Ecola LED Bulbs

LED lamps are used everywhere: for the automotive industry, in construction, for decorating the interior of a room and the exterior of a building. With the advent of the brand Ecola in the market the purchase of such lamps has finally become available.

The Ecola brand appeared in 2000, offering a fairly large range of different products at affordable prices. By 2010, the number of different models reached 600, and Ecola was recognized as one of the leaders of the Russian market.

Despite the fact that it is a company of Chinese origin, it offers fairly high-quality samples with a long period of service. Ecola products have both advantages and disadvantages, but the company is constantly working to eliminate the latter.

The company has the main production in China, in fact, their head office is located in the same place, however there is a representative office in Russia, in Moscow. The main profile of the brand - built-in lighting equipment and light bulbs for it.Ecola is doing quite well: it has declared itself to be a fairly good manufacturer, the positive aspects of the products are noted both by large organizations selling goods and ordinary users. The quality is not stereotypical Chinese. Lamps are durable, safe, are presented by the mass of design decisions.

Ecola offers LED products at significantly lower prices than competitors, while the lamp companies are of good quality. They economically consume electricity, which distinguishes LED models from ordinary incandescent lamps. Light bulbs are durable and can last up to 30,000 hours, while they can often be turned off and on, and they do not spoil.

Light bulbs of the company tolerate changes in the weather environment, such as humidity, temperature drops and others. They are not damaged, so that their use is completely safe for both humans and the environment.Special cooling systems are introduced into the bulbs; with their help, the lamps remain constantly cold and do not cause heating of surrounding objects. The company offers various modulations of the basement element, so you can choose an Ecola bulb for any chandelier, sconce, lamp.

The company places particular emphasis on the production of lamps. with zero ripple. The pulsation of the luminous flux is practically not perceived with the naked eye, you can notice some fluctuations only peripheral vision, and that is not always. However, in fact, pulsation plays a huge role: it affects a person in a negative way, increasing fatigue and badly affecting vision. With prolonged exposure to lamps with its high coefficient, there are difficulties with concentration, headaches, severe fatigue.

Ecola offers a huge range of different light-producing designs. These include the following:

• The lamps. The company represents a large selection of lamps, differing in the structure of the base and shape.Offer types of caps GX53, GX70, E14, E27, E40 or GU 5.3, G9. The shapes of light bulbs are “corn”, a candle, a bulb, a spiral or ordinary pear-shaped ones. Due to the wide variation of forms and designs, light bulbs can be selected to any chandelier or sconce. Lamps are made as LED, and energy-saving. Glass is also different: you can choose opaque, and you can transparent. The degree of intensity of light depends on this: the frosted glass absorbs about 5% of the light and scatters it, while the transparent transmits the beam almost completely.

• Light fixtures. There are both recessed lights, and models on a clothespin or overhead. The various forms of the cartridges, like the lamps themselves, are striking in their diversity. You can pick up ammo E271, GU5.3215, GU104, GX407, GX53313 or GX70. Lamp shapes: circle, square, oval, rectangle, ellipse, cylinder, octagon. The models are made in different color variations: white, gold, bronze and others. There are recessed and overhead spotlights that can be rotated and redirected directly within the holder. There are also dimmable models with the ability to adjust the intensity of the light flux.

• Spotlights. Used for outdoor lighting as sources of narrowly directed light.There are models with a lamp or LED. The latter are much brighter than the first, but also slightly more expensive. The sizes of structures, their power and temperature of light vary. So, with a value of 2700K, you can get a soft yellow-orange stream, at 4200K - neutral white, and at 6000K - cold white-violet.

• Tape. The use of this relatively new type of lighting has already been loved by all professional designers. The ease of installation and the abundance of options make the LED strip an excellent choice for "difficult" areas. Ecola company offers ribbons of different widths with varying degrees of brightness, and it can vary depending on the power of the LEDs themselves, and on the frequency of their location. Different unusual colors, such as red, green, blue, white and others allow you to choose from the lineup what you need. The degree of protection also varies: it is possible to choose a LED strip for the bathroom.

• The panels. This species appeared in the Ecola product line quite recently. The manufacturer claims that such a panel can easily replace conventional lamp lamps from Armstrong ceilings. LED panels are presented in various capacities and color temperatures, and consume significantly less electrical energy than standard ceiling lamps.

To make the right choice, you need to focus on many factors. In particular, the important factors are the stylistic unity of the room and the colors that prevail in it, the shape of the surrounding space and the type of ceiling, if you plan to install a ceiling lamp.

The ideal choice for suspended ceilings will be to buy embedded LED designs. Ecola models are famous for their small size while maintaining the power of the lamp. The built-in model will allow to take only 50-60 mm of additional height under it.

Overhead models are good for installation in public institutions such as hospitals or schools, as well as for the decoration of street space. They are bulky and create enough light to illuminate a large area.

The choice of lighting color also plays an important role. White cold is good in cases where you need to make the room as bright as possible.For ordinary homes, values ​​higher than 4000 K are usually not applied, it is the prerogative of professional buildings, for example, beauty salons or shops.

Warm light is chosen for ordinary apartments and houses, where you need to create an atmosphere of comfort, comfort and peace. Ecola offers a choice of not only lamps of such color temperature, but also light bulbs for ordinary wall lamps. Thanks to the newest design, the bulbs do not heat up at all and can be used even with fabric shades, and interesting shapes, for example, in the form of a candle, make it possible to install the lamps in open sconces.

LED lighting, made with the help of LED-tape, will look good under the ceiling or behind a mirror, highlighting it. For LED strips to choose from the widest range of colors, which can be found in the assortment of the company Ecola, so that problems with the choice should arise.

LED panels need to buy to replace existing lighting designs using fluorescent lamps. The use of LEDs is more economical and more environmentally friendly, besides, choosing a model with a zero pulsation coefficient will increase the efficiency of work in this room.

Installation of Ecola LED lamps is made by analogy with other similar lighting devices. You can also mount point sources of lighting yourself if you follow the action plan below:

• You will need the spotlights and lamps themselves, the power wires, the terminals in order to connect the wires, the electrical tape and the switch.
• Choose a soft wire. Depending on the type of ceiling, different wires can be used: VVG-2 (3) x1.5 for gypsum plasterboard, RCGM for plastic or MDF.
• Instead of the usual household terminals, you should choose copper sleeves. They do not require checking every six months, as the wires do not get charred when in contact with them.
• For stretch ceilings instead of electrical tape is to use a special heat shrink tube.

• Plan the lighting and mark on the plan where each of the lamps will be. When planning, consider that the distance between the lamps should not be more than a meter, and between the lamp and the wall - 60 cm.
• Run the wires connected to the wiring to each future lamp from the place of the future switch and fasten it to the frame. Do not leave the wires just lying on the surface of the stretch ceiling, it is not safe.
• Stretch the canvas linen.

• Using a special device - wood crowns - make holes in the ceiling for lamps. The diameter is selected based on the dimensions of the purchased fixtures.
• Get the wires out. Fasten the wires and luminaire power contacts with terminals.
• Mount the lamp by screwing the legs of the rack to the ceiling in the recess. Attach to them a rack of lamps. The ceiling canvass should first be strengthened with a tread ring inside and insulated from the outside, this will prevent the ceiling from breaking. Attach a luminaire to the finished structure.

Reviews of lamps Ecola presented the most controversial. A large majority of consumers complain about product quality, citing the fact that it has served much less than the promised time.The manufacturer explains this incorrectly chosen power bulbs or poor wiring, because as a result of drops of electricity, the highest quality light bulb may become unusable.

Other people were dissatisfied with the fact that the warranty on the lamps is provided for only 12 months. You can understand the indignation of people, because all self-respecting global manufacturers offer a longer-term guarantee.

However, a lot of positive feedback has also been written. The greatest delight was caused by the brightness of the light bulbs. Many people wrote that Some models are equipped with a function of gradual attenuation after shutdown. This allows your eyes to quickly adapt to the dark.

Ecola fixtures actually save electricity. Their customers report that after repairing and installing LED lamps of this brand, they really did get much lower bills for electricity, while the quality and characteristics of lighting only improved.

In general, people were divided into two approximately the same camps: those who like Ecola products, and those who swore to ever buy products from this company. To say definitely what kind of reviews more, it will not work, because how many people, so many opinions.
