I have been getting conflicting information.
Scenario: I am installing recessed lights.

amps per light (75 watt divided by 120 volts = 0.625 amps)
80% rule to circuit loading = 12 amps
divide amps per light = 19 lamps
This seems like an awful lot on one circuit. Even using 100 watts per
light
would put 15 lights on the circuit. I had read that 10-12 should be the
max.

Opinions please. thank you.




1500W of heat may be a inconvinient in the summer, consider fluorescent
that screw right in the same holder. They are more expensive but will pay
for themselves (if do not fail).
Screw in, built in ballast fluorescents turn on slowly though.
