arfur mo Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 has to be said the later LED replacements are far brighter. in our lounge we have a 5 arm ceiling light, very ornate. we had 5 x 60 watt bulbs originally, then swapped out to halogen low energy candles which stopped banging the fuse every time a bulb went. last year one exploded as wife switched on, throwing glass shards everywhere. These were bought from TLC. I just can't have that, so have now been replaced with 5 x 5 watt LED candle bulbs @ £18 each, bit expensive but should last 25 years or more, at least won't bang fusses or explode. would not claim they as bright as the halogens, but i also noticed due to less heat you don't get those dark marks on the ceiling above either, so another small bonus .

datadiffusion Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 We paid £4 at IKEA, interestingly they seem to have quietly stopped selling those 5W ones now just 3W... That's progress for you! I like TLC, not always the absolute cheapest but a non-nonsense website, 'free' delivery and friendly staff in Bristol at least! So, I've decided to take my work back underground.... to stop it falling into the wrong hands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
