LED Retrofit Kitchen Lights

I've seen the light.

The white LED light that is..... and it's good.

New kitchen ceiling LED lights

Thanks to Westside Wholesale and retrofit LED kits from Halo Lighting, gone are the Bliss Ranch flood lights that cast a dingy yellow glow upon all of our kitchen.

Old flood lights that were replaced

I can be a little set in my ways sometimes.

So as I was hearing about replacing bulbs with LED ones that will save me money I first needed to know I would like the light my kitchen would be cast in.

Saving money wasn't going to be that great if I didn't like the light that would be shining down on me while I sliced and diced.

But I was thinking, "ohhhh man, I don't wanna replace all six of those fixtures - that would be a chore".

So I ate cheese-its and watched while Brawn stood on a ladder with his arms in the air, and changed the old flood lights out.

He used Halo recessed lighting  (click to check them out), retrofitted kits that made it easy, and the best part is the previously installed fixture does not have to be replaced.

Brawn has 30 years of electrical experience, so he was able to do this on his own, but you might need to have an electrician help you out depending on the knowledge base of wiring at your house. 

A couple wires are attached, a new part screws in and the rest of the light is easily installed.

At least it seemed easy from where I was sitting munching on my snack with my camera on my lap.

The LED lighting kits come with the ring attached, a one piece deal, and to the naked eye you can not even tell the light fixture has been changed.

After installation, you will notice a difference in the light you see.  LED casts a whiter glow than I was used too, it's brighter, a happier feeling, but not a harsh white.

So how does the person who is a little set in her ways feel about the new white LED lights?

I love them!

I like the cast the new white light shines in our kitchen, as well as the look of the retrofit outside component.

We like them so much we also retrofitted the can lights in a long hallway, and we have a couple other recessed lights on the list to replace.

Since our kitchen lights tend to be on all the time, I'm anxious to see the savings on our electric bill, plus LED will burn much much longer which means no more constantly replacing the flood bulbs.

I will probably order some more soon to take advantage of holiday savings, and maybe even give a couple as gifts to the married offspring.  You can check the kits out yourself on the Westside Wholesale web site, plus they've got lots of other things besides lights.

These little LED's of mine, I'm gonna let 'em shine.......
