How to Bring More Outside Light into a House

Dark rooms can make your home feel small and dreary, and letting some natural light in is a great way to open up the space. The easiest way to bring more outside light into your house is to clean and open up your windows so they are letting in as much light as possible. However, even if you do not have a ton of bright windows in your home, there are still things you can do to make it sunnier, like painting your walls a lighter color and using reflective decor. For particularly dark rooms, you can also use LED lights and special fixtures that replicate natural lighting.

1. What are the laws on aux LED lights on motorcycles in VA?

Your best bet would be to call/visit your local BMV or state highway patrol and ask them as to your limitations

2. doesn't ohm's law applied to every thing? [closed]

Ohm's law specifically deals with the relationship between direct voltage, current and linear resistance in the form V = IR. For AC circuits it can be generalised to V =IZ where Z is a complex impedance.Transformers convert an alternating primary current into an alternating magnetic field in the core which is then converted back to an alternating voltage in the secondary coil - This effect was demonstrated by Michael Faraday. (Google Faraday, transformer) He showed that the input and output voltages where connected by the turns ratio. For a 100% efficient transformer we get:We must also apply the conservation of energy rule - you can not get more out than you put in. Given that there will always be a loss of energy (heat, noise etc.) the power output will always be less than the power input. always greater Iin * Vin > Iout * Vout (Power in is always greater than power out)If a load is connected to the secondary coil a current will flow. The transformer will react by increasing the primary current in line with the transformer turns ratio in order to maintain the power in to power out relationship.A filament bulb works by heating the filament to a high temperature. Most of the energy used is radiated as heat rather than light, making this type of bulb inefficient. The colour of the light is determined by temperature. (Google black body radiation, Stefan-Boltzmann law).'Energy saver' bulbs use a gas discharge lamp and phosphor coatings to produce light. (Google - Electric discharge in gases) The current passing through the reduced pressure gas excites electrons directly which then jump from one energy band to another before decaying and emitting a photon. (Google - Planck-Einstein relationship) This means that they generate light energy directly without the need to generate lots of heat energy. This makes them more energy efficient that filament bulbs for the same power input. Hence the term 'energy saver.'LED lights (Google band gap, LED) use a similar principle (electrons jumping from one level to another) through a PN junction in a semiconductor.This is more efficient than gas discharge lamps giving LED lighting more lumens (light output) per watt.

3. Is it against the law to have blue LED lights on your car in Pennsylvania?

that may fall under the city ordanance or law.-like different shades of tinted window, or what window can not be tinted. as in, maybe if you live in the town, not against the law, but if you live in the next town, then yes. call someone, dmv? sheriff station? get the run around until you finally find the right person to ask.

4. How long will a 15 meters strip of LED lights run off a fully charged deep cell battery?

Can you check the Amp Hour rating of the battery please ? If the LEDs are 15 watts that's a little over 1 amp. That means it will light the LED string for at least 60 hours. A battery is usually rated over 20 hours so that would be 3 amps x 20 hours. If you only draw 1 amp you will get a bigger AH rating, which is why I say at least 60 hours, it could be significantly more. A lead-acid battery can deliver a huge current so make sure there is a 2 amp fuse in the circuit, right next to the ve battery terminal is best. I wonder why you feel you need a marine battery for this ? The whole point of a marine battery is to start a big engine. 1 amp is a very small current, so I would recommend you use a much smaller, non-marine battery. You could use a small battery from a mobility vehicle, these are designed for deep discharge, even a used one will light your LEDs for a very long time. unless your battery is actually in a boat or a secure environment where it can not be knocked over, an SLA or AGM type is safer because they are designed not to spill any acid out.
