LED Light bulbs

[Darkstar101]

Around 6 months ago I replaced all my house Light bulbs for LED ones, costed around 280€.

 

Since then I started to save between 15€ to 20€ in electricity per month.

 

Some LED Light bulbs I bought use SMD 5050 LED's, others SMD 2835, and the major part look like normal Light bulbs.

 

I've choose 6000K of color for all Light bulbs, and I'm very happy for the white light color.

 

This is what the E27 230V SMD 5050 15W 6000K 1550lm Light bulbs look like:

 

This is what the E14 230V SMD 2835 12W 6000K 1150lm Light bulbs look like:

 

This is what the E27 230V LED 13W 6000K 1055lm Light bulbs look like:

 

This is what the E14 230V LED 4W 6000K 310lm Light bulbs look like:

 

And that's all folks, I recommend replacing normal Light bulbs for LED ones.

I wanted LED lights every since some energy guy came to our school and ranted shit about it. It's so bright yet it consumes less power.

my home are stuck with those tube florescent lights

 

is there anyway i could change them into LED lights?

 

i think they need to be down convert to lower voltage thou 230V to 12V maybe

They might be GU10, there's also LED Light bulbs for GU10.

I don't know what socket is that.

Maybe is time for replacing them all for a more common socket like GU10.

i dont even know what is called

 

and yes they are kinda old now

 

14 years 

 

they were in the rage at that time

 

but comparing LED which consume less watts and brighter

 

i wish i can change but the wiring are sealed

 

i will need to tear apart my whole false ceiling to change  :wacko:

Heh, over the past few years, dad & I have been replacing every light that is (was) incandescent or a compact fluro with LED bulbs. Some of them are yellow-white and others are blue-white, but for general use it doesn't really matter for us.

Sure, Australia uses Bayonet Sockets (and 240V 50Hz mains), and the LED bulbs we've been getting are E27 (27mm Edison Screw-type), but that's easily fixed by using E27->Bayonet converters (Bayonet male/E27 female) which are rather cheap and easy to find in a good hardware store.
