Then I decided to replace the whole units with LED floodlights. biggest
mistake I ever made!

Now when the LED floodlight fails, I find I *have* to replace the *whole*
unit, I cannot replace the PSU part or the LED array only.

I also find that the cable entry point is at the top so I now frequently
find that they fill up with rain water and pop the circuit breaker!

Maybe youre mounting them the wrong way up?

hardly, there is a single metal casing where the LED array is on the underside and the cable entry hole is on the top side.

If I make the cable entry hole at the bottom, the LED array would be pointing up to Heaven!

see the following:

You can see the cable entry gland... I have my LED floods pointing downwards to avoid annoying the neighbours but that makes the cable gland face the rains from heaven!


A new halogen Tube can be had for around a pound, a whole new LED
floodlight is 30 quid upwards

How much light do you *really* need? Plenty of much cheaper ones available.
