Abstract: A retrofit lighting fixture adapted to fit within a ceiling recess having a conventional electric light socket. The fixture includes a dome shaped reflector open downwardly within which a pair of fluorescent tube lights depend through receptacles in a circular top section. A cylindrical cover fits concentrically over the back of the reflector encompassing the connector ends of the tube lights. A hollow housing containing an electronic ballast for the fluorescent tube lights attaches to the cover. The housing has a cylindrical outer surface and may be formed as a ring, a plurality of cylindrical segments forming a ring, or a complete solid cylinder. A support cord extends from a male base connector through the ballast housing, cover and reflector. The base connector mates with the light socket and a friction member is advanced upward along the cord to the inner surface of the reflector to retain the fixture within the recess.
