LEDlampuista

LEDlampuista is a term used to describe a practitioner focused on LED lighting design and installation. It encompasses expertise in selecting LED sources, drivers, optics, thermal management and control systems to create efficient, high-quality illumination.

The word combines LED with lampu, the Indonesian/Malay word for lamp, and the suffix -ista, indicating a specialist or enthusiast.

Typical tasks include mapping lighting needs, calculating lumens and color rendering (CRI), choosing color temperatures, ensuring flicker-free operation, addressing glare, performing energy calculations, and integrating with smart controls.

In practice, LEDlampuistas work across residential, commercial, and public sectors, and often collaborate with architects, electrical engineers, and building managers.

Etymology and usage: The term is not widely standardized and appears primarily in Southeast Asian online communities and hobbyist networks; it is not an official professional designation.
