Hi Hapless101, i was intending to use LED track light for my living hall too. But was rejected flat by my electrician. He said that LED is focus lights, though it will be bright but that's only at the focus spot. He then suggested to use ceiling lights or downlights... i've went to lightings showrooms to look at LED track lights and ask the salesperson to on the track light and close the rest of the lights in the showroom... the light can bright up the floor... but the surrounding is quite dark. as in the surrounding walls. Hope that this info helps.. cheers
