The note when selecting book lights
The light intensity of the book lights: Light is considered as the most important factor to contribute to the perfection of all interior works. In particular, the reading space requires even more light to meet the high-quality standards to ensure a stable light source, without blinking so that the reader does not have to operate continuously to cause eye problems.
Accordingly, the best range of light recommended is from 3500K – 4000K – 5000K. This is natural light and is close to the light of the human body and allows you to concentrate on your reading.
Meanwhile, decorative wall lights with a brightness below 3500K will bring low light sources, making you more likely to experience drowsiness and not be alert enough to read books anymore. And with lights over 5000K intensity causes the dazzling feeling and adversely affects the reading process as well as your health. Another small note is that you should choose a light with a gentle yellow color so that it can bring a warm feeling but it is good for the eyes when it has to work continuously for many hours.
Lamp power: Along with the intensity of light, the light output is also a criterion for you to choose a book light.
To choose a book light in the reading room, you should choose a lamp with a capacity of 1.5W-3W. With this moderate brightness level, you can comfortably read your favorite books without having to worry about health problems as well as power consumption, costing the family.
Type of light bulb: On the market today, there are many specialized lamp models for studying, working and reading, but the most outstanding with outstanding benefits is the LED light.
Possessing superior features, this modern lamp is widely chosen by users to light up the reading space and protect their health effectively. In the past, incandescent and fluorescent lamps were rated as the two most common types of lights on the lighting market. However now we witness the spectacular usurpation of led bulbs.
With advanced technology, LEDs were introduced to help solve the problems of traditional light bulbs in terms of both the lighting ability and environmentally friendly characteristics. The cleverness in the design has brought a product that both provides the optimal light source for the room and super-saving power consumption, so you can cut a significant cost when using this lamp.
Besides, LEDs have a conversion of energy as high as 90% of electricity into photovoltaic. Meanwhile, traditional lamps only about 30% of that number. At the same time, with low heat, you will not feel uncomfortable when reading books under the LED light for a long time.
Another plus point for this impressive product is that it is environmentally friendly, does not contain harmful chemicals such as mercury, lead, helps bring safety to users and contribute to building a healthy living environment.
