Last option is to get a coring specialist, core through the mid of the beam. Likely u will core through the link but shouldn’t affect the integrity of the beam provided your core diameter is small, advisable 50mm or lesser. Main bars are at the top and bottom of the beam. Not practical due to high cost. Hacking or punching a hole through the beam using breaker or drilling hammer is a big no no. The vibration will affect the integrity of the concrete. Your call.

Morning guys,

I plan to replace my current pendaflour light to LED. Previously ive done that at my house and i dont have any problem to make it suceed. Until i read this.



My concern now is that some of the light at my hometown using dual pendaflour light like this



The one with dual stick down to the housing unit. So, anybody have done this replacement before? Any tips?

No difference.

yes can but how many of these you gonna put?
also remember that your wifi must always be on or you wont be able to control them with your phone
another way is to use smart switches instead of smart bulbs
The one in your sample picture uses E27 screw type sockets. There are not a lot of ceiling fixtures that takes this kind of bulbs, mostly table lamps
Also consider the lumens, it is only 450 lumens which is about a 40 watt incandescent bulb
There are also smart downlights like these available -

Thanks!

No difference in terms of installation? 'Double capped fluorescent' at the Philips bulb is not the same as what I thought dual fluorescent?

They install the same as the wiring in single tube and double tube is the same.

Ic. Thank you for the clarification 👍👍

any electrician can intro?
i'm converting my florescent lights to LED's.

DYI.... gut all your existing florescent casing except for the N & L wires...insert a new LED tube...I'm converting my house as well...

Hi guys, I'm installing track lights on my own, for those points with 5 wires (1 green, 2 black, 2 white), I just connect the black and white to my track light and it's working ok.

But for my bathrooms, it has only 3 wires - 1 green 1 black 1 white, I connected black and white to the light but it's not lighting up, any ideas?

I tested two track lights both are not lighting up, the wires are also showing electricity when I tested with test pen.


Thanks in advance!

Hi is it possible to switch from a 98mm cut out to 68mm?

Any lighting specialist / designer that including lighting installation?

Hello guys,

Need your advise here.

My contractor plan to install 18w LED downlight to all area.

1. Is the downlight placement okay?

2. What is suitable watt for toilet? I prefer to have hotel feel. Not too dim and bright.

Bedroom 1 needed another 2 nos 6 inch downlights

If you want hotel feel make sure the light bulb color temperature is 4000k or 3000k, the lower the warmer color

Ohh... I thought, more watt more brightness.
Thanks for the advise.

xphr3ak I meant the light bulb color temperature not the watt

Oh... How about watt? Is 18w/bulb suitable for 32.2sqm(living & dining area). OR should i go lower watt? I want jimat elektrik too.
