I have yet to find a fixture with an RFI-quiet power supply… Some suggest wiring up the LED modules to your own (quiet) supply, which is possible. Better to take the advice of K0IL and go with a recessed can fixture that can accept any screw-in bulb. There are a great many RFI-quiet LED bulbs on the market and you can of course also use incandescent. As technology changes, such a fixture can take advantage of it.
