  • can anyone suggest a supplier of lighting please?

    Hi All

    Customer is wanting lights put up with his fascia and he wants me to send him some options to chose from but he wants them to be very bright but also as small as possible. The shop next door to him has these below but he said they are not bright enough and would like to stay away from trough lights if possible.

    Can anybody suggest a supplier for lighting and advise me which are brighter than which ?

    Any and all help appreciated.

    Cheers

    Warren

    Those look great Rob, have you used them before (the bullet type) and are they good and bright compared to those smaller halogens?

    I’m afraid I sell them to him, put them up and he says they are not bright enough 😕

    I’ve used the bullets, and they are like a 12V halogen spot lamp bulb with a built in transformer in the base. I suppose the higher the wattage the higher the brightness. For example, the things you see lighting up church buidlings are probably 500 watts.

    Warren, they’re bright but the pool of light from one is very small – a bit like you get from shining a torch on a wall.
