Actually I always like use retro, vintage stuffs , electronics etc.
even come lighting. I still on traditional lamps, light which need " starters ".
So happen one of my floursent lamp faulty so plan to buy a new one. I always go to this shop usually to buy.
This time the lady told me don't have the old one but only got led one. She told me have to remove the starter in order to use this led floursent lamp.
Ok so I bought it.
I noticed come brightness LED is not say so bright compare to floursent lamp.

Traditional ones look better, in my opinion. I always stick with the traditional style. I just picked up a few
floor lamps at a great price from Sunmory. They’ve got some great lamps that are modern but still have a traditional look.

LED low wattage not so bright

Everyone says LED is brighter except you. May be you should get your gayish eyes check.
Here is what AI says about brightness of LED and others.......
When comparing LED and fluorescent lights of the same wattage, LED lights are generally brighter. This is because LEDs are more efficient at converting electrical energy into light. They produce more lumens (a measure of brightness) per watt compared to fluorescent lights. So, if you're looking for a brighter light with the same energy consumption, LEDs are the way to go. Plus, they have the added benefits of longer lifespan and lower energy costs over time. 🌟
Is there a specific project or room you're considering lighting up? Maybe I can help with more details!
Thinking is difficult, that's why most people judge

LED light can cause permanent eye damage.............museums in europe switched back to fluorescent light becoz the colours of their paintings were fading from LED light.....
