Daft question but I don’t know what light bulbs to but for this light fitting. There are 8 lights so I guess I don’t want them too bright, what go you think?

If you can afford it, get Alexa/google or some other controlled dimmable bulbs.

You can then have them bright if you want to read for example or have them set at 25% for ambiance and just play around with the percentage brightness for your own comfort.

@NannyGythaOgg do you know how difficult they are to install? I have 12 foot high ceilings so can’t reach to fiddle about with them. If I ask the electrician to put them in and switch them on can the rest be done via WiFi?

Yep - they are left permanently switched on and all adjustments are made through Alexa or whatever app you use.

Thanks @NannyGythaOgg I think I’ll get some of those. I’ve spent 300 quid on the light fitting and electrician so don’t want it to look rubbish because I’ve got the wrong bulbs
