    whatever next!

    11 for £1 and you complain they aren't any good? jesus...

    well it was better i found out the easy way.........the lights were still in the same box that they were shipped from hong Kong in...individually packed in smaller boxes inside this one.

    so i wasn't the first one disappointed with them.

    like ..i could have been the first........imagine if id had paid £6 each for them the hard way.

    the post was just to say ....that not all LEDs are the same .and beware, something that looks good may not be all that good.

    still looking for the cheap Chinese torches .i can really do something with those ..they are excellent. VFM AAAAAA+++++

    If i manage to find some will post here on the installation results.

    all the best.markj

    Even I believe that LED bulbs are getting better. I'm using one now for 5 years and nothing seems to have changed with it. And the energy consumption isn't really that high at all.

    Can anyone recommend a good, reasonably powerful LED GU10?

    Don't want it too narrow a beam, and would like warm ideally.

    Also looking to buy off ebay as they kindly sent me a voucher recently.
