Most standard kitchens have them mounted centered over the lip of the counter top normally this will be about 25" of the wall. This will allow for adequate lighting of the work area without causing a shadow or a glare in your face. When placing the lights though, make sure you account for any top cabinets that are extending more than 12 inches from the wall. In that instance the light should be 12 inches off of the cabinet face to center of the light.
For recessed lights in a TV room, consider using lower-wattage bulbs around 40-50 watts to reduce glare and create a more comfortable viewing environment. Experiment with different wattages to find the right balance between illumination and eye comfort for your space.
The trim should just pull down. Because it is a recessed fixture nothing is screwed in it is all friction fit. Most trim kits have two spring wires that hold the trim to the ceiling. Once the trim is pulled down just release the springs on both sides of the trim to remove it completely from the fixture.
Sure. Get a recessed light that is designed to be installed in "old Work". You must hav eenough room in ceiling to contain the recessed light. There may be some issues in some locations where the recessed fixture may overheat if for instance there is insulation around the fixture. Light should have an over temp cutoff. There should be a template with recessed light and a built in box to wire in the power from the old light. If you carefully cut out the sheetrock in ceiling according to the template dimensions, you will be able to use the piece you remove to repair the hole should there be no room for the recessed light. If there is attic access where the new light will be installed, you may be able to use a "new Work" light fixture since you can mount it from above. Go to someplace like Home Depot or Lowes and see what they have available.

Using basic calculation of amps times volts equals watts you can see that a 15 amp circuit at 120volts has a capability of 1800 watts but a circuit should never be loaded above 80% so you have 1440 watts available. Most recessed light will not allow higher than a 75 watt bulb so assuming this take 1440 watts and divide by 75 watts to get 19.2 bulbs as you cant have a partial bulb go with no more than 19 lights. On a normal height ceiling of about 9 feet I never place recessed lights closer than 24 inches to the wall. As for interconnecting you just run a wire from one recessed light to the next. I would recommend that if you do not feel comfortable with the placement or wiring of these lights that you contact an electrician that specializes in lighting design to help you.
Recessed lights should be placed about 12-18 inches away from the wall for optimal lighting and aesthetic appeal.
The number of recessed lights needed for optimal lighting in a room depends on the size and layout of the room. As a general guideline, it is recommended to space recessed lights about 4-6 feet apart for even lighting distribution.
Should be fine if that is all that is on the breaker.
Typically, it is recommended to install 1 recessed light per 4-6 square feet in a room for adequate lighting.
The number of recessed lights to install in each room depends on the size and layout of the room. As a general guideline, it is recommended to have one recessed light for every 4-6 square feet of space. It is best to consult with a lighting professional to determine the specific number needed for each room.
Recessed lights are a great way to provide visibility throughout your kitchen without producing glare. This is accomplished by ensuring the the lights are located out of view. Recessed lights make it possible to highlight specific areas, which has both aesthetic and functional benefits. In order to start, you need to measure the kitchen and draw it up on a sheet of graph paper. Be sure to include all cabinets, islands, walls, and appliances. Mark where the current light switches are located. In many cases, you will be able to replace existing lights with recessed lights. The next thing that you should do is tie a string to a pendulum. Hook the string directly over the area in the kitchen that needs light the most. Use the pendulum to locate the areas that need to be lit well. Through this method, you can use the string to find the line of site for the best locations to put your recessed lights. Once you have a good idea of where you want your lights, indicate this on your graph paper. Repeat this process in order to determine if there are other places that you should install recessed lights. In many cases, you will benefit from having more than one source of light. It can be difficult to use the kitchen when it becomes dark, so make sure that all areas in the kitchen will be adequately lit. The last thing that you will need to determine before you get started will be the finished spacing. You can find this out by getting in touch with the manufacturer. The manufacturer will let you know how far apart the lighting should be spaced. You will also need to decide whether or not the lights should all be attached to a single switch, or to more than one light switch. When you do this, make sure that the set up for the lighting is convenient.
Are they ALL flickering or just certain ones? This happens most often with ceiling mounted lights due to the wires burning up from the lamp heat.

It should be on a wire coming off the battery. Not like a factory fuse. There should also be a relay mounted on your firewall passenger side.
