Which dimmer fits to my SEGULA LED lamp?

You can find tested dimmers that match the SEGULA lamps in our dimmer list.
These can be found under Service / Downloads.
If you do not use any of them, we recommend phase section dimmers with low power consumption!

What does the Kelvin specification mean?

Light is emitted by LED lamps in various colour tones (colour temperatures). However, this does not mean coloured lamps (red, yellow, blue, green, orange) but the “appearance” of the light. This colour temperature is given in Kelvin.

Warmer light colours (warm white) range from 2,000 to 3,300 Kelvin

Neutral light colours (neutral white) range from 3,300 to approx. 5,000 Kelvin

Daylight white light colours (daylight) are at 5000 Kelvin upwards.

In WATT’sons Blog you will find a more detailed explanation with some examples of which color temperature is suitable for which application.

What is the CRI?

DEFINITION

CRI – the Color Rendering Index is the measure of the color rendering of a light source. The “colour rendering index” or the abbreviation “Ra”, which we find again and again. The maximum value is 100, which means that the closer the CRI of a lamp comes to 100, the better the colour rendering of this lamp. The maximum value of 100 theoretically stands for the optimum colour representation of the wavelengths we perceive.

Do not dispose of illuminant in household waste – Electronic scrap

 

 

I ordered 10 lamps, why aren’t they exactly the same size?

Because at SEGULA everything is still produced by hand. Above all to guarantee consistent quality. That is why there are minimal deviations within a product range. However, these are ALWAYS within the tolerances!

Can I order the pendant luminaires with different cable lengths and colours?

 Unfortunately not. The products in our online shop are available as shown and described. If you would like to order large quantities in other designs please write to info@segula.de – in most cases we will find a solution!

I am a dealer, do I get special conditions?

Sure! Just subscribe in our online shop under dealer registration.

How long does it take for my product to reach me?

Usually we deliver in about 2-3 days! This is for all products on stock. Depending on the product, the delivery time can sometimes take up to three weeks. This is partly due to the fact that we cooperate with worldwide producers and that some of the high-quality goods are still produced by hand on call. If you want to make sure that your order arrives on time, please don’t hesitate to send us an email or give us a call!

Why is it that my lamp does not shine in the socket, but does in other lamps?

It is possible that the contacts are too flat and only need to be bent slightly upwards. Please disconnect the lamp from the power supply!
