Have you tried the MR16 version of those at all? If so, any good?

Thanks,

Paul.

I bought a few LED bulbs over the years and this one is the closest to a
bi=
ght wide angle warm white bulb. They use 29 of the 5050 smd leds which
seem=
to be fairly reliable. (my 21 led versions have lasted 18months so far). T=
hey only drawback is that these bulbs don't come with a glass front like
ot=
hers do, not sure why.=20

Packs of 5 work out =A36.39 each. Not cheap but I calculated a rough
breake=
ven point is 12-18 months depending on usage compared to standard 50w.
They=
are actually slightly whiter than previous warm white bulbs which I prefer=

Sorry for starting yet another one, but maybe things have moved on a bit.
I bought six "9W" GU10s (actually 5W) from The Warm Light Company
earlier t=
his year. At first I thought they were great, and recommended them on here.
They have now all failed, so I'm sending them back for a refund.=20
Can anyone recommend an LED GU10 replacement, in warm white with a widish
a=
ngle, that is as bright as a 50W halogen and will actually last long
enough=
to justify the purchase price?
