I bought these when they were a lot more expensive. I like them. I bought cool white for the kitchen. A bargain at this price.

I got some LIKE these about a year ago, from Amazon so delivery next day, so if you dont like them send them back, easy. Have a look there may be some brighter, maybe dimmable ones available now.
Thanks for this, I think ours need to be fire rated though as its an open kitchen and diner. Gives me an idea though, will have a look on amazon

Can I swap these like for like with the 50w halogens I have right now or do I need to get a sparky in to also change the driver or something like that? I am in a fairly new build (5yrs old) house and not sure what's there at the moment other than I'm currently using traditional 50w halogen MR16

Being a bit of a numpty... Can I just simply switch these for my halogen lights and not have to change transformers etc.?

It depends on your trasformers wattage rating. See what the transformer /driver says, maybe something like 20-90, would mean you need a minimum of 20 wattts.

I do need the dimmable ones, the reviews do not seem no good. So I am in two minds of buying them.

I'd advise the cool white option in the kitchen and maybe the bathroom (depending on the style and decor) but for living areas I'd say warm white as the light they give off is not as stark or glaring but I suppose you may have to factor in the amount of light fittings you have in the room too.

Ok tried both options. Much prefer the cool white. A much whiter light compared to the yellowish warm white

Good lamps but they are about 5mm longer than a standard MR16 and stick out proud in my cooker hood.
