Primary Lighting: Primary lighting is the main source of light in a room. For a typical living room or bedroom, primary lighting can be achieved with the use of 9W or 12W LED down lights, depending on the size of the room. The height of the room also plays a factor in determining the number of lights required for primary lighting. For example, a room with an 8-foot ceiling would require one 9W or 12W LED down light for every 25-30 square feet of floor space.

Secondary Lighting: Secondary lighting is used to enhance the atmosphere of a room, highlight artwork, or create a specific mood. In a home, secondary lighting can be achieved through the use of smaller 3W or 5W LED down lights. These can be used to highlight specific areas, such as a reading nook or a piece of artwork. They can also be used in conjunction with primary lighting to create a layered lighting effect.

Primary Lighting: In an office setting, primary lighting is essential for creating a productive work environment. A general guideline for primary lighting is to use 9W or 12W LED down lights for every 30-40 square feet of floor space. The height of the ceiling will also determine the number of lights required.

Secondary Lighting: Secondary lighting in an office setting can be used to highlight specific areas or create a more comfortable atmosphere. For example, smaller 3W or 5W LED down lights can be used in a break room or conference room to create a relaxed atmosphere.

Primary Lighting: Primary lighting in a showroom is critical for highlighting products and creating an inviting atmosphere. In a showroom, it is important to use high-quality LED down lights with a high CRI value (83+). The number of lights required for primary lighting will depend on the size and layout of the showroom.

Secondary Lighting: Secondary lighting in a showroom can be used to highlight specific products or create a more dramatic effect. For example, colored LED down lights can be used to create a specific mood or draw attention to a particular product.

Primary Lighting: Primary lighting for outdoor areas is essential for safety and security. LED down lights with a higher wattage, such as 18W, are typically used for primary outdoor lighting. The number of lights required will depend on the size and layout of the outdoor area.

Secondary Lighting: Secondary lighting in an outdoor setting can be used to create a more welcoming atmosphere or highlight specific features of the outdoor space. For example, colored LED down lights can be used to highlight landscaping or architectural features. Smaller 3W or 5W LED down lights can also be used to create a layered lighting effect.
