Abstract: A light housing is provided. Housing comprises plate with light communication for LED luminaire attached to upper surface of plate, annular base having a rim, plurality of supports connecting plate to annular base, slots in each of plurality of supports; and retention clips engaged within slots. Housing includes j-box rotatably secured by support to plate with mounting brackets which include locking detents to maintain support in upper or lower positions. Also provided is fixture assembly comprising housing with LED light attached thereto. Further methods for installing assembly are provided and include positioning assembly through hole in ceiling substantially within above-ceiling space, locking retention clips against plurality of supports to maintain assembly in position relative to ceiling; and engaging upper rim of reflector with deflection clips attached to bottom surface of plate of assembly.

Abstract: A light emitting diode (LED) retrofit downlight light module (DLM) having a housing with an LED downlighting module containing a lighting exit port and connected to a reflector and trim ring having an illumination outlet. The DLM is inserted into an access hole after the existing fixture has been removed. By inserting the DLM into the access hole, a retention device compresses on contact with the entry surface surrounding the hole perimeter. Subsequent to the pivot point of the retention device passing the first surface, the retention device begins to apply a frictional force to the hole perimeter, thereby retaining the DLM within the access hole, without need of tools during installation.
