Should I install HPS lighting in my home?
I read that high pressure sodium lighting, the kind used to illuminate streets and parking lots, is very effecient, 140 lumens per watt. That represents a substantial cost saving over other types of lighting, such as incandenscent or fluorescent. The only drawback is the monochromatic amber color, but I figure I can get used to that. I mean, how important can it be it to see colors in the home? Will I have a hard time persuading my wife to agree to this?
Sodium Vapour Lamps take a high amount of wattage (via a transformer it kicks the voltage up to a range of the 1,000's), the wiring might not be able to take it
If you want to get efficient lighting, I recommend LED lighting. LED's use between 2 and 5 volts, and have a current draw of 20mA (.020 Amps).
Both forms of Lighting, on a medium to large scale application, does not run cheap.
Here's a good chart showing different types of lighting
