Does the job but be aware of different fitting, 9 May 2013

Arrived after 9 days, just protected by a layer of thin foam held on by a rubber band and sent in a plastic bag. The cardboard bulb outers had been crushed - luckily the bulbs were undamaged.
They both work fine and give out that wonderful blue hue that only LEDs can achieve.
The only negative point is they have a fitting unlike the common GU10 bulbs. Now, I know GU10 specifies the pitch and type of the connectors but I was expecting a common type bulb - I should have paid more attention to the photos!

Smart looking, easy fixing, excellent value, 8 May 2013

This is a smart looking up-down light and looks really good compared to the old-style outdoor lights.
Very easy to fit, mark the drill holes directly on the wall through the detachable back-panel. Plugs and screws supplied.

The sensor has three settings, light on time, sensitivity to movement and dusk sensitivity.
It's supplied with two halogens which you can easily… Read more

Nice looking fitment, good heavy quality, 14 Mar 2013

In my opinion this looks much better than the pipe-through-the-wall type fittings where you cover the hole with a cheapish looking cowl.
This screws onto the wall surface with three screws all supplied with plugs if needed.
The rear fitments are standard 15mm compression and the shower bar unit connects to the front.
The only negative is the fact that this fitment freely rotates within the plate so when you have the pipework fitted to the rear and plumbed in, connecting the shower bar means that as you tighten the whole joint will try to turn. i don't ;like the stress this puts on the rear compressiion joint.I think it needs some sort of lock to prevent this. Just my opinion!
