Hi all, im in the midst of palnning to renovate my house. (noob here. no experience at all) my contractor told me to choose my own light. My question is where i can find one stop solution for all the light for the entire house , room, kitchen, toilet, balcony etc etc etc... yes, i know shopee lazada got a lot but i would like to have reliable light. dun want spoil in 2-3 months 2nd is as per title. How to choose the light with easy maintenance, which mean i can change myself easily if spoil. 3rdly, how am i know how many volt of the light i need? I asked my contractor, he told me to choose myself because he say later he choose, i will have issue, sometimes not bright enough or design not nice, worry i make noise. so he told me to choose my own. thank you very much

Downlight is still ok for maintenance, just need to know how to change it, but get reliable one coz the plaster ceiling easy damage the frequent you change it. 3) Bring your floor plan to lighting shop. Decide what lamp color you want in each room.

Buy those with bulb replacement type. Practical
Those that are spoilt and throw adviseable avoid including those with remote control unless you intend to keep some spares.
Once settled down, shop for some stand and table lighting to compliment it.
Have a mixture of warm white and daylight to suit the house.

Most if not all lighting shop sells only consumer grade lighting (Lifespan 10-15Khrs) which is fine for most domestic application. Typically usage around 4hrs/day, it will last 6-8 years. Not all brands the ratings are equal. Stay with reputable and established brands like Philips/Osram. In the market there are those with 30K-70Khrs lifespan for commercial/retail and factory use. I am using a Philips 50Khrs lighting and is entering its 8th year with no issues at all. Almost the same brightness since day 1.

Most of the professional series lighting are without SIRIM. Even the RM 8 China branded LED Downlight also have SIRIM. Most lighting shop recommends their preferred China brand as the profit margins are higher. This post has been edited by brutus: Nov 30 2022, 10:26 PM
