Lighting suppliers

I need some flush fitting ceiling lights at least 17cm in diameter for my kitchen. I cannot find anything suitable at Screwfix, Gibbs & Dandy or John Lewis.



Suggestions for further investigation welcome.


Did you try

?

I noticed a flyer for Bell flush-fitting lights the other day at the electrical wholesalers, but can't find a URL for them I'm afraid.

My local CEF have some downlighters designed for retrofitting into big holes, they have a big flange! I'm sure others will do them, I can't remember who makes them though.

Good point, thanks.

(Although their web site will not render in Firefox.)

Not cheap, but boy do they have lighting:

You sure? works fine in Mozilla...

(I would try FF, but the computer with that on, just decided to kill itself again!)

Strange, it works ok with Mozilla 1.7.3.

Check something your end! It works fine in FF here.

Strange. Works fine with all three of my RISC OS ones.

I've tried Firefox on the PC card (586) fitted to this machine, but find it slow compared to IE 5.5, which gets me into those sites I can't otherwise access. Hate to actually use an MS product, but in this case it's fine.

I found a decent range at city electrical factors.

17cm is what? 6 1/2"?

That's a luminaire basically in terms of 'wot its called'

Flush fitting is unusual - most are surface mount.

I concur. No problems with FireFox and tlc-direct for me.

Christian.

Sure am. I was *very* confused initially.

I am running 0.7 on Solaris.

I didn't realise it was that old. I'll download a new one.

Nothing like running a 586 as a PC card on the RPC to see how bloated some of the modern PC browsers really are. To add Java to the latest version of Firefox wasn't possible - I'm restricted to about 30 megs of ROM - and that's not enough. But IE 5.5 works fine. ;-)
