Yeah, HD still sells them. I'd like Cree to bring it under their own branding to help reduce confusion. Plus I think HD is putting a little more of a markup on them than Cree might, but I suppose the price makes some amount of sense. What I don't understand is why the 4" models are almost twice as much as the 6" models.

At the moment, I don't see any way I could replace all the downlights in my home with these things. After a rough count off the top of my head, I have 40 recessed lights all over my house. That would mean at least $1K to replace all of them, and I'm sure I have some 4" cans in the mix.


Neat! Thanks for mentioning that. I see that they have some halogen spot light replacements, which we have in a fixture over our kitchen island. I didn't see the ceiling fan replacements, though. The only type of bulb in my house that isn't represented by Cree's lineup is the candle type. I have at least 20 of those in five light fixtures (outside sconce, two chandeliers, a couple ceiling fixtures). I'd imagine that those are probably very tough to make, and the ones I've seen so far from other manufacturers look pretty terrible.
