How to Replace All Your Household Bulbs with LEDs

We can all agree that the best bulb ever is the LED. With a lifespan and efficiency way outstripping any other bulb, there really is no arguing with it. But where do you start when you’re replacing your bulbs when it comes to your home?

Regular Bulbs

The bulbs that you use most often, found in table lamps and overhead lights are your regular bulbs. If you think that replacing your regular light bulbs with LEDs will result in cold, bright, white light, then you can think again, because this really isn’t the case. The iconic bulb might not look as good in LED form, but that doesn’t mean that its light quality is worse.

Take a look at these Philips LED Golf Ball lamps, for instance. Only using 4 watts in comparison to a regular 25 watt incandescent bulb, it’s extremely energy efficient (are you bored of hearing that yet?). The best bit though, is that you can choose the cap/base with us, so you can find an LED bulb to match exactly. The colour index of this bulb is one that’s close to sunlight, so your room will feel naturally light. This bulb is dimmable too, making it perfect for the living room or bedroom to create a cosier mood.

Spotlights

In some areas of your home, you need spotlights. Places like the kitchen will need task lighting to make sure that you can see what you’re doing. In these instances, LED lights can offer you bright light to ensure the best visibility. You can buy spotlights as mains lamps, or as single spotlights, so you can tailor it to your room.

Look for ones with a built in transformer, so you don’t have to buy a separate one and your bulbs won’t blow. Take a look at our collection of LED spotlights, which includes integrated and retrofit styles.

Downlights

Downlights are perfect for the bathroom, allowing you to direct task lighting on the bits you need most. LED downlights will mean that you don’t have to replace the bulbs as often any more – and we know how painful it can be – which means that your life is easier, as well as more efficient. Our specialty is downlights, so check out all the different options open to you.

Fluorescent Tubes

If your garage has a fluorescent light in it, and you’re wondering whether you can change these out for LED lights, then you’ll be delighted to know that you can even save money in this area. And while it may not be widely known, LEDs are indeed available as fluorescent tube replacements. They are quieter than fluorescents, they don’t need as much maintenance and you can get warmer colours too. Take a look at our options here.

So there you have it, all the options to make sure your entire house is as LED-friendly and energy efficient as possible.
