Thanks

Hi, may I know what's the power wattage of the E27 LED bulb that you normally use for those gate pillar light? Without going through the try and error to avoid wastage.

Do yourself and everyone else a favour and avoid globes. Half the light output goes everywhere and causes light pollution.
As for wattage, if you have proper reflectors on your housing, you don't need much. 5 to 10w LED is good enough for accent or ambient light. |
