Author: Alfred Baldwin

When we talk about Color changing LED lights, there are many names in the market. Some of them also have a global presence. Here, one can get some very good color changing LED kits that offer excellent effects. However, some of them are too dim and hence, using them for main lighting in the room is not considered to be suitable. Similarly, when we talk about outside lighting, some excellent effects are given in the dark. However, don’t expect that they would give practical lighting. They are very similar to solar lamps and offer a bit more brightness.

There are indoor versions too which you can use in many places indoors for example ceilings, dado rails, skirting boards or on stairs. You can even use them on the bathroom ceilings but make sure you don’t use them on the shower or in a bath. They are either rectangle or round and their availability is either in brass or chrome. They are mounted on a surface.

There are outdoor version too which you can use indoors if you wish too. These are round and their thickness is either 15mm or 30mm. Most often, they are used in decking. However, wherever you wish to use them, you must drill a hole in the surface, for fitting them. The wiring would come out from the back of each light and you can hide all this under the decking.

There is a regulated mains adaptor that works at 12V and on this, both the versions work. Very little electricity is used and so they can be left on by many people. If you choose the basic kit, there are only a few number of lights. However, you can more if you buy an expandable lights and also some add-on lights. Some kits have a remote control and you can purchase this separately if you don’t have one. With this controller, 3 different flow speeds can be given, can be sound activated or can be frozen on 1 color.

You can also find the availability of single bulbs that have color changing electronics within the bulb. You can use these instead of conventional similar bulbs or in fitting that takes them. The bulbs are very suitable for outdoor or indoor use. However, if you are using it outdoors, ensure that the light fitting is very suitable. There are some very common bulbs that replace bayonet, halogen or screw fitted round bulbs.

If you use several bulbs together in various fittings, you must keep in mind that synchronization of the color changing wouldn’t happen as in case of the kits. Nowadays, people have a question as to whether a wall can be color washed with these kits or bulbs or not. The answer is that you won’t get much effect if you use 30 or 50cm down or up the wall. A better effect is given if you look at the lights. Nowadays, LED flood light bulbs have also become very popular.
