Question 1

Are tube lights only used in commercial settings, or can I use them at home?

Accepted Answer

While commonly used in garages and basements, tube lights, especially LED tube lights, are becoming increasingly popular for their energy efficiency and bright light in home workshops, under-cabinet lighting, and even for creating a modern, minimalist look in certain rooms. They offer a lot of options for different areas of the house.

Question 2

I'm replacing a fixture in my dining room, and the old bulb was a funny shape. What's the difference between a candle and a bent-tip candle shape, and when would I use them?

Accepted Answer

Candle bulbs, with their classic flame-like shape, add a touch of elegance to chandeliers and decorative fixtures; the bent-tip candle variation enhances this by offering a more ornate and softer lighting effect. Both types are great for creating a warm, inviting ambiance in your dining or living room.

Question 3

What's the difference between BR and PAR bulbs, like a BR30 versus a PAR38?

Accepted Answer

BR bulbs are bulged reflector bulbs that produce a wider, more diffused pool of light. They are ideal for general room lighting and are often used in recessed cans. PAR bulbs, or parabolic aluminized reflector bulbs, create a more focused, intense beam of light, making them great for spotlights, task lighting, and outdoor applications.

Question 4

I have some old fluorescent tubes. What does the "G13" or "G23" base mean, and can I replace them with LED equivalents?

Accepted Answer

The “G” followed by a number such as "13" or "23" indicates a bi-pin connector specifically designed for fluorescent tubes. These include types that require different mounting types in some fixtures. Often, you can find LED equivalents designed with the same base type and mounting styles for easy replacements. Ensure the voltage and physical size match so your new bulb works safely.

Question 5

What are some of the best-selling Philips halogen light bulbs?

Accepted Answer

One of our best-selling Philips halogen light bulbs is the 50-Watt PAR20 Equivalent Halogen Indoor/Outdoor Flood Light Bulb (24-Pack).

Question 6

I'm looking for energy-efficient options. What are the benefits of using EcoSmart light bulbs?

Accepted Answer

EcoSmart light bulbs are designed to save energy and reduce your electricity bill, often using LED technology, while producing the same brightness as traditional incandescent bulbs. Beyond lower energy consumption, EcoSmart bulbs have a longer lifespan, meaning fewer replacements and less hassle for homeowners.
