## Questions & Answers

**Q: Dimmable?  My recessed lights were dimmable, but after using the can converter and installing a dimmable pendant, the light will only turn on and off.**
A: The dimming function is normally in the switch, not the fixture.  If you dimmed the previous lights with a dimming wall switch, then the pendants would also dim unless they use a bulb that is not dimmable.  Some LED bulbs will not work with certain dimmers, and most fluorescents are not dimmable.  These converters have no effect on dimming or not dimming.

**Q: When ordering, are the measurements for the cut hole in the ceiling or should it include the trim piece measurement of the can light?**
A: Remove the trim piece and measure the cut hole in the ceiling.

**Q: My housing does not have holes for screwes. I tried to drill holes and it is very difficult. How can I fixed the kit on the housing?**
A: I agree that you can use self tapping screws.  If that doesn't work, buy a special drill bit that is designed to go through metal (they are available at Lowe's and Home Depot).

**Q: Does this work for hanging a 30ish lb ceiling fan?**
A: The R4 in not rated for ceiling fans. Only the R56.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great!

### ⭐⭐⭐ Easier said than done
*by A***R on December 22, 2025*

The instructions and videos make it look simple. It's not. Problems: 1. The "bracket shoes" that are supposed to tighten the device into the can are impossible to budge, and the wrench that's supplied to do this isn't deep enough, so it's useless. 2. The "self-tapping" screws meant to hold the device into the can are not self-tapping at all. I had to drill a hole for them. 3. These screws need to be tightened with a 90º screw driver/drill adapter. 4. The grounding screw gets in the way of the mounting bar that's part of the fixture being installed. I used this to install a track light, in case that matters. If there's a better-designed device for turning a can light into a standard electrical box, I'd love to see it.
