Lights Low

Moth season after dark

Lights LowRe-light your evenings so your home stops pulling moths

Moths head for cool, bare light left on all night. Score each lamp and lit window, and get a fix that still lights the way.

Try a sample:

1 Your lights after dark free

1 row per light: an outdoor lamp, or a room you can see through a window from outside. Colour: a bulb marked 2700K or lower is warm, about 3000-4500K is plain white, 5000K or higher is cool.

    One run explains each light's fix in plain words and gives a first step that keeps it doing its job. The page re-checks the reply.

      How the scores work

      Each light scores 1 to 3 on colour (warm or amber 1, plain white 2, cool or bluish white 3), spread (points down or curtain closed 1, sideways or thin curtain 2, bare bulb or no curtain 3) and hours (motion sensor 1, evenings 2, all night 3). Its pull is the 3 multiplied, 1 to 27 - a rough guide, not a measurement. A pull of 4 or less is kept; otherwise the highest setting is lowered (ties: spread, then hours, then colour), which gives the fix and the pull after it. The verdict: beacon if any light pulls 18 or more, glow if any pulls 8 or more, otherwise lights low.

      Safety: keep steps, paths and doors lit enough to walk safely. Switch off and let a bulb cool before touching it; anything wired into the wall is a job for a qualified electrician. Everyday lighting talk, not professional advice.
