In my last property I installed two ceiling light fans in the lounge diner which were a godsend in warm weather. The combined 6 x 60W bulbs were bright enough. A sixties built semi with relatively low ceilings.
I'm now in a Victorian semi with high ceilings. My problem is that I'd like to install a couple of ceiling fans in the lounge. But I've been through all the DIY warehouses and on some lighting websites trying to find lights that have bulbs more than 40-60W.
Most of these fans only have three lights at the most. And three 40-60W bulbs is not enough to light my room sufficiently.
Does anyone know why these fans have so little lighting in terms of numbers of bulbs or wattage? And if anyone knows where I can get ceiling fans with brighter lighting, please do tell.
I was tempted to put them in the bedrooms as well. Though a single 40W candle bulb would be like living like Charles Dickens. At least it would spare the blushes of SWMBO ;-)
