2 years ago

I'm going to install my own RGB light strip and diffuser for my kitchen units. What would be a decent type to use? Appreciate some tips before the units are installed. with regards to installing.

Hi We provide LED lamps in 2700K (very warm - yellow) , 3000K (warm white - yellow), 4000K (cool white - white will a hint of yellow), 5000K (soft daylight - very white), 6000K (daylight - more harsh white with hint of blue). Between different makes of LEDs - there will be variations too. What we have seen is that this is very much on personal preference and also how the light interacts with the colour of the units in your room. You should try some options if possible and see what you prefer. If you want to warm your room up go for warm white. If you want to have a sharper look go for cool whiite 4000K (we are seeing this is getting more popular), if you want seriously white then go for daylight (5-6000K). One thing we recommend against is using all in one LED fixture like the H2, because the LED market is moving fast, In 4 years time, if one fixture fails and this unit is not made anymore, it may be replaced with a non-matching fixture. With a LED GU10, you can just change the bulb without having to replace the fixture. Out Professional 7W DGP4 lamp has interchangeable lens (60 degree standard and 38 degrees optional) and really bright. Additionally, you should also check the under cabinet lighting. We have a new product X-LINK (www.x-link.co.uk) that is a modular linear light which is very bright, giving even diffused light across the across your total worktop without shadows between strips.

Would you paint this wall unit?
Q

Yes like most people have said would agree with the painting option. Choose a nice light colour and as already mentioned updating the door handles could give it a whole new modern look. At the end of the day the worst that could happen is that you don't like it and then you can get rid of it but at least you have tried to give it a new lease of life! I can see you have some nice glassware stored in there at the moment so if you are planning to keep this in there why not think about adding some cabinet lighting to make the most of this and have it as a feature in your room as there are a number of cabinet lights you can look at to achieve this effect? Something like this: http://www.thebulbco.com/led-interior-lighting/led-kitchen-lighting/endon-EL-10077-SET-kitchen-cabinet-strip-lights You can also get cabinets lights in a number of different colours too so you could match this up with the rest of your decor.

I don't have any nearby cupboards, and the kitchen backs on to the sitting room, so no hiding places there. I have talked to the electrician again and we will probably tuck the transformer at the very back of the shelf and stand something in front of it - not a very elegant solution but maybe the best we can come up with. Thanks for both comments.
