Watch out - the Colour Resolution Index for these is >80. You want >95 to not be an annoying light that you can't read under and food looks odd under! They are cheap for a reason.

It's not all about the light output or colour temperature, CRI is what really matters and makes it feel like the incandescent bulbs of old.

It's a bit nerdy but it's why you're never really happy with the current offering of cheap LEDs

Wedding venue wanted £100 to supply a dozen led candles for the church, just got them here for £20, AND I get to keep them! AWESOME! Thanks :smile:

No, I don't and I have no connection to them except having bought their products on recommendation from a friend.

It is possible for someone to have an honest opinion on something without an ulterior motive, you know. You'll note that in my initial post I made no mention of the company in question and only gave it out in response to a direct request - and even then I made a joke about how expensive they are. But you probably think they work for them too!

To assume I did it for anything other than to help others on this forum says more about you than it does about me.

Thanks ordered 5 was off to buy at weekend saved a few quid there :smile:

Don't see anywhere to enter the code...

someone came up with a bright idea on this post!

Thanks ordered some...

5.25% Top Cashback too.

Thanks! Ordered some light bulbs.

Ordered 3 for the computer room. Would get more but want to see how they do first, never used LED. Hopefully they still have some left by the time these arrive, but I doubt it!

Thanks just ordered a couple, great deal

Ordered some, thanks! Heat added.

superb deal. hot. thanks op

Ordered 5 of 6 Watt B22 (Bayonet) Standard Shape - Cool White - (dimmable) 99p delivered

Thanks!

ordered. Thanks

Thanks OP took 9

Is e27 the same as small ES? And do dimmables work fine in non-dimmable setups? Thanks

Watt brightness are they in old money?

Thanks

Good price = I got a pack of 12 7w LED bulbs from Ebay @ £1.15 each from this seller ( prices have gone up slightly since then but the 5w work out as less than £1 each ; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272250630217

It was the cheapest I could find at the time

thank you. got two packs of the GU10 ones. i don't need it for a while as i already have some at home but too cheap to miss. :smile:

Didn't really need anymore but bought 13. Thanks

Hi stupid question I know but;

1. 100 watt standard bulb - what is the equivalent bulb in led spec?
2. 60 watt standard bulb - what is the equivalent bulb in led spec?

Any help appreciated everyone, thanks

Dang. No e14 for cheap.

Good find. Ordered 8 of the led solar candles for 99p each, original £8. Good for gifts.

Led filament bulbs are more efficient A++ compared to some LED lamps which are either A or A+
and since you will probably have these for a loooooooooooooooooong time, it might worth considering spending more on the efficient ones with lower electric use. check at least lumens not watts when comparing.

Are these OK with Smart lighting or do they flicker? Thanks

Cheers. Ordered a few things. Also had good service from LED Hut and the 5 year warranty is good

Just ordered some R50 LED equivalent bulbs as mine have just this minute blown. Cheaper than screwfix and free delivery. Cheers!

B22's all gone - damn

Good post OP

what? more than 1 just blew? hardly believable

wont let me order

Cheers op, got 3 dimmable gu10s for £6 and a couple quid of extras. Bargain.

I just ordered some ? Try again

thank you

Thanks for the post. Just ordered two bulbs

Seems their strongest LED is a 70w equivalent. I'll bookmark the site If i want a spotlight or open an opium den!

Great find ! thanks

Don't forget cashback.

Thanks just been looking and the best price I could find was £3! Although that was for a 7w bulb, but even the 6 and 5w bulbs weren't as cheap as this, anything less than 6w is a bit too dim for my liking.

Does daylight mean cool white? We want bright white.Sorry not to sure hence asking.Also G9 is selling on this site for a usual price anyone know of any other place selling cheaper..thankyou

Thanks OP ordered 18 golf ball type to replace normal bulbs in lounge. Best price I have seen for these.

well done just ordered ten at a cost of 9.90 but will save allegedly 810 a month on bills in theory so make that back 10fold over the year

what is the normal bayonet equivalent size code?

Out of stock

Fair play to LED Hut. 21 hours from order to delivery. Seriously impressed.

I've been getting mine from Poundland for a few years now. For a pound. XD

worst quality bulbs ever. i was recommended this company by someone a while ago and i spent hundreds of pounds only to have them fail one after another (different bulbs / different fittings / different electrics) so the bulbs are bad quality.

Annoying the site doesn't show dimensions of the bulbs, most bulbs don't fit in my light fixture, i need to know the size before i can buy.

Even ebay sellers list the sizes.

Been switching to these

Good info.

Do you have a link (regardless of price) on good LEDs which conform to the CRI you quote. I was about to replace a a whole shedload of GU10's in kitchen/diner and would rather have something I'm happy with for the next 5+ years than save money and be annoyed every time I cook. I'd be looking for a warmer white rather than bight harsh white - and dimmable, I'm happy to change the dimmer switch.

Thanks.

Well, you said regardless of price! These have CRI in the high 90s and give a light I've never seen from anything other than incandescent before.

The sort of company we should be supporting too - UK based with ethical business practices. 3 year warranty and 1 year free returns.

Although they only replace 35 watt bulbs, a great price if you need one for a lamp! Thanks!

Code doesn't work!

great find, LED bulbs are so cheap now, I bought some years ago at £7 each

For LED light noobs: Just remember cheap ones often dont support dimmers and can buzz when used if you havent upgraded your dimmers to LED compatable ones which are pricey.

Stupid question but do LED bulbs ever stop working?

(Besides when the light's off etc. for any smartasses out there)

Quoted lifespan for some is 25,000 hours.

Other than defective / overrated ones, like a set of poundland 5W candle that all died pretty quick, they last pretty well.
Generally not bothered by switching cycles (which put a lot of load on incandescent or fluorescent), the LEDs do eventually age, losing some output. They can die due to overheating, the electronics in them can give out, but they are as reliable as any other electronic component.

They do not have the inherent mortality of incandescent (where the filament is deliberately weakened to cause it to break rather than continue to lose efficiency) or fluorescent where the emission mix will eventually burn away (more so with starting, particularly poor starting - electronic one-shot starting gets better life out of them)

Not heard that one before. There is compromise between efficiency and lifetime of incandescent bulbs, but the filament isn't deliberately designed to break at a certain age.

Arrived yesterday, with a small packet of Haribo in the box!

FDW free delivery code is not working anymore...does anyone has a new one?

FDW code is working, ( I just used it myself) but only for orders of £15.00 or more. I ordered a box of 5 x B22 9W, warm white, and one of the 99p sale golf ball ones to make the order up to just over £15.00, and got free 48hr delivery.

That's actually a good idea! Congratulations, also :smiley:

I did the same for Christmas - it's definitely a good idea

Wow bargain

Gonna get on this

FDW code didn't work for free deliver

Have to get 16 bulbs now to get free delivery

It wasn't just myself that received haribo's then!

Beware of their delivery. They use a **** delivery company who will throw it in front of your house, if you are not around. If you are away for weekend or so, then, LED Hut have a 3 day policy. So, you cant even claim your lost goods if you report to them after 3 days.

Fitted one today and it screeches like mad! Not tried others yet
