Im not, Im comparing the Lumens you get from the new LED bulbs I have put into the current fitting recently, with the lumens you get from a new 3W bulb.
Also the current fitting is an exposed candle bulb fitting, with the new being a frosted enclosure fitting, so if anything I'll need more...
I get that 3W LED is the EQUIVALENT of 28W Hallogen, what Im getting as is we have a 5 or 6W 5-bulb fitting currently and want a new fitting that puts out the same amount of light as that, and I dont understand why unless there is some custom circuitry inside, you cant put 5x5-6W LEDs in a...
Its a G9 if that helps, and this is the link to the item if you can shed any light, pun intended https://www.villageathome.co.uk/buy/iris-5-light-ceiling-fitting-antique-brass_260.htm
I found a ceiling light that I really like. Reading the small print it says Max Wattage 28W Halogen, 3W LED.
My question is, why would the max wattage be lower for LEDs than Halogen? I wouldnt get enough brightness from 3W bulbs, based on the current fitting, I would want 5-6W. Intuitively...
The switch was my second thought, however I dont get how this impacts two other lights on independent switches, while not impacting every light on the circuit.
Got a weird fault I am trying to diagnose, and its twisting my brain...
The living room light flashed on switch-on, then wont come on. OK a bulb probably blew, check the Lighting fuse on the RCD, nope (reset it anyway just in case), new bulbs dont work, definitely not the bulbs...
Two other...
