LED bulbs are the simplest way to upgrade everyday lighting in homes, shops and small commercial spaces. This Dr. Light guide walks through how to choose the right LED bulb for different rooms and uses in India.

1. What LED bulbs are good for

LED bulbs fit standard holders and are used for general room lighting, bedside lamps, pendants, shop counters and utility areas. They are a direct upgrade from older bulb types where the holder and shade stay the same.

2. Pick wattage for the room

Smaller rooms and accent lamps can use lower-wattage bulbs; larger living areas, shops and work zones may need brighter models or more bulbs across the space. Browse Dr. Light LED bulbs such as the BINV4 range in 15W, 24W and 36W.

3. Cool White or Warm White

Kitchens, offices and shops often use Cool White. Living rooms and bedrooms frequently prefer Warm White. Our colour temperature guide explains the difference.

4. Plan how many bulbs you need

One bulb in a large room can leave corners dim. Using several lower-output bulbs or combining bulbs with other fixtures builds more comfortable, even light.
