Re: GU10 LED's

[Kenneth Watt <kwatt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think that's a tad harsh.

Philips is one of the largest producers of browngoods in the world,
probably one of the top five in Europe and they haven't pulled out of TVs
at all. Or anything else I'm aware of.

And, they do make some very good remotes. ;)

The LED Master range I've tested with X10 and they do and don't work. A
single bulb on a din rail lamp module will not go completely off, it sits
dimly flickering.

Several of the GU10 supposed dimmable bulbs are just woeful, I've tried a
few now trying to answer this.

Liquid cooled LED bulbs, same.

So, in essence the answer is the same as it has been for months to the
original question, no.
