LED ceiling light?

At present I have a CFL hanging from a ceiling rose in my bathroom and was thinking of replacing it with this.

Has anyone fitted one of these in their bathroom?

    That's seriously bright for a bathroom at the equivalent of around a 150w incandescent, esp if you already have a shaver light as well.

    don't have nothing like that.

    The present CFL is 11 watts, so back to the drawing board. The bathroom is just 6 feet by 6 feet.

    Why would you want to replace an11w lamp with an18.5 w lamp. Makes no sort of economic sense at all.
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.

    27col - to make it brighter?!
    Anyway, at 3500K colour temp it'll be quite blue I would imagine. You'll look even worse in the morning! Look for 3000K or less for yellow, sunlight like light.
