xherion 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2009 congrats for the handover, fondue! and you too for the keys, XBB! thinking of putting LED lights too on kitchen cabinet, is it very expensive? should be just a thin strip right? i saw one in IKEA, LED thin strips, dunno whether it's bright enough or not.

When installing LED, you need to be aware of the transformer that comes with it. Some transformer can be bulky and need the ID/joiner to work with you as how to hide it. Otherwise, it can be an eye sore. Yes, it is usually just a thin strip. It can be bright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

XiaoBinBin 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2009 I think those led lights bought from sim lim tower by oogachaga is cheaper than those in IKEA. Have to check the price difference, length and how power is supplied. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aubrey 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2009 i think it's better to control a row of lights served the particular area with one switch. for living room downlights, we have 3 switches - one at foyer for 3 downlights, one **** room for 3 downlights, and one at dining area for 3 downlights. in my passageway (near to the far end of the living room) to the bedrooms, we did a 2 way switch to control foyer, living room, and dining area lights. okay, i think that will be what i want as well. our switches were separated from the last rewiring. it used to be 4 switches at the kitchen doorway for 2 kitchen light, 1 bath & 1 WC. now bath and WC relocated to the wall nearest to bath. so can add it to the point where the kitchen lights are. arent 2 way switches expensive?? and the Ikea LED light, are those any good? saw it in practically all displays in ikea where there is kitchen cabinet. hmm..

XiaoBinBin 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2009 Was googling on T5 lights and found it to be popular for aquarium. Hmmm T5 vs LED...which is more energy efficient? I read T5 does not radiate heat. From Oochaga's t-blog, I realised the LED light has a special effect on stainless steel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
