bro..no offence but you see the -ve about this LED thingy is the warranty, cost, and the ROI... Warranty, as per your previous post you mentioned a standard 1 year warrant..while the ROI comes in after (ie.) 2nd year...so we got to really pray hard that nothing will go wrong after the 1st year otherwise ROI will be just on 'Paper' considering the cost of 1 replacement LED bulb.. LED is the way to move forward, but not until its cost/price has gone down to a competitive level..that's my take for now...Otherwise I wouldn't hesitate for a second to change my whole house to LEDs!

No worries, none taken bro. You're absolutely right on this

That's why we cannot stress more that it is VERY important to purchase from reliable suppliers.
We offer all our clients a standard 1 year warranty on any of our LED products, some 2 years depending on quantity, and some also 3 years due to bulk purchases and our warranty is one-to-one. We are also working on a 5 year warranty for offices and factories. This warranty will only be void if we investigate that the product has failed due to over voltage current, and this is usually the cause from our experience as unfortunately mostly due to "honest client mistake" (direct plugging into 240V for 12V/24V LED

).
As you do, we also feel cost is always as issue but the more you invest, the more your returns will be. We are open to discuss the warranty period with you if you decide to change to LEDs for your house, and we're confident our product will last you many many years, and save several folds of your initial investment as well
cheers bro.

Centurionstareng,
How do we know how many light bulbs are required for a particular area? Can you plan and advise us on that or do we need to come out with our own plan?
Also, do u have any physical shop?
Thanks!
Good question. Brightness is a very subjective thing and thats why we always stress to go to "site" and take a look. From there, we can actually test up the various LED lights for you and let you decide how bright you want your personal space to be. This would be best.
Generally though, spacings between lightings such as downlight can range between 1.1 - 1.5m centre to centre (from on downlight to the other). We do provide on site viewings with our clients so that we can offer advise on how to best light up the area in question, so do email us at centurionstareng@gmail.com and we look forward to working on your requirements with you
Unlike a standard lighting shop, we are an engineering company strictly focusing into LEDs, solar panels and green technology. Although we do get many positive feedback that on top of having an office, we should also have a physical lighting shop for walk in customers. Well this is something we feel is too premature and may result in more confusion and frustration for the customers as LEDs are much more than what it is. Unlike standard lightings, many of our clients do consult us and retrofit their homes and we cannot simply match Btype standard lightings with Atype LEDs just like that. We strongly believe in order to provide full client satisfaction and understanding on LEDs, we need to ensure not only our products are of good quality, but they live up to our clients requirements in terms of brightness, durability, usage and pricing.
Hope the above was useful

and look forward to hearing from you.
