At first, the chandelier used energy-saving lamps, and the light was very weak. Reading at the dinner table at night affects the line of sight of reading. So, I decided to replace the energy-saving lamp with Op 3W LED lamp.
I read the detailed instructions when changing the LED lights. The brightness of 3W LED bulbs is similar to that of 20W incandescent lamps. I think three 3W LEDs add up to the light of a 60W incandescent lamp.
In fact, after a long period of use, the 3W LED lamp did not increase the special brightness. Reading under the chandelier at night is still very much like before.
Because there is no study at home, I read under the desk lamp in the middle of the night. The bright light of the desk lamp in the dark is like the morning sun, which affects my other partner's sleep.
In order to avoid such an embarrassing situation, I thought about how to solve this thorny problem. How to modify the existing chandelier? This problem has been hovering in my mind for some time, and there is no sign of a good plan.
"Modified restaurant chandelier? Yes, modify the chandelier! " One day, I leaned back on the sofa and stared at the dining room chandelier (the sofa is next to the dining room chandelier). I glanced around the fixed base of the ceiling chandelier and found that the chandelier line was a little short.
The spherical glass of the chandelier is so far away from the desktop of the dining table that the light can be gathered to illuminate the dining table only if the spherical glass lampshade does not gather the light source. So, sitting in a chair, the lights on the desktop are not bright enough at night.
I suddenly thought of the idea of refitting, and I need to change the chandelier into one that lights at night. "How to modify it?" After thinking for a while, why not let the spherical glass be closer to the desktop, so that the desktop will be lit?
In other words, the ultra-short chandelier line is lengthened and modified into a long-line chandelier. Isn't the problem of poor light improved? Good idea!
The key to refitting the chandelier is the chandelier line. When the chandelier line is solved, the problem is solved.
How much has the chandelier line been extended? In other words, how far is the spherical glass lampshade from the desktop?
At KFC, IKEA had a meal and found that most of the chandeliers on the tables of these two western-style fast food were close to the desktop. What is the appropriate distance? There is no concept in this heart.
The lighting designer suggested that the height of the chandelier should be kept at 70 ㎝ ~ 80 ㎝.
So, I boarded the dining table and measured the distance between the edge of the lowest glass lampshade and the desktop 120㎝. It turns out that the distance between the chandelier and the desktop 120㎝ is more than 50 ㎝ higher than that suggested by the lighting designer.
Three groups of spherical glass measurement data:
A. 120
B. 126
C. 134
How many chandelier lines need to be extended?
Distance between chandeliers 70㎝ Extension line
Answer? The spacing is 70㎝ 50㎝.
b？ The spacing is 70㎝ 56㎝.
c？ The spacing is 70㎝ 64㎝.
The distance between the chandeliers is 80㎝ extension line? Replacement line
Answer? The spacing is 80㎝ 40㎝? 7㎝
b？ The spacing is 80㎝ 46㎝? 13㎝
c？ The spacing is 80㎝ 54㎝? 2 1㎝
Ceiling to desktop 184㎝ (excluding chandelier fixing plate 2㎝)
The minimum spacing of spherical glass lampshades is 75㎝, and the actual length of each lamp is:
I. 107 \
b . 10 1 \
C.93
The key point of refitting chandelier: how to find the right chandelier line?
The original chandelier line is a transparent round line, so it is not easy to find the original transparent round line. Ask several hardware decoration shops around the community.
There are power cords, which are mainly used for the renovation of home improvement lines, mostly flat double-stranded power cords. There are large diameter round cables, which cannot be used for lighting and power supply.
What if the hardware decoration store doesn't have a chandelier line of similar specifications as I want?
Therefore, from offline to online search, there are questions and answers. You are absolutely right. When you have a question in your mind, you may not be able to find the answer in time. However, with the passage of time, I will guide myself step by step to find the answer. In a casual moment, the answer I want came to my mind.
It can be said that the best prerequisite for solving problems is to ask questions and keep thinking about them. The answer you want may appear in front of you in a casual moment with the passage of time.
This is the charm of the problem!
In just a few minutes, I found the chandelier line I wanted online, each with a length of 1 m, which met my requirements. There are several colors of chandelier lines, and I firmly choose black.
Because the walls of the dining room are white. The round glass lampshade is transparent, and the black chandelier line forms a strong contrast with the white wall.
There is still something wrong with the chandelier. One of the three lamp holders has poor contact. When the chandelier is turned on, it sometimes lights up and sometimes it doesn't.
Originally, the light of the light source is a little weak. If one of them is not bright, the overall light is even weaker. Reading under the chandelier is even worse.
This is an important reason why I want to transform the restaurant.
It took five hours to press the lighting switch in the electric control cabinet, and one of the three ball lights tested flashed and then went out with a bang. It turns out that the circuit is short-circuited!
The first modification of the chandelier failed! I thought about it carefully, mainly when replacing the extension cord, I cut off the original transparent round line and kept the lamp holder. The lamp holder is linked with the new extension line, and the operation difficulty coefficient is very large.
Because the link space is narrow, it is not good to fix the stripped copper wire on the two interfaces of the lamp holder. In addition, the two interfaces of the lamp holder are close to each other.
Connect the lamp holder to the metal post of the chandelier and twist it a few times, which is likely to cause two wires on the lamp holder to meet. Turn on the lighting switch, resulting in short circuit tripping.
The next step is to replace the new lamp holder and reinstall it! Looking forward to the next revision!
Two days later, the newly bought lampholders arrived, and all the original short-circuited lampholders were replaced.
After careful consideration, the original chandelier metal decoration was replaced and converted into IKEA's simple lighting style. Turn on the switch, the chandelier is on!
Seven days a week, I experienced a short circuit burning failure. Six chandelier extension cords and six lamp holders were used (three were broken), three original chandelier metal decorations were replaced, and three original lamp holders were replaced.
The modification is complete!
If you want to accomplish something, just think and ask yourself questions. As time goes by, keep thinking and acting hard.
You can do it one day! This is the charm of asking and thinking!
