With the direct brightness of LED lamps, you can create a comfortable environment in every room of your house. Did you know this? The color temperature determines whether light looks warm or cool.

Back to the seventies

Back to the seventies The retro living style Back to the seventies! The retro style is a way of decorating that is completely hot again. A retro interior knows how to combine simplicity with cheerful colors. A retro interior, for example, is not too much of a cat pass but not too bald: a golden mean. For inspiration, we mainly look at the 50s, 60s, and 70s. Characteristic of these times are the colors, stripes, circles, and flowers that have been used frequently. The right colors When we talk about colors, warm colors such as yellow, orange and brown are often popular. These colors give the interior a warm and nostalgic look. For the walls, a cheerful, perhaps psychedelic motif is often chosen. Of course, not everyone sees the popping with colors at a time when we are mainly looking for peace. It is, therefore, a style that can be very busy. Not your taste? Pastel colors such as powder pink and mint green are also a nice addition. Are you afraid that your interior will be too b...

Halogen vs. LED

Halogen vs. LED Recently you hear a lot about LED. It would be more energy efficient, last longer, but have uncomfortable white light and be much more expensive. This brought me to the question of what really is the difference between Halogen and LED lights . I figured it out for you. A halogen lamp is really just an old incandescent lamp, but the halogen lamp is filled with bromine or iodine gas. This gas ensures that the filament becomes hotter than with an ordinary incandescent lamp so that a larger part of the energy is converted into light and has a longer lifespan than an ordinary incandescent lamp. The efficiency of a halogen lamp is therefore about 15 to 20% higher than the efficiency of an incandescent lamp. A LED lamp has no filament, but 'light-emitting diodes or LED. A LED is an electronic semiconductor component that emits light when an electric current flows through it in the forward direction. The difference in return is huge. With around 15% of the energy, an ...

What is the lumen

What is the lumen? "60 watts above the dining table, 25 in the table lamp and 100 in the basement." When most lamps were still incandescent, you expressed the amount of light in watts. Now that normal light bulbs are no longer sold, 'watts' have to be put back in its loft: it is and remains an expression of electrical power, not light. We have 'lumen' for that. With lumen the luminous intensity is expressed per watt, the more lumen you have, the higher the wattage and vice versa. Only with lumen can you properly compare the different lamps - halogen lamp, energy saving lamp, LED lamps . You can read from the table below how many lumens a new lamp should have if you want to replace a particular bulb. Light bulb wattage                    Light output 15 watts                                         100 to 150 lm 25 watts   ...
