Sunco vs Ensenior 5/6 Inch Retrofit LED Recessed Lights

Q: Which is damp rated?

Ensenior. Safety note: recessed lights connect to household wiring and sit in the ceiling, often near insulation. Turn off the breaker and confirm the power is off before you start, check the cut-out size and the clearance above the ceiling, and use a licensed electrician if you are not experienced with home wiring. Look for an IC rating if the light will touch insulation, a damp or wet rating for bathrooms and showers, and a UL, ETL, or Energy Star mark. Follow local code. Listings differ; we describe what each maker lists.
