Default What energy efficient lights do you use for your kitchen?

It works very well, thanks. I had the same concern at first (especially
as the ceiling is quite low), but I've not had any problem. The PIR has
several settings:

There is about 2 secs fixed delay on switch-on.
LUX = max brightness (30) (I think I should probably have set this
lower, but it works!)
TIME1 = 3min
TIME2 = 30min hold-on time after being triggered for TIME1 (IIRC!)
METER = 6m range sensitivity

Which PIR have you used?

I am wavering about filling my kitchen with halogens, but I might
be able to square it with energy use if I include a PIR.
