Bad Ideas - Lighting
Things to Avoid Doing!
500w halogen lights
Unless you have a football field to light up
Dimmed PIR lights
A gross waste of energy and money
Bare fluorescent lights with random tube
Lights high up out of reach over stairs
A perfect recipe for serious injury
Halogen uplighters
A recipe for house fires. Often excessively power hungry too.
Plaster half-bowl uplighters
The only uplighter that manages to have none of the usual advantages of uplighting, and makes walls look terrible to boot.
