[QUOTE="Topper, post: 1063095, member: 186250"] I would agree that some halogens do go on for years (the replacement program I have been running with has been going for 5 years) however when using 30W to 40W halogens that adds up considerably especially with the community centre I have been replacing them for the last five years. The 90 halogens there were drawing 2.7KW and are now drawing 300watts for the whole building which at this time of the year makes a ridiculous saving on power with no reduction in visibility, I would still consider it a good investment even if one or two did fail on a regular basis. In my house only the bathroom and kitchen have external low voltage transformers as per regulations [/QUOTE]
