BunBun 5 Report post Posted August 6, 2008 Eh babytan, whats "mau' yong? my chinese is very bad kekeke aiya not very poor thing la, he still yaya papaya...tonight post the picture of his "mau" yong... Cyn, how come your place needs 43 lighting points? You might want to consider reducing it cos for a start, you be paying for replacement bulbs every then and now to replace spoilt bulbs. Its one of the disadvantages to begin with LBox and Cove lightings. My family home has this problem. One light will go out after a while and when it gets replaced, another light goes out again. Its an endless cycle buying replacement bulbs plus Lbox & cove light areas accumulate alot of dusts very easily. Not fantastic for people with sensitive noses. Im very curious where your light positions will be located. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
