[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 509138, member: 250"] Any fitting that looks nice, within your budget and has a replaceable LED lamp will be suitable.... Integral, non replaceable lamps are one of the most stupid design concepts of the modern world.. There is a vast selection of GU10 LED's in all sorts of flavour for; Lumens, Beam angle, Kelvin, Lifespan/warranty, Brand, Cost.. etc.. So its far better to select a suitable lamp for a fitting, than have to keep replacing complete fittings.. If a customer has supplied their own lights I will install them.. But it is not economically viable to have to keep dancing back to the customer to swap out warranty failures.. (Especially if one or two warranty replacements suddenly look out of place with a "matching set" of six lights.. when the design has changed slightly, or the finish looks distinctly less faded than the originally installed lights!) Except for the odd single external security light, where a replacement items doesn't have to match with anything, I stopped supplying fittings with integral LED lamps many years ago.. Its a similar problem with security lights with integral PIR sensors.. pain in the bum.. Much less hassle if you keep all key items as separate replaceable items in the event of a fault.
