Errors when choosing

Trust in an unverified manufacturer.One-day firms, which today have one name and tomorrow another, do not particularly care about their own reputation, and therefore quite calmly sell low-quality products, luring buyers with a low price. It should be remembered that in order to reduce the cost, the manufacturer saves, first of all, on consumables, which will invariably affect the operational properties of the device. Some manufacturers, seeking to reduce the level of heat generation and increase light output, but at the same time save on parts partially or completely, ignore the need to smooth out current ripples. As a result, such products emit a flicker invisible to the naked eye, which, although not noticeable, is dangerous to the eye. And due to the lack of heat-removing elements, overheating and, accordingly, damage to the diodes are possible, especially in closed lampshades and shades.
Product Warranty

In LED, the quality of the diodes is important, on which the functionality, durability and operating conditions depend. And if one chip fails, the product will immediately stop working.

There are few manufacturers of high-quality LED lamps, and they all provide a guarantee for their products.

Features of installing sconces on the walls

• There is always an instruction with the lamp, which defines the basic requirements for fastening products. The manufacturer gives recommendations for reliable and safe installation.
• Very often, fasteners are also included, most often these are dowels. But as practice shows, it is better to purchase more reliable fasteners - their cost is low, but reliability increases several times.
• Before installation, it is worth putting the lamp against the wall in the place of the intended installation and turn it on, so you can see how the light will be distributed and you can find the ideal location.

Remember that skillfully selected equipment will not only increase the comfort of living, but also allow you to give your interior an original touch and make it unique.

Good lighting will decorate any interior and emphasize its dignity.

How to choose the right table lamp?

At first glance, it may seem that choosing this unit is not too difficult, but in reality this is not entirely true - it can be very problematic to choose a lamp that will optimally fit into the interior design and have acceptable functionality. In order for the desktop in the office or at home to be well lit, you should buy products that are of high quality. light with adjustable brightness.

Lamps come in a variety of form factors and sizes, so in terms of their appearance, everything is individual - products are selected so that they fit organically into the interior of the room. All models can be divided into three large groups - classic, decorative and multifunctional. The first type can work with a variety of light bulbs: incandescent, LED, energy-saving, halogen, and so on. They are the simplest source of light. Literally until recently, this product was encountered very often, but recently it has been gradually losing ground, giving way to multifunctional lamps. In another way, they are also called smart lamps.

The main difference between decorative products lies in their design.These lamps not only work for their intended purpose, but also emphasize the style of the interior. Additional functions and modes are usually not provided for in them.

Smart lights are models with LED modules. Often they are decorated in a modern spirit of minimalism. Their brightness and light temperature can be controlled if desired. Some of them are equipped with a built-in speaker, USB port and other additional features. They also have a very long service life - about 50 thousand hours. Even if you use the lamp daily for 5 hours, it will last about 25 years. Tempting, isn't it?

Before purchasing, you should definitely consider where exactly the table lamp will be located and for what purposes it is planned to be used. The overall dimensions of suitable products directly depend on the amount of free space allocated to this device.

Multifunctionality

Nowadays, things that perform several functions at once are especially valued. And the table lamp is no exception. As a basis for a night light, you can use a strong photo frame, where photos of the closest people will be placed. Such placement will save space on the bedside table, and close people will be what is called “at hand”. A table lamp is often combined with an alarm clock.

Various devices for gadgets placed on the same base as a table lamp will be very useful. Without phones, tablets, modern life is unthinkable, and it is very convenient when everything is nearby at any time of the day.

Sconce installation height depending on the functional purpose

To choose a place for arranging wall lamps, it is worthwhile to determine in advance for what purposes they will be used and what height is more suitable.

Above the bedside table

If there is one or two bedside tables in the bedroom near the bed, sconces are often hung over them to illuminate a small area without turning on the main light. The height of the location should be from 120 to 160 cm, depending on what area you need to cover. If this is the surface of a bedside table, it should be placed lower, and if you need to capture part of the bed, which is convenient when reading, then higher.

A small model with soft diffused light will do. If the wiring is hidden, it is laid in advance so as not to spoil the walls later.

Sconce above the bedside table with additional spotlights below.

Above the sofa and easy chairs

It is most convenient to illuminate the recreation area with the help of wall lamps if you place them correctly. The mounting height is usually between 140 and 150 cm, so that the light falls on the place where the person sits and provides a comfortable environment for reading or other activities.

Usually, models with lampshades are selected, which illuminate the space below them and scatter light around the room. Choose the style for the living room or the room where the sofa is. Often they use a convenient model with a rope that you need to pull.

Over the bed

Most often, a sconce over the bed is needed for reading. Therefore, the light should fall directly on the place where the person lies, so that there is no shadow. The placement height depends on the size of the headboard, if it is high, some put the lamp directly on it.It is not necessary to make the height of bedside lamps more than 160 cm, it is better to lower it lower so that the light does not disturb the one who lies nearby.

The height of the sconce above the bed is selected so that you can turn it on and off with your hand outstretched. Some put the switch on the wall near the headboard if the sconce is too high. The design can be any, the main thing is that it fits the situation.

For mirror lighting

In this case, the position of the sconce is selected under the mirror. The lamp should be located approximately at the level of the person's head in the upper third of the mirror. The closer it is, the better the space in front of the dressing table is illuminated.

Stylish lamps near the mirror.

A diffused light is better, as the directional light will blind and reflect from the mirror. The easiest way is to use models with a switch on the case or on a wire if you need to connect through an outlet.

It is not difficult to choose the height of the sconce if you use simple recommendations and prepare in advance for installation. Consider the purpose of the application, the choice of model and its characteristics depend on this. Consider in advance where it is best to place the switch for your convenience.
