Choosing the right Low Energy lightbulb

you have a few choices to make - get it wrong and you'll probably be disappointed. To help you get it right we've put together a straightforward guide to clearly explain the options you have.

The basic choice is between Compact Flourescent (CFL) which offer long life, low running costs BUT tend to be larger, have some disposal issues, and are not dimmable verses LED which offer longlife, low power consumption, small, immediate start, yet are more expensive, not dimmable and tend to offer higher colour temperatures.

Use with dimmers

We are frequently asked about using low energy lamps with dimmers. The truth is that very few low energy lamps will work with dimmers. There are a few becoming available but they are expensive and relatively bulky. You CAN use a low energy lamp with a dimmer switch BUT you must leave the dimmer in it’s maximum position – if you try and dim the lamps they will flicker badly and you will reduce their life. (NB: it may emit a buzz and shorten the life expectancy of the bulb)
