yeah love em - also overides them when the power dips at dusk so you`re burning watts all night

quick word of warning by definition these lights will be outside so any work comes under the remit of part p of the building regs so make sure you notify building control before you start

cool was it a big bang ? lol

unfortunately not...

worked a few times then flickered lots, dimmed & flickered then refused to work again...
