Bro please stay away from those led recessed light especially those with different colours. You need to buy gu10 with the led bulbs, they last way longer than those ones you’ve got. The more you change the colours the less the lifespan
Okay bro, Thanks so much. 🙏
Please what's gu 10 light?
It’s the same as the spot light but think it has longer lifespan than the normal spotlight we all know. It’s design is slightly unique.
@@leosismenz347 GU10 is a type of bulb. It's the same principle of domestic households bulb but it goes inside the spotlight frame. Mostly electricians will opt for the cobs because it makes their work easier, some cobs even comes with embedded drivers so they will not have to do much wiring. Cob spotlights have a lifespan of at least 3 years. So you can imagine changing all your spotlights at the same time after 3 years😅. With an empty case, you will just have to fit a new GU10 bulb. Hope it helps.
True. It is easy to replace gu10 bulbs too
The way u Dey mix the English and “Twinglish” dey give me joy 😂😂
😂😂😂😂. Thanks
Bro it is toooooo cheap, 60ghc spotlight is really cheap. Take your time and buy an expensive brand little by little until you get the full set. Over here in America you could buy a single spot like as much as $200 to $25 although there are some cheaper options.
Okay bro. Thanks for that🙏
Thanks for sharing Bro. Cob spotlights comes as Osram, Epistara or Bridgelux which is the cheapest. Regardless of the chip, cob spotlights are not serviceable compared to the GU10. With GU10, you will only have to change the bulb if it burns. Imagine going around looking for the exact sizes of the frame for the burnt cob spotlights due to the cutouts 😂😂😂. Although I have about 100pcs of the cobs, I will not be using it and I'm buying GU10 frames instead.😊
That’s Nice bro.
And if you don’t get the same size too is a problem. Because they already cut the size in the POP and u can’t replace with any size.. that’s a big job. I will get the GU10 too.
@@ghfame1tv it's good that ppl like you are bringing these issues up. It's helping lots of ppl. 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Good choice of lighting fixture. Many people want flashy stuff and that will keep taking money out of their pockets.
very informative snr. thanks alot
Welcome
Good information. 👍
I don't do those cheap brandless LED'S, my go to Lighting/LED fixtures brand is Philips.
LED lights will add extra unwanted heat. The lights on top of cooking with little ventilation will be unbearable. Fan running nonstop. Beware..
Yeah Led lights produce heat. I won’t be using fan at the kitchen because my kitchen does not generate heat at all because of the P.O.P Ceiling.. So we will leave the fan aspect for the kitchen unless maybe later we decided to do it or something.. Thanks
@@ghfame1tv Didn't know P.O.P. ceiling reduces heat. Interesting. Thought it was simply a decorative idea for ambient lighting. I'll try the round vent external turbine restaurant fan!
@pellpell6920 yeah, one benefit you get from POP is heat reduction. It’s really helpful..
What brand of the spot light do you buy
The brand Name is “Sindex” - 8 Watts
That’s a lot of Chinese light. U guys like to over do. The light doesn’t have a problem but they mixed the colors between warm and cold
Is it the bulb or the brand or the switch that is bad ?
Should i import these kind of lights ?
Thank you
It’s the bulb & the brand, but mostly it’s the bulb cus spot light doesn’t really have a good life span. They easily get spoiled over time due to change in the color switch. People will still buy if you import cus no matter how fast it gets spoiled we still need to buy replacement. But one guy who commented on this video said we should use the gu10 bulb so you can also go for that.
@@ghfame1tvgood to know bcos I will start buying my lights when I arrive in June.
Thanks
@@ghfame1tvBro you can't fit a GU10 bulb into a case which is meant to carry a cob chip. There's a special case or frame to carry the bulb. It's the frame plus the bulb holder. Then you can get or buy your own bulbs separately.
@everymanisyourteacher9951 yeah you’re right, i read about it online, i can see it’s different on it own.
Can i have your electrician
Ur house is in a good shape,
Please how much did you pay for ur switch’s and where did you bought it? Thanks
