LED chandelier lamps

Modern trends in the development of technical equipment and design of premises indicate that the future will belong to LED chandeliers. The familiar image of chandeliers is changing, as is the principle of their lighting. LED lamps have significantly changed the speed and direction of further development of interior design. In addition, such lamps have striking differences in terms of life and energy consumption.

Initially, a chandelier, in our understanding, is a ceiling structure into which lamps of varying power levels are embedded. Later, with the advent of improved lamps, it became possible to choose the shade and even the color of the lighting. Now the ceiling chandelier is something completely unlimited in its possibilities.

LEDs have a fundamentally new way of generating energy, they have easily taken root in our homes, instead of quickly burning out incandescent bulbs. The new invention became possible when the first discoveries of new semiconductor materials were recorded in the scientific world. In 1996, the first series of blue light-emitting diodes was produced in Japan, however, they were only indicator lamps. It took several more years to create lamps suitable for the required lighting fixtures.

It was not difficult to introduce new technologies into the rapidly developing world. The clear advantages in operation, ease of installation and long service life have played a positive role, and now in the modern world few people are surprised by rainbow colors or the ability to wirelessly control.

LED chandelier lamps are a welcome breakthrough in technology and design. It is this method of lighting that has made it possible to reduce the thermal load and "hide" the lighting device directly into the ceiling structure.

With the question of installing lamps in an ordinary chandelier of an average apartment, everything is clear. The main thing is to choose the right base, the color of the radiation and its power. There is little difference with a conventional incandescent or energy-saving lamp. However, there are chandeliers such as point or crystal.

In spotlights, with lamps mounted in the ceiling or furniture, the issue of replacing burned-out lamps is quite difficult and requires special knowledge. If you are served by a crystal chandelier and you would like to replace the lamps in it with LED lamps, it is worth noting a few nuances:

• The built-in light bulb should be small, it should not exceed the size of the crystal shade. This will greatly reduce its exterior qualities.
• Choose only a transparent outer shell. A matte or colored finish will exclude the play of color in the crystal and reduce its attractiveness.
• The light color of such a bulb can only be white. All other colors, for obvious reasons, are not used in chandeliers of this type.

In any case, replacing the emitter in this type of chandelier is laborious and requires specific skills. Small inaccuracies in the installation, incorrect power or poor quality can lead to the device refusing to perform its direct functions. And this is not taking into account the somewhat jeweler's way of replacing small parts.

The fragility of incandescent lamps is known to everyone, energy-saving lamps last longer and are much more economical, however, they are far from LED-lamps. Reliable companies give a warranty period for their products from 3-5 years, and the service life of such lamps exceeds 15 years.

LED emitters do not require special knowledge when replacing them, however, there are cases in which the installed lamp does not light up after installation or glows after switching off. In such cases, first of all, it is advised to check the quality of the connection. Unscrew the device and then insert it again in accordance with the instructions and observing all safety measures.

If after the performed procedure the emitter does not light up, it is recommended to contact the seller for clarification.

In this case, it is better to contact a professional electrician of a specialized company, since it may not be safe to change the wiring yourself or look for a problem in electrical appliances.

Sometimes LED lamps flicker when glowing in a rhythm that is noticeable to the human eye. This is not only annoying, but also extremely unhealthy for the eyes. Users note that this phenomenon is quite typical for this type of light emitters. In addition, it is quite difficult to mark it when buying, since it is associated with the design features of the electrical network in your house and with the total voltage in this network at the output.

The lack of load also negates the ability to remotely control such lamps. In this case, some manufacturers suggest changing the power supplies that are built into this type of chandelier.

Interestingly, with the advent of light-emitting diodes in matters of room lighting, endless possibilities in their application have emerged. The characteristic qualities inherent in this type of light emitters, such as the ability to reduce the size to almost a drop, ergonomics, lack of heat transfer, high light quality indicators, ease of installation, a variety of colors - all this makes ice bulbs a universal tool in the embodiment of truly amazing and incredible ideas. designers.

Glowing floors, mosaics of multi-colored lamps, illuminated decorative elements, lamps built into the ceiling, real twinkling stars in the bedroom - all this has already been brought to life and does not surprise anyone in modern reality. But is it not surprising that the light source can be not only of any size, but also of any shape? From a huge glowing ball to a small flickering candle.

Ceiling lamps, in which the bulbs are held on peculiar horns or strings, give a truly unearthly feeling. Often the horns in such lamps are mobile and flexible, they can take any shape, which reveals the boundaries of the designer's imagination to the point of incredible. Weightless, cloudy, incredible shapes - such lamps already look extraterrestrial. The power of the emitters in such designs is low, they give the minimum illumination, which is more likely to be acceptable for the background, however, this is often what is required from this type of lighting fixture.

The horns upward will shine dark enough, since the main stream of light will go to the ceiling plane, while the horns downward or to the sides will give diffused lighting. The hardest part about these chandeliers is changing the bulbs. Difficulties can arise no less than in crystal models.

The overwhelming majority of users of electric lighting devices are inclined to believe that the LED type of lighting is the most economical. The price-quality ratio is the most optimal in this variant, even if the cheapest model of the emitter was chosen. Even simple models last a long time, consume little and are resistant to voltage drops. The only thing that can distinguish them from more expensive options is their appearance. The market offers to choose the shape, color, turbidity of the outer coating, internal components - all this is accordingly reflected in the price.

Accordingly, chandeliers with built-in LED emitters are in demand, their lineup continues to change and develop, and prices are steadily creeping downward. With the increase in the volume of production of such goods and the intensification of competition, lighting fixtures of this type, even of a high-quality class, are becoming more and more affordable for ordinary people.
