We installed forty in the gallery four years ago. Cost $1600. So far the savings is about $10,000 figuring a reduction in watts of about $200 per month. And they never burn out. When I first brought it up on FR four years ago I took a full ration of sh!t from everybody. I get the last laugh now. They are TCP and we get them from Gladiator Lighting.

Come for a visit and we'll have a beer to discuss.

Color temperature is important.

2700 K - your typical yellow light is considered warm and inviting but makes one feel sleepy in the winter.

6500 K - true daylight - is bright white - great for the winter blues but for a lot of people it comes across as cold and clinical in a residential setting.

4100 K - the happy medium - nice bright white light without the yellows and the blues.
