It will flicker. It is basically just fluorescent bulb.

totally not related to LED.

Okay… a lot of shops like to use the term "energy saving" lamp/bulb.


Basically, all LED, CFL, FL are "energy saving". so… don’t be confused.

using the term "energy saving" doesn’t mean it is not FL, or something very new. maybe just marketing gimmick.

maybe there is some improvement in design etc… but it is still FL technology (I lazy to spell florescent lamp).

Bulb that are Not energy saving is tungsten, halogen… or… simply incandescent bulbs.

how to save electricity when it is so hot and humid of late?

every night while hanging laundry on bamboo, i feel as though i am swimming even with fans turned on. kids are also taking more showers to cool down.

one good way to save electricity at home is to hit the malls and stay there till 7pm.

There MUST be a hotpot present somewhere in this thread and it may not be buds :evil:

I believe for domestic use, the 1st step is to stay away from halogen (downlight) and incandescent lightings if really wanna save energy.

yes yes yes yes......

Not only less efficient in illumination, it produces a gigantic amount of heat that will send your aircon bills over the roof..

:faint: even my bathrooms are fitted with this halogen, 4 units above the sink and 3 more units above the bathtubs :faint:

I googled and found this Green Max LED, which I can order online... Is Green Max's LED good? Anyone tried before, please share.... TIA.

Maybe you can contact them and ask them to re-fit the lightings for your whole house at a discount....and use it as a case study on the savings.
