4. Philips Hue LED Lighting
Philips 431643 Hue Personal Wireless Lighting, Starter Pack, Frustration Free is a must have in a classy house of the future. Not only does it save you a lot of that hard earned money, it also makes you look cool. The Philips LED bulbs are 9 watts. Compare that to the wattage of your current light bulbs and you will see the cost savings right away. If you are still using incandescent bulbs, then they are probably between 60 and 100 watts each. Incandescent bulbs are either blue or orange tinted, and only transfer 20% of the energy consumed into light. (the rest of the energy consumed is transferred to heat skyrocketing your cooling costs). If you switched to CFL’s (compact fluorescents) then you are likely using 15 watt bulbs (still 30% more energy wasted) and they likely have an ugly green hue to them.
The Philips Hue LED bulbs will not only save you money from your lighting usage and reduced cooling costs, but they also are equipped with full RGB color mixing. That means you can turn any bulb to any color at any intensity you want from your tablet or smartphone. From a bright white work environment to a dim warm romantic evening to a multi colored party vibe… the Philips Hue system will make your pad the classiest on the street.
