What is a fool or a Dimmable LED bulb? The term dimmable (variable or dimmable) means a bulb that supports the variation of light intensity. This means that these dimmable bulbs can be installed on dimmers (LED compatible). They are also sometimes delivered with remotes to change the light intensity. Why install Dimmable lighting? Installing one or more dimmable bulbs allows varying the luminous intensity of your installation. This function is very important in living rooms such as living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms. For example, it is common to lower the intensity of light at the end of the day to create a soft and soothing light. For example, we have dimmable recessed spotlights that are widely used in living rooms and lounges. With a good quality dimmer, lowering the intensity of its lighting can also reduce power consumption and thus reduce its energy bill. Attention, the standard drives allow a variation of 50W to 500W approximately ... For an LED it tak...

LED technology What does the term LED mean? LED is the acronym for Lighting Emitting Diodes, in French the term LED for Electro-Luminescent Diode is sometimes used. LED operation An LED is a semiconductor that produces light (electroluminescence) when a low-voltage direct current passes through it. LEDs are single-color (monochromatic) Each LED emits a highly monochromatic light spectrum with a high purity of color. The red, green and blue LEDs are the most popular since they then make it possible to obtain all the other colors. To obtain white light, we add all of these three primary colors. Light the intensity or luminous flux The amount of light produced by an LED is globally proportional to the intensity and the voltage at which it is powered. Generally LEDs are designed to operate around 20mA. Lifetime LEDs are semiconductors that are particularly reliable and time-resistant components. Thus, the service life is at least 20,000 hours. After 20 00...

Realize the lighting of a kitchen The kitchen is one of the most important rooms in the house, not only used for cooking and eating it is also a place of conviviality and exchange. To choose the lighting of a kitchen, it is necessary to take into account all the activities that will take place and find the right balance between these two simple rules: ·          avoid the complexity linked to a number of bright spots too important ·          do not settle for a single point of light for the whole piece that would penalize the overall rendering The idea is to install a bright spot for 1 to 3m². It is important to mix the different style of lighting (general lighting, functional lighting and decorative lighting) to obtain a final result is both elegant and practical. Think about the basic lighting of the room: The basic or functional lighting is intended to provide the necessary brightne...

Power, brightness and lighting of an LED The lighting power of an LED is often referred to as Watt, Lumen or Lux. What do these terms really mean and what is the difference between each? The Watt The Watt is a measure of the power consumed by the lamp. Historically it was also a measure of the light output of the lamp (e.g. 75W incandescent bulb). Now, modern bulbs are much more efficient, which means that the power consumed is no longer a good way to know the luminous flux produced by the bulb. Indeed, a 100W incandescent bulb, low consumption of 25W and a 15W LED bulb produces the same light while having very different electrical consumptions. The lumen The lumen measures the total amount of light emitted by a light source. It is strictly speaking a measure of the "quantity of light", the luminous flux of the lamp. The higher the number of lumens, the brighter the bulb illuminates. Attention, the light of 500 lumens with an angle of diffusion of 6...
