Inspection went fine! Actually had the senior PM come, instead of the newbie from last time. Senior PM said newbie was wrong about the law regarding downlights, lol, and that it does in fact require an electrician that the RE will send out to change 😂 newbie told us it’s the tenants responsibility, but didn’t realise the difference between a screw in bulb and downlights LOL!
so after a year of not having kitchen lights, and six months of not having a normal bathroom one, the RE is gonna get that fixed for us. Senior PM apologised profusely and said we weren’t the only tenants that were given the incorrect info either.
My new house has had about half the lights changed out for those energy efficient LED light things. On the one hand, I was a bit disappointed about that, because I wanted to put my own energy saver smart bulbs in, but on the other, because they’re directly wired into the mains and there’s no fitting, it’s not my responsibility to change them when they go kaput
But on the third, my experience with those style of lights is that they’re lucky to last a year before they start developing a purple hue and flickering ever so slightly (enough to piss me the fuck off though), but I’m doubtful they’ll change them until they’re completely dead
