Hi,
Currently just have one light in the bathroom ceiling, a shallow dome with 13W mini fluorescent bulb. The room is 3.65m x2.30m. The ceiling is relatively low at 2.15m. We want the room brighter, and I think the best solution is going to two lights rather than just one brighter one. Maybe even two, each with the same output as the existing.
So my two questions are firstly how to compare specifications, what sort of lumens of lux am I looking for in an LED light to match the output from a 13W fluorescent. The exact bulb (copied from the order when I replaced it is "BIAX GE F13DBX/865/2p 13W daylight 6500k 2 pin").
The other question is to ask for recommendations for actual products, obviously they need to suitable for a bathroom. I'd prefer a plain design just a simple shallow dome or drum shape. Would prefer decent products as if one dies it's not like just swapping a bulb.
A family member uses "Ansell Disco Slim" fittings, I don't know whether they have the 7W or 13W, what is the view on these?
Finally I see some identical looking lights described as "Corridor Function", what is that?

Thanks, Tony S
