CharisOng 15 Report post Posted May 20, 2014 Always great when the lights are up and running Its like another milestone of accomplishment for Reno ...Yup agreed! Finally there's light when we visit after work. If not always have to use handphone flashlight..The lights you buy from taobao? I bought 3 but 2 are broken Yes most of them are bought from taobao. I only bought led strip & t5 from singapore. The ceiling lights are all from taobao. Hmm I have 2 downlights. The one on the left starts to flicker ytd night & it lags when switch on. After much discussion with my hubby, we are going to purchase 2 downlights from sg and get it replaced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brian Huang 4 Report post Posted May 20, 2014 What happens if your lightings have problem? Able to send back and ask for replacement? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CharisOng 15 Report post Posted May 20, 2014 not economical to send back for replacement bah. Shipping cost to and back, you can order another one liao. I didnt think so much. To me, if spoil den buy replacement from sg. Cuz some lightings are really expensive in sg. Like the foyer light & mbr entrance light. My id say sg selling around 200-400 sgd. My foyer light only 6sgd exclude shipping & the mbr entrance light only 33 sgd. So if spoil, den decide bah. haha.. those lightings that always use one, like cove lighting t5s i buy from sg.

CharisOng 15 Report post Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) Status Update: Day 29 (26 May 2014)Carpentry starts today! My ID send me 3 pics of the work-in-progress. They start work around noon or after noon.. Met my ID after work today to confirm the position of the bathroom accessories for the installation schedule this friday. He will oversee the installation so I no need take leave. Window & Grill installation also this friday. My FIL most likely will be dropping to help us oversee the installation. Soooooo excited to see the cabinets are almost done. I didnt take the kitchen cabinets cuz there's still no lights in my kitchen. And paranorma mode dont have flash. Lighting likely be installed fully by thursday.. Here are 3 more pictures.
