   Have you ever seen a CREE LED?  I've got a load of GU10 CREE LED spots and   
   they're better than the 50W halogens they replaced.  6W in, 50W out, and to my   
   eyesight they look more like 75W out, and a whiter light too.  And they don't   
   keep tripping the    
   circuit breaker when they go, or making the fitting to hot to touch which is   
   worrying next to a wood panelled ceiling.
