Does this fit in a historic old home? Our house was built in 1905.

Answer:
I do not know of any reason why this housing would not install in an old home. The only limitation is that it cannot be in contact in ceiling insulation.
By Smp from San Antonio on April 8, 2013
Answer:
The thickness of the ceiling material is somewhat critical here. I believe they expect 5/8". Our ceiling was 3/4" thick, and getting the clips to latch was difficult. We had to use a screw in a couple of them. Also, the clearance above the ceiling and to the sides is somewhat critical (you need about a foot above and on one side and 1/2" around everywhere else), but you can "adjust" the connection to the metal electrical box slightly to accommodate a tight spot.
We coupled these with the 2700k, 650 lumen led retrofit trims. Very nice result.
BTW, If your house is on a historical registry or neighborhood, the local authorities may take a dim view (no pun intended) of these.

Easy
March 7, 2012
Easy to install, nice to have quick connects for wiring, solid can, not what I ordered but will work in other installations.
Merchant Response:
This product has always been described as an non-IC rated housing.
Pros:
Nice solid can
Wires nicely
Cons:
Was not what it was advertised to be.
Listed as IC originally on website but has since been corrected to just air tight.

You can count on Pegasus for great products and service!

We're doing a complete makeover of our kitchen. Pegasus has been a key partner throughout the process. We purchased a dozen under-cabinet fixtures. Terrific low-profile lights that the contractor appreciated for their ease of installation. When we decided on a dropped ceiling in the foyer we needed three recessed lights fast. Pegasus delivered the ideal fixtures three days later. Once again the contractor loved the ease of installation. And the trim rings are just right for our application. Thanks Pegasus! We know we can count on you.

Don't know why you would want to spend more

The light cans worked really well. Easy to connect to wiring, nice stick-on template for cutting the holes and a fairly easy to use clamping system. (Once you figure it out.) Don't know why you would want to spend more than this since these work just fine and the trim rings fit and look great.
