1. A lighting apparatus, comprising:
a base plate;
a driver module disposed on a top surface of the base plate;
a light source also disposed on the top surface of the base plate;
a mechanical switch disposed on the base plate, wherein the mechanical switch is coupled to the driver module, wherein the mechanical switch has multiple states to be selected, wherein the driver reads a selected state to control the light source;
a main housing for enclosing the base plate; and
a manual switch disposed on the main housing, wherein an operating part of the manual switch is exposed outside the main housing to be operated by a user, wherein a connecting part of the manual switch is coupled to the mechanical switch, wherein when a user moves the operating part of the manual switch, the connecting part of the manual switch carries the mechanical switch to change the selected state, wherein the mechanical switch is moved for coupling a different resistor combination to multiple transistors corresponding to different selected states, wherein the transistors respectively determine driving currents supplied to multiple types of LED modules of the light source associated to the coupled resistor combination to emit a mixed light corresponding to the selected state.
