By the way down here the Expo Design Center (Home Depot's high end stores)
are closing and everything is 50% off.

I was there today and came across a return item, two boxes of trims for
the 6" housings. Those are Halo 30WAT, and each box has 18 of them each
one was marked down to $10.00 and 50% off that. So I got all 28 of those
trims. However I did not notice that some of them are different, turns out
I ended up with 11 of 30WAT and 17 of the 30WATH. They look the same
except the 30WAT (62400 60332) the upper inside part of the cone is white,
anf the 30WATH (62400 68832) the upper inside part of the cone is silver.

I took your advice and used H7T housing for most of my down lighting and
it seems the 30WAT(H) will work, according to Halo's website I can use
100W A19 if I wanted to but I probably will use 75W instead.

I wonder if I can tell the difference between 30WAT and 30WATH down from
below after the bulbs are inserted.

That is an airtite trim. You remove the guts of the frame, leaving the
ceramic socket which clips into the end of the trim, with a gasket, keeping
it air tight. Be careful when installing them, the spring wires that hold
the trim into the frame, can be a bit tricky, and the rim of the trim bends
very easily
