Have you also checked to see what interference they can chuck out. some are
terrible, one assumes the dreaded switch mode psu.

I'd like to replace all the lamps/bulb in house with LED ones (mains
bayonett fittings).
I bought a couple the other day from Tesco £7 each - and I like the
colour - and the power saving :-) Is that price a reasonable one for
8W LED lamp?
I'd just like to ask if someone can recommend a site to buy such
lamps from? My 'friends' google and ebay has zillions, but don't want
to end up with a stack of fakes. A bit cynical but it adds up to quite
a sum to change them all. Seen a few comments saying Lidl/Aldi LED
lamps are good value and quality.Thanks for any info on this.
OT:
Afaik
the LED lamps really are LED arrays - so I guess there is
some arsenic toxicity risk in disposal? (Minute amounts). And CFL's
have Hg. Just mention this because Sains.s lamp recycling bin is
always crammed full of CFL's - many are smashed!
