My kitchen is in the spotlights

Advantages: brilliant lights
Disadvantages: ?

...and so we went to john Lewis in High Wycombe. I bought them from John Lewis because I like the things they sell and I know I will have no problem with their standard of workmanship on goods and should I have a problem or wish to return the goods I will be able to do so. John Lewis has a fair choice of lights. My kitchen is quite large divided into two by an island of cupboards making it a work area and a dining area this works well. We decided ...
...lights can be bought from john Lewis or I saw some in B&Q for £5.99 for a pack of 4 so I expect these bulbs are available in most electrical shops I have some of these light bulbs pointed at my work surface to help illuminate the area when I am mixing a cake or preparing supper, they give a good light so I can see what I am doing. How easy were they to fit I hear you ask? Well We did not fit them ourselves we had an electrician who was doing other ...

Review of John Lewis Arch white spotlights

Light your way to Tangier

Advantages: Looks expensive
Disadvantages: Self assembly, paint peels off shades.

...write some new reviews. Next :~ The light fitting is from Next, now i would not normally shop at Next as every time you wear something you bump into someone wearing the same thing. But i have to admit they do stock some nice home furnishing. My wife spotted the Tangier light and thought it would go with the style of the room she wanted. Tangier light fitting :~ These are not brass but painted to look like brass. All the items are solid metal ...
...that can be bent, they are only partly shaped and you need to squeeze them together while assembling for them to fit. Price :~ You can buy two Tangier light fittings one 3 bulb and the other 5 bulb, the wife not happy with just the one decided to get both one for the lounge the other for the dining room. The 5 bulb costs £50 and the 3 bulb £35, for that price i expected an electrician to come round and fit them and when i asked the cashier she ...

Review of Next Tangier light fitting

Illuminating the Night with Light in Style

Advantages: Powerful, lightweight, highly practical, stylish and excellent value for money.
Disadvantages: A bit too strong. Struggles with thicker books.

...go – it wasn’t as if I was searching for something perfect – I just wanted a serviceable book light to allow me to read at night when my wife preferred to go to sleep. However, my quest for a reliable book light stretches back three Christmases and two birthdays and I have a pile of rejects and failures that would justify a car boot sale table all by themselves. So it was with a mixture of excitement and trepidation that I took this little gadget ...
...company called That Company Called IF (http://www.thatcompanycalledif.com) founded in 1996 and based in North Yorkshire. The product comes in a trim, form fitted plastic box and is available in various colours (Purple, Pink, White, Orange, Green, Grey and Blue). The only instructions you need are printed on the box, but the product is intuitive to use. I plumped for the orange version. The housing is in hard plastic, with a matte finish and is hinged ...

Review of If The Really Tiny Book Light

And there was Light !

Advantages: Light on tap.
Disadvantages: Nothing major.

JML seem to have been hitting the headlines lately with the Ped egg, well I have never tried a Ped Egg but I can vouch for the JML Stick up bulb. We have a large store in a neighbouring town called `Home Bargains` and in that store you can find all sorts of gadgets and gimmicks, some far better than others but at least it is fun trying them all out. We went in to buy a small step stool and came out with a stick up light bulb, so that wasn't bad ...
...looking for ! The JML stick up light bulb is a simple idea that does work well, it comes in two parts. There is a horseshoe shaped plate that has a large sticky pad attached to the back of it and that part acts as the holder for the light bulb. The sticky pad is quite selective and you will find that it will only stick to what it wants to, so after trying it in many different positions only to find that is just `slid` off The Other Half managed ...

Review of JML StickUp Bulb

GU10 CFL is cost effective but takes to warm up

Advantages: Cost effective
Disadvantages: Short warm up delay

When I think about how much wattage I am using to light my flat and how often I forget to turn lights off I am shocked. This bulb is equivalent to a 50W incandescent bulb but saves 78% of the energy. These bulbs operate on 230V so avoiding the need and the possible wear of low quality 12V transformers. There are a couple of versions the cool (4000K) & warm white (3000K), the cool white might work in sterile conditions like kitchens and displays but ...
...living rooms and bed rooms. The bulb produces usable light instantly but as with most CFLs it takes about 60 seconds to fully warm up and produce the maximum light output. Because of the energy usage when these warm up they are not ideal for short use applications but better used for long periods of continuous use. These bulbs are designed to have a useful life a lot longer than an incandescent bulb and so far I haven't used one to the end of its ...
