tiffany table lamps will help you to actual lighting

Now the good news is that you have no end of choices when it comes to lighting as you can use fancy ceiling lights, table lamps, floor lamps and different ceiling and wall fixtures which can be placed at just the right angle to give off exactly the right feel for the room. This site Link removed will help you to find actual lighting strategy. Many people actually just use a combination of table lamps and floor lamps to get the same effect as you don't need a complicated setup to get the right lighting effect.

Thanks

Led stip light

LED stip light is good for decoation, but i think, it's not enough fo illumination.

I also find LED strips and high power LEDs generally good. At the LED store I bought strips and high power spots, both are brilliant, and I use some of the strips as main lighting as well in my living room, corners of the ceiling.

This is the way it is normally done in Bhopal?

LED Strips Lights provide business and home owners with a wide range led strip offer innovative and cost effective ways led strips are economical, environmentally and far less expensive to maintain than traditional lighting options.

Well mabe in theory nothing should be hot.. but I have felt some cheap CFLs and the base is too hot to touch.. I have found Philips ones to run the coolest.

CFL Bulbs = HOT inverters and FIRE maybe? = YUCK!

What are you talking about? Nothing should be hot.

They only looked a little BLUE on PIX, but if you notice on top of the AC Power Plate, the Plate is White which the LEDs does make it White. You don't see it in real life...

By far i'm a lot happier than the CFL Bulbs

CFL Bulbs = HOT inverters and FIRE maybe? = YUCK!

I have both and lost two LEDs due to overheating - probably cheap ones (not cheap to buy unfortunately).

I have yet to lose a single CFL the past four years - proper installations in two new homes. All T5 florescent lamps are doing fine. Incandescents only used for motion activated lamps and have replaced one bulb there.

I plan to install driveway illumination (very low level) using LED fixtures in the near future - will be interesting to monitor them for power consumption and all.

Looks a little to blue for me.. I would use ones that are closer to white . but not those yellow looking "soft white".

[Sunking]

Yep looks like Blue Light Pollution to me.

Here you will find a good Article

http://ezinearticles.com/?All-About-LED-Strips-4---The-Eternal-Debate---SMD3528-Vs-SMD5050&id=4670120

That is one of the few articles I have read that did not try to sugar coat the efficiency and used real numbers including the driver power consumption. Probable not stated in terms laymen will catch or understand, not does the article point it out th efficiency is in a range of 24-50 l/w. To put that in terms most can understand is it is only slightly better than a plain ole incandescent Edison bulb, and less than CFL. It falls way short, 24 to 50% of fluorescent tube types which come in @ 100 l/w.

There is a problem, regulators use power.

Then with that logic, I assume that if there is no regulation then replacing the blown LEDs is .....acceptable? Not for my money!

[Sunking]

If the source is regulated,

The CRI index for the husband of a tetrachromat is still not good enough.

My next job will be to create a RGB 3 channel LED circuit board with 3 or 6, 1 watt LEDs so I can mix the colors to get true white, that dims to an amber color, like incandescents do.

[LEDJohn]

Is your source regulated?

If the source is regulated, any 12VDC frexible strip will do very well. The store I work in sells the heck out of it 'cause it is cersatile, dimmable and easy for beginners to work with.
