Understanding Garage Lighting Brightness and Colour Temperature

Understanding IP Ratings for Bathroom Lights
Your bathroom is basically a sauna with tiles. Steam clouds, dripping taps, and accidental splash zones will all conspire against your lighting. That’s why not every light fitting belongs in there.
