Great video and also +1 to a very good random YT recommendation. I have a question on your point about color consistency if you don't mind: I'm building a granny flat for my retired parents which is a single ~40 x 10 ft room with kitchenette at one end, small dining space in the middle and bedroom at the other. I was planning for GU10 track lighting in the kitchen at 3000k, then 2700k track in the dining and 2700k ceiling fan light above the bed. I totally get your point about 5000k to 2700k being jarring, but wdyt about the above given it's just one "room". Thabks again!

THINK TWICE BEFORE DOING... New smaller LED fixtures...nice looking - Yes Easier to install - Yes... but thats about it. I've installed hundreds of the new, flat, wafer style LED fixtures over the last couple years and after much pain and suffering have learned the fallout is terrible. When they die... you have to replace the entire fixture not just screw in a new bulb. And forget the 22 year life expectancy claim. Plus... good luck finding a replacement fixture of the same model with the same lumen output in the same color as the one you are replacing. I Installed 20 LED fixtures in a customers great room two years ago. was able to find a match when the first two lights failed... since then no luck. Same manufacturer, same model number but the color of the lights when lit do not match. The only fix was to replace all 20 fixtures to maintain color and brightness matching.

Cost and quality are serious considerations. No doubt. Inexpensive wafer downlights are not nearly as thermally protected and are likely to not perform well over time. That's why they're $20

Wow, awesome video. I'm also becoming a lighting nerd. It seems necessary these days. I I just moved into a place. When I first viewed it (during daytime), I thought all the walls were white and the lights were fine. It turns out the walls are a cool white (with a bit of blue), and the the color temperatures are very high (up to 6000K even in the bedroom) with no lack of lumens. Crazy. My question is: can I just swap out to some warmer temperatures within the context of this paint color. I.E. does warm light work with cool walls?

Im still a bit confused. I went to buy a smart LED bulb that had a chart on the back that said 0 - 6000k. It was at '3000k soft light'. I need the daylight lighting and the guy said it can do 5600k no problem. Huh? I read the box and it says it can do up to 5000k so why is it marked 'soft light 3000k'? Ugh..

Can you please make a video about the LittleTWOs that just came out with USAI? I can't find any actual video footage of what the lights look like when turned on. Everything is just magazine spread staged lightning. I really like USAI's littleOnes but I didn't think they were strong enough for my 11foot ceilings over a kitchen task/prep area. But the littleTwos seem to have much more delivered lumens, more than Element Tech lighting 3 inch downlights, so I'm highly considering them but I don't live near their showroom! :(

The kelvin is really your preference. I would think about what light you normally craft in (is there daylight or not) as far as enough light. There are many low cost LED lights on flexible stands (usually used for selfies and such) that you can mount on your table or maybe even the machine itself!

Im getting all new light fixtures and struggling to keep the color temps uniform and some LED fixtures are stuck at warm, some are soft. I picked a chandelier that uses 18 LED bulbs (wagon style). I been going with soft - the LED bulbs available for this lamp come in 2700 soft white, 3000 warm white, and 4000 Natural daylight. Im thinking maybe 3000 is the sweet spot? Thanks for any advice. this is in a large opening living room with a dining room adjacent that has soft light LEDs

This guy is just shilling for the companies he reps. If you notice, the 'advantages' he claims for the low voltage downlights are totally subjective. Glare? Too big a hole in your ceiling? The simple fact is that if you can use a 3.5 inch LED BR30 bulb in a traditional 4 inch 'can' fixture....and then, if the bulb dies, you simply replace the bulb yourself. When you install these new fancy low voltage LED downlights, when one of them dies....YOU GOTTA CALL AN ELECTRICIAN TO REPLACE IT. And, you have to hope that the company still makes the same model fixture. LED BR30 bulbs aren't going anywhere.
