Title: Light Bulbs
Post by: Barman on January 23, 2014, 05:19:50 PM: Got some of those new LED bulbs today...

These ones... (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Long-Life-Lamp-Company-replacements/dp/B006UR5IUY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1390497417&sr=8-1&keywords=gu10+led)

They are staggeringly good! lol:

Got some a few years ago (we have loads of GU10 lamps) and they were shite...

These are simply amazing!

Just we don't get them from Amazon whistle:

:thumbsup:

Someone in Germany was selling them as "heat globes", think they might have stopped him though

If there's any piece of gubberment interference that gets me most angry for it's utter stupidity and arrogance it's the bollocks over low power light bulbs and every sodding house in the UK being given some (that we had to pay for in our electric and gas bills) and no one with any brain uses.

But the LED ones :thumbsup:

Post by: tel on January 23, 2014, 11:36:56 PM: What's energy saving?

Do you get interest, like ISAs?

Can I keep some for my retirement?

Can I claim for mis-selling in the future?
