arfur mo Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Im looking to replace a few 500W halogens with led floodlights. Anyone used them or recommend a supplier, thanks just say as yet i have not seen any that match a 500 watt, i'd rate the biggest ones i've seen which i think were 70's as 300 watt ish! ok at 1st floor but a bit narrow and less effective if up in the eaves of a 2 story. if for a client then best warn them, then remmind they are far cheaper to run and should last a lot longer (as long as the case holds out).

MiniMonkey Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 i got some ebay ones and I can confirm, the cheap substitutes are as they are described CHEAP... I re-wired mine internally put an earth to the casing and transformer, re-sealed then wired on a ring with flex and quickfit power connectors... back to a plugtop on a timer they have worked well for nearly 4 weeks ill take some photos.

bandelekurd Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Im looking to replace a few 500W halogens with led floodlights.

arfur mo Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 Avoid the 'warm white' types, unless you want background lighting. Tends to be a very yellow wash, like the early energy saving bulbs.
