  1. I make my own lights for years now. I hate most commercially available lights out there because the die because of overdriven led´s or crappy power suplies, and have poor color rendering index! The light temperature is not the most importent part for me, of cause it should be the right temperature for the usecase, but for me the most annoying part of bad lamps are the CRI!!!! Most commercially lights/bulbs are awful in that regard. Everything looks unnatural and it feels always off. I realized this as i tryed different bulbe replacements and couldent find any that made me happy, and than i used a defragmentation gradient to look at the colors, and there it struck me. Every damm bulb, head horendesly narow bands in spectrum... I started and serched for good led´s and tryed good ones (sadly just the big chinese Manufacturer sell these to mortals) And the cree and nichia ones with a CRI´s of 85, 90 and 98 are such a huge difference to all that crap Philips and co. selling!!! I have a wire system with 5 lights in my living room, with 7W each, at 3000k and a CRI of 90, and spot reflectors on them. Not that they just use all together just as much power as one halogen lamp they replace by making the exact same light and color. But they also now last for 5 years and i expcat them to last the next 15 also!
