Default R63 Reflector bulbs

Easy you may reply

BUT

I am after some energy saving ones!

I currently have 13 of the power hungry 60W things around the house, and
feel it would be far better if I replaced them all with an energy saving
equivalent (6 of them are in the kitchen, and seem to be always on!)

I have googled and googled until I am sick of googling, but all I can seem
to find is a 5w one (30w equivalent) which is way off the mark!


This one ?

I'd agree - 5W is going to be very feeble.

I need them to have at least 650 Lumens of light output, and have an ES/E27
cap

Is there such a thing out there!?


I've not seen any. You might get halogen equivalents. Or you could save
some money on bulbs if not electricity and go for Screwfix's long-life
variety (I have a stock and they do last significantly longer).
