millienium_bear 0 Report post Posted September 2, 2015 need some advise..thinking of replacing all the "tradition" downlight (those with CLF lights) with LED downlight..receiving a few quotes from different lights shops, and nearly $800 including installation cost ($12 per light x 25)..each LED downlight piece cost roughly $16-$20..is it wise to replace all? will have problem after installing LED lights?have been using traditional lights for 7 years++.. not sure if it will be cost-saving in long run when replacing...

Ray Tay Hong Choon 4 Report post Posted September 4, 2015 Just work out the power consumption based on your usage pattern and see how long it takes to recover your $800 investment. The lifespan should be about the same between a CFL and a low end LED. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spike 9 Report post Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) I need to replace fluorescent tubes every few months in my parents' house. In comparison, LED should last several years. For 25 LED downlights, the cost should be around $600 inclusive of installation, based on $14 per LED downlight plus $10 for installation that I got from Yafen LED Lights for my home. I have not bought from her yet because my renovation has not started but from my Google search, she is highly recommended because her lights are very cheap and very good.
