I'll continue my "test" and other halogen lamps for the home. 
At this time in my test were lamps of smaller diameter, with cap MR11, because the devil pulled us to ceiling halogen lamps at different walls with different cap. This choice was motivated enough vague grounds, ostensibly because large size lamp MR16 (socket G5.3) have more power, and are heated more strongly, although brighter, and therefore on the wall, where it is necessary to make it light, we do 35 watt lamps MR16, and where only decorative lights, there have lamps rated 20 watts, but the MR 11. Now here are thinking, why all this should have been? But to alter the ceiling is not hunting, so you have to pick up the lamp of the reduced format. Then, when we did, we still had no idea that halogen spotlights can choose almost any of brightness and power, but the choice then was not so great, why have there something like that. Generally, as I remember, before halogen lamps for point lights were on 12 v, and there are now a normal halogen lamp at 220 volts, so you should also change the wiring, because the transformer thing is not very reliable - and are heated and lit. In addition, the transformers still question whether they will work with dimmers, but the lamp will operate at 220V. Compared with energy-saving, and led lamps, halogen lamps are pleased only price. So our choice - halogen lighting, and more precisely point recessed halogen lighting. But, because saving is not, and warming themselves, they are very good - too powerful to put dangerous if ventilation is inadequate.
This time I bought a test tube with the following characteristics:
Halogen MR11
Power: 35 W
Power: 220
Manufacturer: Russia, Elektrostandard
Works with a dimmer
Clear glass
UV filter
You do not know how to steal electricity? It's pretty simple. You just have to make a connection to the counter And in private homes and often do, and do free heating free electricity, because the heat with wood is very expensive. Not so long ago came to us from Energosbyt, and checked whether we have hidden wiring. So, they tested it in some device, while disabling the light throughout the house. So that's very similar to this device that I saw in Castorama not so long ago. The device proved to be not only a detector of electricity, but a simple metal detector, so I could not deny myself to buy a metal detector - childhood dream - and very cheap I remember as a child wanted to have a metal detector and find the treasure. But then with them was tight, even collect it on his scheme was difficult, because no details really небыло or normal simple circuits. Вобщем course it is not a professional metal detector professional treasure hunter. However, electricity and iron in the walls, he looks normal. The depth of the iron scraps limited to just five centimeters, so even qualitatively hidden treasure in the wall, hardly noticing
Find a metal detector is simple enough. Turn on the desired mode detection switch, and Twister expose the desired level of sensitivity. Instructions attached to a metal detector at a variety of languages, so with the understanding of the principles of work you will not.
Interestingly, in the photo as you can see, there is a search coil metal detector. But if you make a big coil and plug instead of this, will he be able to look deeper?
But in general, perhaps later I'll buy a normal metal detector, or make your own hands, because in principle there is no big deal.
Manufacturer of metal detector under the brand name D? wi is in Germany, and production in China, what sobsno no surprise.
UPD: Today was a radio parts store, and saw in the window sets Master Keith, himself a metal detector, metal detector coil is a separate set. Price list, though not "democratic", but it seems acceptable, but to "indulge yourself" is the desire to buy as a no
You love to get up at night, and wander around the house in the dark, looking at the touch light switch, and then wincing at the bright lights go on? I do not like. And have long appreciated the advantages of using lamps - the lamp, when and where you go see, and much electricity do not overpay. But the Chinese fluorescent lamps lighting fixtures is one feature. They burn out. Sooner or later. Although, in general fluorescent lamps in general have the disadvantage that at high humidity lamps gradually darken from one corner, and then just burn out. It is for this lamp, installed in the bathroom have to be changed more often than others. Therefore, in the last campaign on Castorama had to buy a night light lamp manufacturer PHOENIX. Incidentally, these nightlights somehow serve longer than those the same noneym, or brand Cosmos . And shine way too better. That is why I have nearly all night-the house was replaced them. And they burn way too much rarer, I too have noticed On the night light is the way the switch, so always embed-removed from the socket it is not necessary. It is a pity that did not make the night-light with light sensor, so they switched off in daylight. Certainly night-light with sensors, but they are simple, not fluorescent, and the power they have 7 watts, and the light is not very much. The reason for this is that fluorescent lamps do not work with light sensor, dimmers and motion sensors. That is, in principle, it can be done, but it will be much more expensive, so this has yet to do.
Features lamps lighting:
Operating voltage: 220V, 50-60Hz
Power consumption: 1W
Glow color: Green

An epic selection of lamps in the wall continues Once in a sample was purchased LED energy saving lamp , it seemed to me that still gives light blue tint, which is not very pleasant. It turns out that like office light - cold. I prefer a warmer light. Recently BauCenter was seen brand products Elektrostandard , which appears and advances on the Russian market BauCenter. Compact fluorescent energy saving lamp, as the inscription on the packaging is a yellow light of 2700K, which is home made me very happy. It was bought by a lamp on the sample.
In general, the use of energy-saving bulbs is as it seems to me a compromise between the LED - a very expensive, and halogen - cheap but not cost-effective. The only disadvantage of energy-saving lamps, which is inherent in the fluorescent lamps - the inability to work with dimmers and motion sensors. They just burn through some time - I discovered this on their own experience That is why I have a sensor is low power, but the halogen lamp. Power fluorescent lamps halogen lower, but above the LED, but the brightness of the LED weaker fluorescent lamp, which shines almost as well as halogen. So what better energy-saving lamps specifically for you, have to decide for you and your wallet.
Generally speaking, often to connect a power-saving lamps to the network requires a special circuit for fluorescent lamp, which makes the "start" lamp. This energy-saving lamp has model MR16 - the first I saw, in which the "starter" built into the lamp, and redo the wiring for installation of the lamp is not required.
Characteristics of fluorescent lamps:
Socket: G5.3

Brightness: 300 lumens
Power: 11 Watts
Power: 220 V, 50-60Hz
Model: MR16
Service life: 8000 hours
Production: It's like Russia. Under the supervision of German Elektrostandard
For some time now in my head is spinning thinking about how to put home LED light bulb, where there are regular spotlights, whose base JCDR. Generally, it is thought to put LED bulbs in street lighting to the evening covered playground in front of the door - it will be more economical than any galogenka. Of course, now you can freely buy LED bulbs in any major hardware store, however, prices for these products democracy is not democratic, I'll tell you. LED lamp, about which I shall tell you, was the most expensive, which I saw. Generally, this lamp is low power, 1.2 watts, so the price is low. However, once decided to search the internet high brightness LED lamps, and I still want to tell you that the pleasure is too expensive, that we ordinary people to buy them Roughly speaking, normally if the LED lamp power of 7 watts stand that way 1000 rubles (approximately). I am still yet profitable conventional halogen incandescent lamp (JCDR - GU5.3) even though she and a glutton. On the other hand, energy-efficient LED bulbs at 220V can recapture the cost of electricity over time. Because the lamp 2w saves electricity better than lamp 35w. Actually, I think that soon, as LED lamp, China set to stream, and the production of light bulbs will go in each province they will drop enough to mass purchases do not hesitate to buy in the store LED lamps instead of halogen.
In general, the base LED lamps is different, but you want me to GU 5.3 JCDR was only in one store. In another they were, but небыло white and blue houses and green light does not suit me
Here are the characteristics of this lamp:
