I use the similar round type but is a fluorescent. For kitchen. But because the kitchen have 4 wall, the light bounce back and it very bright.

Fluorescent ok very bright but the LED type I see like dim dim. Dunno lah saw at daytime so can't really tell. I can look directly at it, that means not bright enough to hurt my eyes

Saw it at See Wide Puchong.

Sigh I dem screwed up. My light bulbs all no stock. I should have bought earlier  cry.gif

It is almost impossible to find cool white 4000K bulbs, be it led or cfl around my area, bangi. Currently, my downlight fixtures are fitted with two cfl cool white bulbs. Thinking of replacing those cfl bulbs with led bulbs.

Is it possible, in a fixture, to use 1 warm white bulb 2700K and 1 daylight bulb 6500K to produce something similar to 4000K?

Anybody tried it?
*
A range from 3500k is ok. As long as the lumens is high.

The strong lumens will give out bright yellow and reduce the yellowish.

Im using osram 4000K cfl. Even the philips and led brand i use now have 3500-4000K bulbs in their catalogie. But the prob is, i cant find any shop in bangi or cyberjaya selling 3500K-4000K bulbs. Thats why im thinking of mixing diff color temp bulbs to get desired result. Possible?
*
If you around bangi, go over to kajang.

Why a simple warm white CFL so difficult to find in this area?

What are you want to mix? 2900k mix with 5000k ? It is no problem as long as it close enough. I do mix the bulb cause the bulb is close together. Doesn't notice much.

Is it possible to install surface mounted downlight on a (metal) pipe instead of literally installing on the ceiling as I intend to have it "hanging" from the ceiling?

Some kind of a studio light ?

Hi guys,

I am currently looking for good LED downlights. Few years ago I used LED downlights from YetPlus, bought 25 units, each cost RM 89 with  1 year warranty, but they were so bad that each month I had to go to the shop to get replacement. After 1 year I decided to change all my lightings with normal energy saving bulbs.
Now I am moving to a new place, and due to bad experience with LED downlights, I was planning to use normal energy saving lights, but every shop that I visited told me that now everyone is using LED downlights and noone is using normal energy saving lighting anymore. So I start to think that I should use LED downlights again, but I am not sure which brand is good. So far I have been offered by 2 shops:
- Tong Ging : Epistar, from Taiwan, RM 69, with 3 years warranty
- House of lightings : GE, RM 79, 2 years warranty, they said this is their best quality LED downlights

Anyone has experience using these 2 brands, or any other better recommendation?

Many thanks in advance!

Didn't learn from your bad experience ?

you have to do a lot of hacking to loop all the wires if you intend to use surface mounted / no plaster ceiling.
unless you don't plan to conceal the wires but use surface mounted conduit
*
There is a way actually. Without conseal yet the wire invisible from your eye.

But only for knowledge and experience people. Cause the led require to be modify.

So in conclusion, any LED below 6500k should be fine?
*
2700k-5000k is fine.

2700k-3500k are warm white.

For local here and specially Chinese, are not so like about warm white. Prefer daylight. That 1 of the cause that lead them into buying the crazy 6500k bright.

Those 6500k are blue white. Since it have some blue, the color render out is not correct.

Example, the red thing you see under this led light is not the actual red. If you take it out under the sun, the red thing is different color.

The measurement for this color rendering is call CRI.

i ordered from philips china during 11.11 actually. so was around RM19-20 only. and just bought it along iwth other crap. but i seen a shop in Ikano/curve bridge selling it for RM27 i think. and lelong got it too but i never bought anything off lelong so yeah... i dunno. heres the link. RM25.

http://www.lelong.com.my/philips-scene-swi...7-06-Sale-P.htm

i will say the brightness for the warm white is nice. for me its perfect. but for the white my wife likes it (dunno why. i feel like im in my office). im using 6 in my living room and at 9.5W its much brighter than my previous 13W energy saver.

If your downlight is the std downlight casing, no problem for this bulb.
