Anyone moved to LED Lighting?

And increased the number of corrective lenses by 150%

I had a few of these LED PAR30 bulbs in my hand a week ago. The prices were outrageous and the lumen output was so pathetic I would have to install triple the fixtures to be able to watch TV with them on. IIRC the largest was 11 Watts and put out about 530 lumens??? Compare this to a 23 Watt CFL (Not PAR30) putting out 1200 lumens.

11 watts gives 530 lumens versus 23 watts gives 1200? Do the math, dopey. Sounds like DOUBLE the fixtures would give you 22 watts and 1060 lumens with the particular LED's you are whining about.

Just how do your extraordinary skills with higher mathematics show that double the fixtures provide enough light if he thinks he needs a minimum of 1200 lumens?

I'm not interested in the job. Mostly because if you offer me $150, your deficient math skills will result in a check for $100. You will of course, insist that it is really $150.

Try again when you are able to state your challenge accurately and fairly. You haven't even come close with this feeble attempt.

Isn't it time for the troll to change his nick again?

You been using this one for a long...long time now. Almost.... 21 posts? Some kind of record for you, no?

BTW: Your interlaced posting mixed in with other styles makes you almost unintelligeible. That and your amazing math skills makes you almost a bozo bin candidate.

Stick to the oar myth, it seems more plausible, in this group, anyway.

It was actually a trick sentence without the word "minimum" found anywhere.

When you are a cheap troll, you need to bend the context and meaning of sentences a lot to make your argument seem valid. Sometimes people reach down into the facts, for a troll, and come up empty handed and have to, just plain, make up shit.

Wow, you really are math challenged. I've been using this nick for several years and thousands of posts.

So, now you are stalking me?

I see that Home Depot in Canada is now handling some LED bulbs with a title of nightlights or something similar. They appear in the shape of the usual medium base incandescent shape and have a white translucent dome over the top if them. The ratings are so poor they could only be used a nightlights.

$30 ea.

7 Watts 155 lumens.

While there may be useful places for these nightlights, they don't look that useful for me. Their efficiencies are barely as good as many incandescent technologies at 155/7 = 22.14 lumens/Watt.

I am still looking for a decent PAR30LN LED bulb that can be used over my sink with an X-10 switch module (yeah ..it dims) 1000-1500 lumens would be a good brightness.

Your IQ?

You really are clueless

You don't know what you are asking for. Try one of these and you'll find it is quite bright enough for that purpose:

...or, continue to stumble around in the dark, whining.

Not good in snowy areas. If snow somehow ends up covering the lights (heavy sticky snow being blown sideway by heavy wind, for example), LEDs don't emit enough heat to melt it down.

Snow is an issue over the sink?

Thanx for the link but, it becomes very obvious that decent lighting is not a requirement for you, as you post.

Perhaps you could turn up the brightness on your LED backlit monitor, or put on your spectacles and read the posts before posting unrelated links. Even if the outdoor bulb did fit the fixture above my sink the somewhere between

390 and 450 lumens at somewhere between 2600K to 8000K colour temp. and low lux output would not fit the bill. I like to see what I am doing.

Let's face it. LED area lighting has not become a reality for humans, yet. ESL technology may be the next answer for a few decades.

You posted links to an outside rated bulb unit. Yup, reading details is really hard.

Especially with interlaced and/or bottom posting.

You really are a very dim bulb. Extremely dim.

TOP posting is what screws up a thread's continuity. that's why -UseNET Convention- is bottom posting. People naturally read left to right,top to bottom.
