Interesting On another note, I was checking out cheap LED's today, after seeing so many expensive models at the HIA Home Ideas Show. Ecosparks coolmax globes impressed me, but not with there prices I thought I'd have a look on ebay and this looks similar, to another Australian LED online website. I can't seem to find it: I found these two ebay items: 15W 5X3W CREE LED DOWNLIGHT + LED DRIVER 900 LUMEN CREE XR-E P4 12W 4X3W LED DOWNLIGHT + LED DRIVER I have not checked if you can use a dimmer with them, I assume not, but they are significantly cheaper than what I saw today, they're possible affordable, or close to it I've also used CREE globes before in torches, and they're very bright. The 60 and 100 degree beam angle sounds good, but not sure if they'll match what they say on the website. |
