Contractor told me that the lights are up.

Bedroom 1 and 2 - the lights can change its colour from warm white to cool white using the controller provided. even the brightness can be adjusted.

Just wondering what will happen when the controller spoil.. haha..

How much did you pay for you bedroom ceiling lights? And where did you get them from? I like the simple design of your light and it can change from warm white to cool white sounds interesting. Wondering would that be a problem changing the controller? Thanks.

Hi Vuzu, i got the lights from Tmall.

http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=24495456983&spm=a1z09.2.9.134.naYXoE&_u=c1umpormc433

there are 3 kinds for u to choose from.

1. only 1 colour tone

2. can switch btw warm white, daylight and cool white

3. you can adjust ur own colour - all the way from warmest to coolest

i got the third type. it is selling at CNY299 but there is a CNY100 discount for every 1 item you buy.

so its CNY199. there a few more discount voucher if u hit a certain amount.

i also got a smaller one for my service yard.

If the controller spoils, it will be perm stuck the brightness/colour that u last select i guess. hahaha

I assume the led itself is special in order for the led to changes it color? So if the led source faulty, and u change to a generic led, the color changing function will also not work anymore?

I'll try to take a better photo...

No problem. In fact, i also bought some led stripes but it's DOA. Sigh.. Money wasted...

I would think your assumption is right..
