Yes, I do.
There are different assessments among them and – as I said – the bathroom is small, not very high and has a sloping ceiling.
No, "only special" has no value in itself and "normal" is by no means inherently bad (there are often reasons for that).
I myself enjoy such reflections and like to share them.
Through the input of fellow thinkers, I have often come up with ideas that I wouldn’t have had on my own.

True… I’m rambling a bit, but "back to square one" is always possible for me as well. (thanks for the remark ;))
In this case I try to weigh reasons against each other and "power at the shower" is part of that.

Currently (after tests) I am looking for an LED spotlight that is as bright as possible and has the smallest possible beam angle (is that how it’s called?).

But the ceiling height above the shower will be over 225cm. I would think that you are not installing massage jets either, so you are legally in the clear and free in your design.

why should I now be convinced by the dangerous, live lamp ;) ? My impression: I am not well received with my thoughts everywhere. :eek: I don't want to bother anyone and ask to be ignored where that is the case. :cool: What occurred to me earlier: when you shower, you pull the shower curtain closed. It could be in the way of indirect light :rolleyes:

You are not supposed to be convinced by the dangerous lamp, but by the fact that it is not dangerous. That is a huge difference

That’s why you should install a ready-made lamp with IP45 at 2.5m height on the ceiling and avoid DIY solutions. I wouldn’t use a very small spotlight with a narrow beam angle, it only creates shadows and causes glare.
