks silly. If you can get a hold of one
of the airtite trims, it does look a lot nicer. or you can cheat like I do,
and use the 410 trim, and R-40 lamp, just don't exceed the recommended
wattage, or the temperature cutout will trip


Thanks for the info. I'll look at the box stores again to see if they
have that 30wat trim, or I might order one online. If it does look
better, then I'll replace them.
