LED IN THE BEDROOM

In the previous sections, our LED experts explained the basic principles for lighting. We have also given tips regarding lighting for the living room and bathroom. In this part, we will provide you with useful tips for choosing the right bedroom lighting.

BEDROOM LIGHTING

With lighting for the bedroom, you have to pay attention to the different purpose that a bedroom has, there is of course not only sleeping. In this room you choose your clothes in the wardrobe and sometimes you read a book from the bed, for this the correct forms of lighting are necessary:

Basic lighting:  This is the main lighting in the bedroom and must be able to provide the entire room with bright light, which is, therefore, best to attach to the ceiling. It is desirable to install a dimmer here so that a more relaxed atmosphere can be created. Also make sure that there is an on / off switch at the bedside, this for ease of use.

Targeted lighting:  This form of lighting also includes reading lighting, the light has a clear purpose. In addition, placing spotlights near the wardrobe can be a good outcome, so direct light shines into the wardrobe without disturbing too much shade.

CHOOSE A READING LAMP

When choosing a reading lamp, a number of things must be taken into account. Only the basic lighting, in this case on the ceiling, is not suitable as reading lighting. The basic lighting gives too bright light and with the use of a dimmer it causes too much shade, so there is not enough rest. There are many beautiful and special luminaires for next to the bed, the ideal location for reading lighting, which can also have their disadvantages:

Lampshade:  Fixtures with a decorated shade provide too much shadowing, which can cause unrest in the shadow play, which can have an adverse effect on a good night's sleep. In addition, it makes reading more difficult and the preference is for an even cap.

Hinge lamps:  Luminaires that can be attached to a headboard provide a focused light beam, this is ideal as targeted lighting and therefore also as a reading lamp. However, the disadvantage is that they have an industrial appearance and are often associated with an office workplace.

Hanging lamps: What is a trend these days are hanging lamps next to the bed. These are hung above the bedside table and equipped with a dimmer. This provides the desired amount of lighting and contributes to the aesthetic value of a lamp.

Firefly responsible for contemporary LED

Firefly responsible for contemporary LED FIREFLIES & TECHNOLOGY Thanks to the internal structure of fireflies, scientists have been able to improve the original LED, where little success has been achieved in the past. FIREFLY Fireflies fall under the family beetles, they are also known as fireflies or glow worms. There are around 2000 species and thanks to the light they are known all over the world. Fireflies have the remarkable property of independently producing light, a process called bioluminescence. In special organs in the abdomen, the pigment luciferin is oxidized in a biochemical reaction by the enzyme luciferase, producing light. Beneath the layer of light-producing cells is a layer of cells with small crystals that reflect the light to the outside. NICK HOLONYAK JR. In 1962, the first light-emitting diode (LED) was developed by the American physicist Nick Holonyak Jr. at that time he was employed as a scientist in the General Electric Company laboratory in Syra...
