Hi Jamez

Only around 50 lighting points

hope half of your 50 lighting points are wiring to energy saving bulbs - or the PUB will be the one laughing

very nice reno - warm. !!

Thanks MaCe for your valuable advice.

All PLC (around 30) lighting are energy saving lights. Only 8 halogen lights are not and these we will hardly on and only on occation when mood is required Not sure about those florescent long tube inside the cove light if energy saving or not.

Now thinking it's too warm the overall house (especially the living area). Want to change to more brighter place for kids playing & reading. Planning one cool-white & one daylight tube inside each PLC light...what do you all think? Does anyone done this and what are the adv & disadv? !!

Any places where to get cheap & good PLC energy saving white light tube and roughly how much each tube? Osram or GE?

Any impact (if change to the cool-white & daylight mixture) on my wall color which is more of creamy light yellow colour with big long black feature wall where the TV will be mounted.

I'm thinking now of more practical purpose (for the lighting) for kids instead of showcase house .

Thanks guys

USE only philips or osram.

go take a look at the flourescent tubes - are they normal ones? 1 inch diameter = T8, 16mm = T5

if it's those slim T5 tubes then no worries lor - they are VERY energy saving.

i bought my t5 4feet tubes at $4, t5 2 feet at $3.

I still in the midst of coverting all my T8 to T5 , left 2 more to go.

I will post the pics in my blog, come take a look at the bulbs.

Thanks MaCe for the info & posting on your blog

Thx. The protective fllor sheets is a new placement after the cleanup (1st time) of the place. The workers know i like to be neat & careful

57!

but good lah...i guess being a photographer urself u tend to take lighting seriously cos u know where put light will look good.

if i can afford i also wan many many lights...

It never occurs to me until you mentioned it...

Main reason was to avoid standing lights and table lamps so to have a neat place....and when you have false ceiling then must have more lighting points.

ahhh...yes. Standing lamps and lights will break the neat lines of watever design if not chosen properly...if everything is built in then itz ALOT more neat..no exposed wires here and there... i also dun like to see wiring one...must be as neat as possible
