          Yeah so true. do u know what voltage of a linear led is comfortable for studying table providing adequate brightness n good for the eyes?
          you preparing your kids to burn tons of mid-night oil ar.....? :evil:

          Actually, I guess, no need too particular lah.. any LED (non-flickering) lamp shd be good enough.. the wattage is not really that important.

          if talking about table lamp, 10W can do the job, so does 20W.

          The eyes will adapt to environment. the pupil (not student) will open bigger if its dark, and so the pupil (student) can see better, and vice versa.

          If it is a dedicated table lamp, any size shd do lah.. Assuming you on the room lights as well. or ask the salesman to recommend..

            Please don’t talk about food preparation, utensils outside.

            See no evil…just eat if you have no choice.

            At home, we use good quality sauces and rice…outside cannot provide bcos prices have gone up and hawkers need to make profit to pay rent.

                Glory, with your baking and cooking electricity bills going up and up?

                For me every 27 days must order gas. Electricity bills always $340++ using LED. Think it’s my air con and fridge. Never ever to bring it down below $300.

                        Limlim, for your info all my fish die. So had to buy new batch of koi. Water pump won’t use so much electricity. I think.


                        Glory how much u pay one gas cylinder? I pay $34 and someone tell me now almost all around this price. Wa! Your bills quite high but that is because u cook and bake a lot but my hsehold only cook lunch for child and dinner. No baking for a long time. So believe its must be fridge and aircon. But only turn on 1 aircon leh. Ceiling fan use a lot of electricity?
