question - can i install normal flourescent fitting t5/t8 directly on plain plaster ceiling?
the electrician say not strong enough wor ...cannot screw properly. i dun really like downlights cos at the end - it cost more to put in more light points and at the same times, u turn on more downlights.
2 T8 superbright x36w =72w where i believe it needs ard 6 downlight to get the same brightness = 6x18w = 108w

You need board or plaster ceiling wall plug. Normal wall plug cannot. Can get it from ACE.

Price difference between cfl and led, than watt difference, calculate the difference, multiply by the hours you switch on. You know how much you saved, and multiply by month you know how much you save a month. You should be able to rough out three ROI Oh to be fair, you need to compare same lumen too.

I think as long as it is a lamp that is on for long duration you should use LED. If it's the sensor type floodlight then use normal is ok... because the usage frequency affects your ROI.. =)

It is old dull design. So I search around and brought the nice cover design for flurosent light. But the bad thing about this cover is, after sometime, the cover will change color to yellowish and the plastic easlly crack. Probably due to heat from the light. probably some CFL light design or now trend, LED light.
