Hi guys,
We have had a few comments recently about the way our megaman lamps page was layed out. A few customers had difficulty finding the megaman bulbs they were looking for. Given this feedback, we have now completely re-designed the layout of the megaman lamps page to mirror the megaman manufacturers website. All of the megaman lamps and bulbs can be found in the same place and order as if you were looking on the megaman website. We hope that this will make life quicker and easier for everyone when shopping.
Should you have any comments or queries on our megaman bulbs please be sure to let us know.
Thanks,

Track lighting is often a confusing topic and one which should be thought through in order to create the perfect track lighting system for your home, office or shop. We understand people that have little to no experience with track lighting will have questions. We have a team of lighting experts that can help you answer any queries you may have. Should you require assistance with things such as, “how many lengths of track would we need for a certain sized room?”, “how many track spotlights you would suggest we use on our length of track?”,”what track connectors do we need for our track circuit”, “how do I create this shape with your track and track connectors?” or any other questions; simply contact us at info@lightupuk.co.uk and we will have one of our lighting experts draw up the ideal solution.

To help make life easier, we have created a track lighting kit section to our site. Our track kits come with the right amount of track spotlights, track and track accessories & connectors so that you have everything you need to set up your track system. You have the option of black, silver and white track and track spotlights, you can also choose different track lengths and track spotlight combinations.
Should you have a large track lighting project please contact us as we can often offer larger discounts on project work. This project discount applies to all lighting and electrical products on our site.
We have finally released the first ever range of metal flat plate pink switches and sockets exclusive to Light Up Uk. These pink switches and sockets are manufactured here in the UK and are made from anodised aluminium and come with black trim and chrome rockers. Light Up Uk will shortly be adding a white trim option to choose from.

We worked very closely with the manufacturers in the making of these pink switches and sockets to ensure that the best colour and highest quality finish was obtained. We believe that this shade of pink will compliment all other shades making them great for updating existing interiors.
We have ensured that we supply a full range of switches and sockets from cooker switches to shaver sockets, allowing you to add them to any room in the house. These pink switches and sockets are great in pink girl’s rooms and are miles away from your typical tacky pink plastic switch cover alternative.
The pink range is extremely new and we are very excited to see your response and would love to hear your feedback.
So what’s different about Megaman LEDS?
Most leds on market only use 3 or 4 leds, each led being around 2 watts to give a total wattage of anything between 6 and 7watts. The problem with this is the hotter you run leds the more likely they are to fail and loose there colour temperature (ill explain colour temperature on another blog). As I said above, leds don’t like heat; this is why the better leds on market are alot bigger in length. Longer Leds have a heat shunt on them which protects the electronics and leds from the heat generated thus giving the leds a longer life. Of course if leds fail in fittings with only 4 in, the output resulting will be that of extremely reduced quality.
So why are Megaman leds different and better? To start with, megaman uses a massive 96 leds in the lamps (two blocks of 48 either side of a centre stem). This means each led is only being used at a very low wattage. Secondly if an led was to fail, the fall in output and quality will be almost unnoticeable.
