Have you heard of global warming?

Hint: 420W of bulbs in your lounge is as obscene as a Range Rover Sport in
Chelsea.

my dimmer switch is rated 250w - I assume as the lights
are presumably wired in parallel this is ok


Of course it isn't. Did you actually go to school?

Christian.


Ive got a total of 500W in mine and its still not enough for 30 sq meters...
