QUOTE(10071985 @ Sep 3 2020, 05:47 PM) I am currently using downlight with Phillip 18W E27 CFL bulb (from online specification it is 1100 lumens) Is it correct to say that compare to a 13W Phillips Meson LED downlight (lumens 940), the LED will be dimmer? Yes in theory if you're looking at the bare CFL bulb vs LED downlight the CFL is brighter. But in practice the old school "hole in ceiling" holder type for CFL wasted some lumens shining the "hole in ceiling" rather than pointing direct to the floor (like the flat output surface LED downlight) |

QUOTE(Dfuzzy @ Sep 4 2020, 08:25 AM) What about the philips LED that look like the UFO, its a flat LED downlight but is E27 and can fit in 6 inch holder type. Am leaning towards that cos afraid to destroy plaster ceiling while changing light. In terms of light efficiency should be okay but you still have old type choke wasting power (some can operate with it there) |

QUOTE(aplio500 @ Jan 22 2021, 10:10 AM) Hi all. About 2 years ago i installed L box plaster ceiling with T5 for ambience lighting. I rarely turn on the T5 but i noticed now only around 3~5 functioning. Is it due to the T5 itself or other factor can cause broken the T5 even though rarely use? the T5 ballast dont seem to last long.. have one installed for dresser lighting (seldom use) the ballast (casing) also died fast. tube was OK. |

QUOTE(Jitty @ Mar 19 2021, 12:11 PM) hey sis, do you recommend to change to xiamo led light strip? as you mentioned T5 will spoil easily   Hi, I bought quite a few of the T5 light ballast during tesco cheap sale.. somehow the ballast and tube don't last long for infrequent use at dresser table  Already second or third change already - although cheap but T8 seem to last longer (judging from carpark T8). LED strip should be a better idea  |

QUOTE(Jitty @ Mar 19 2021, 12:44 PM) oic. then I might consider to use T8 or LED light strip then. when you are referring to T5, do you mind?  T5 short life in my case is the T5 tube batten and T5 fluorescent tube something like - https://shopee.com.my/OSRAM-T5-ECO-14W-BATT...1552.3439740272which I think either I got a bad batch, or the ballast inside the T5 tube batten doesn't seem to last long Recently bought a LED strip (4ft batten) - https://shopee.com.my/product/225126980/4565108929haven't installed yet This post has been edited by ceo684: Mar 19 2021, 12:58 PM |

QUOTE(daniel2006 @ Nov 3 2021, 04:04 PM) im thinking to put eyeball led living, dining and kitchen. living : cool white dining : cool white kitchen : warm white masterroom : warm white **warm white will be too dark or not for kitchen and masterroom? For warm whits 840 should be fine. This is less yellowish. 827 is an acquired taste. Not everyone can tahan. Dark or not depends on your lumens. |

QUOTE(daniel2006 @ Nov 9 2021, 08:11 PM) shit! i dont even see the doorbell switch at the gate... Doorbell switch. When u located the switch/yellow wire stumps, then ready to buy a doorbell - buy the 4-wire type (so the switch run on low voltage, not 230V like the dangerous dinosaur 2-wire type) |
