FWIW I replaced a 150W linear halogen with a 30W LED flood[1], since it

I did similar but following advice from a denizen of this group I paid
about a fiver for two of the cob lights direct from aliexpress and
mounted them on an offcut aluminium extrusion clipped to the ceiling.
All run off an earthed 3 pin plug.
