Efficient light bulbs significantly reduce your electricity bill.
But they must be adapted to each room to be effective.
Switch to low energy bulbs is not obvious, because their powers are not the same.
Depending on the type of room they light up in the house , you have to choose your bulbs carefully before buying them.
To know the power that it is advisable to use for each room of the house , I use the following match:
Contents
Classic Bulb / Low Consumption Bulb
Enter :60-75W / 9-25W
Stay , reading:100 to 200 W / 9 to 25 W
Stay , meal:60 to 150 W / 9 to 25 W
Stay , TV:40 W / 5 to 9 W
Office , general:40 to 100 W / 7 to 25 W
Office , working:75 to 100 W / 11 to 25 W
Bedroom , bedside:40 to 100 W / 7 to 25 W
Bedroom , gaming:40-100W / 9-25W
Kitchen :75 to 150W / 7 to 25W
Room bathroom :40 to 75W / 7 to 18W
Toilets :40-60W / 9-15W
There you go, you will make real savings with low-consumption light bulbs :-)
With these indications, you will know what intensity must be suitable for every room in the house.
It is useless to strongly light a corridor for example, whereas it is essential in the dining room.
By choosing the right light intensity, you save a lot of savings .
By using this correspondence table, I save electricity by using light bulbs that are really suited to my needs.
No more bulbs that light up too much, and above all that consume too much for nothing. A good way to become thrifty at home.
You should also know that low consumption light bulbs take time to light up a room.
It may therefore be necessary to favor conventional bulbs for passage rooms , of the entrance type to be able to benefit from the best lighting instantly.
This avoids leaving the light on too long to be sure of seeing clearly.
