    They had an offer of £50 off orders over £250. It has disappeared from the site so have sent a mail asking if it is still valid. Will split my order in to £251 sets then

        The question has already been asked as well. They also put in a small pack of Haribo's with the samples I ordered so will be asking if I get a bigger bag and can I have the sour ones as well.

              I got 12 of these warm white, dimmable, running in the kitchen. Just a tiny bit dimmer than halogens which is fine. Major plus being the missus can have them on whenever she feels like, even if its blazing sun outside.

                They are the ones I have used too, they are the best ones I've found. Very nearly as bright as 50w halogens.

                  You're running the equivalent of 540W of lighting in your kitchen? Is it a gigantic room or do you just never run them at full brightness for fear of needing sunglasses?

                    I got some of these to test and have them running along side the halogens in the kitchen and I found because of the wide beam angle the actual light at the table level is markedly different which is why I have gone for the ones with a 90 degree angle but more light at the work surface. I am sure once they are in you will easily get used to it. When I say markedly different maybe a little less light but by no means could be considered dim. I just wanted something with a more focussed light like the halogens. Still a great option though.

                      I thought all contractor kitchens and living rooms would need a minimum of 9. Anything less and it would be like having a normal persons room
