You can never have enough Volvos!
Niel: The issue with a white LED is that it is not that easy to produce white and keep it cool so in a traditional bulb fitting and white LEDs you are limited to about 10W (~75W incandescent), but with blue and phosphor your efficiency goes up.

Well I learnt something, I always thought white LEDs were UV plus phosphor, but according to Wikipedia most are blue plus phosphor.
But what do you mean by "traditional bulb fitting and white LEDs" as apposed to blue and phosphor?

richms: Multiple led downlights make horrid shadows with many hard edges overlapping. Approval only needed for resale if they are not permanantly installed.

Niel: I've got a 50W warm white LED at home. Nice and bright, but it is only the LED and needs a heat sink + fan. It is actually an array of LEDs potted onto an aluminium/copper plate. Cost was about $40 from China.

Nety: I am running a trial with a GU10 5W high power bulb at the moment. It is on a four bulb strip light in our kitchen.

So far I am impressed. Colour is very similar to the existing halogens and brightness is same or slightly more.
