I'm looking to replace my kitchen GU10 50W halogens (originally with 50 degree beam) with LEDs. Can anyone actually vouch for a particular make/model being as bright as a 50W halogen? I know from experience that some LEDs are better than others (I have a B&M headlight [with single 3W Cree LED I think?] on my bike which gives out an awesome beam) but given that most marketing blurb is exaggerated I don't trust the claims in adverts. I'm not that bothered about matching the beam angle - I've had to replace the original 50 degree bulbs with 35 or 40 degree ones in the past and it doesn't seem to make much difference.
I don't really want to pay more than £15 for a bulb but might do if I was convinced that it would really fit the bill.
Or as LED technology is developing rapidly should I wait just a bit longer before looking to upgrade?
Thanks Biggles
