DIY Lighting tips to re-invent your interior


Is your house looking tired and un-inspired? Energy bills climbing just a little too high for your liking? Wanting to take on the challenge of doing up your home lighting all for yourself? If you answer to these questions is a big YES, then we have the answers for you, read on to find out more....


As a homeowner or DIY enthusiast, planning an effective and energy-efficient lighting solution for your home may seem like a daunting task. With so many different types of lighting available, it can be difficult to know where to start. Fortunately, EO have the know-how and the products to help you put your plan into action. That's why we've put together these tips to help you design the perfect lighting for your home:



  • Use Smart Lighting Technology.


Smart lighting technology, such as dimmer switches and motion sensors, can help you save energy and customise your lighting experience. For example, a dimmer switch can help you adjust the lighting in a room to suit your mood or task, while a motion sensor can help you save energy by automatically turning off lights when a room is unoccupied. Often times, Smart LED lights can also connect to your phone or other devices (tablet, etc.) to allow you to control aspects of the fittings, such as colour, brightness, and more.


At EO, we have an ever growing range of smart lighting products, from market leading brands such as Ansell, Energizer, and more. Our range includes Candle lamps, LED Strips, GU10's, E27 Lamps, GLS Lamps, and B22 Lamps, this helps to cover all bases and provide you with all the smart lighting solutions you could ever need. The perfect place to begin your DIY mission, shop here on EO for the best prices on smart lighting - https://www.electricalsonline.co.uk/category/smart-lighting



  • Upgrade to LED Lighting.


LED lighting is an energy-efficient and cost-effective alternative to traditional incandescent lamps. Not only do LED lamps last longer and use less energy, they also come in a wide range of colours and brightness levels. Linking back to the previous point, LED lighting can merge with the capabilities of today's smart lighting technology, as most Smart lamps are LED. Therefore saving you money on your energy bills while not missing out on modern lighting advancements.


LED Lighting, of course, is not limited to just lamps. As a prime example, at EO we provide LED lighting for domestic, commercial, and emergency use across an assortment of different fittings such as lamps, bulkheads, panels, downlights, exit lighting... the list goes on.



For domestic DIY purposes, the best and most common options are obviously lamps and downlights, available in an array of different shapes and sizes - GU10, Candle Lamp, etc. -, lamps can brighten up your living room and bedrooms and give a warm, cosy feel to your home. Downlights, on the other hand, are a suitable solution for your kitchen, bathroom, and generally all over your house as a ceiling light.



Available from the coolest of bright whites, to the warmest of colour temperatures, our downlight options allow you to pick and choose what kind of feel you want in the home. When it comes to bathrooms, you may want a cooler white temperature as is the standard, but for kitchens or other rooms where you have opted for downlights in your ceiling, rather than the use of lamps, warm white is the go-to choice. In particular, our sensio lights are a tailor made set of fittings designed to spice up your kitchen's appearance.



Going for downlights? We have: Ansell, Bell, JCC, Luceco, Ovia, Saxby, and Sensio lighting


In need of a new set of lamps? We have: Bell, Energizer, Eveready, JCB, Megaman, Osram, Philips.
