Re: Megaman LED 7w GU10 Warm White



Hi Mark,

I'm not really helping, but here's another option:

http://www.superflare.co.uk/buy.html

Slightly cheaper than that megaman in quantity, slightly warmer, wider
viewing angle. Lower wattage, but claims the same lm as the megaman. One
of my colleagues bought 50 of the non-dimmable superflare about a year
ago and is super happy with them (the scottish government have a
wonderful scheme where they'll give you 300 quid towards any LED
lighting you install!).

[Just to be upfront: I went to university with one of the guys involved
in superflare, so you could view me as biased. But I really do have a
colleague that's very happy.]

Cheers,

Joseph

and jumped all over the place).
