One of the most direct differences is the type of light source. LED downlights use LEDs exclusively as the light source, while recessed lights can use a variety of different light sources. Traditional recessed lights often use halogen lamps, incandescent lamps or fluorescent lamps, but with the development of LED technology, more and more recessed lights are beginning to use LED light sources.

In general, the manufacturing cost of LED recessed lamps is higher than that of traditional halogen or fluorescent recessed lamps, but compared with LED downlights, their cost is usually slightly lower, especially when complex heat dissipation systems and high-efficiency LED chips are not used.
