RE: Saving money to buy preps
the £5 led bulbs were the 4w and 6w bulbs...not super bright but passable for hall stairs landing littlest room and lamps etc but you need the 10w version for anywhere you are going to read sew do fiddly work....10w which is roughly equivalent to a 100w old style bulb are currently a tenner but are often reduced to £8 or two for £15.
what I have noticed is they only throw light down/forward or up but not all around as a conventional bulb does and there's no heat given off at all...4w on a par with a 40w , 6w = 60w ......420 lumens and 610 lumens respectively.....I'm happy with the results as I can see in real time by my electricity usage monitor the difference the bulbs make.
Nothing is fool proof for a sufficiently talented fool!!!!
