Default LED's - pleased with them

The only problem that I've had is with the angle of beam coverage. We
have GU10 mini reflector lights in the bathroom (three aimed vertically
downwards through different parts of the ceiling) and in the kitchen
(five on a horizontal strip so each one can be aimed individually).

When we changed from tungsten to LED we found that there were dark
patches in between the areas lit up by each lamp, and a much sharper
cutoff at the edge of the beam.


I don't know what beam angle your LEDs are but FWIW I've found those
with 120 degree or wider better in those circs - assuming glare ain't
going to be a problem.
