  • Anyone know if the driver included drives a LED light? If so, it would be cheaper to buy this and some MR16 LED bulbs.

    • Depends on the LED's you buy. Philips MR16 don't seem that fussy about drivers.

  • Can someone please explain what exactly this is?

    • Thats why I posted it here, waiting for the right department to explain:)

    • As far as I can tell, it is a downlight kit, that you can install in the ceiling. It has a metal cage on the top, which meant to be a safety feature for potential fire hazard. It uses 35w halogen MR16 downlight bulb.

      Can someone please explain what exactly this is?

      You'd never work it out from the OP's ridiculously lazy copy/paste.

      It is cheap and nasty "sealed" 35W halogen downlight kit. The design dates back to the 1990's so I know exactly what it is just by looking at it.

      The chrome plated front clips onto a steel frame in the ceiling. There is a gasket that "kind-of" seals the front to the ceiling which stops moisture getting into the fixture (not that would harm it in any way).

      Above the ceiling it has a metal "hood" which is basically a metal mesh in the shape of a can of baked beans.

      You get a electronic transformer and 35W halogen lamp.

      Theoretically you could put this inside the shower area or over vanity as it is "sealed".

      An MR16 LED in such a device would probably overheat due to poor airflow. But bathroom lights aren't left on for long periods so it wouldn't matter.

      There are better ways to illuminate bathrooms than downlights - in fact it's pretty much the worst way of illuminating such a space since the objective is to see the vertical human body surfaces, not the top of your head.

        Harsh but informative. A pointless product.

      • llama!! You are a sick informative c**t

        • Well, thanks! Nobody has ever called me 'informative' before!

        • @llama:
          What about c**t?

          @d-hunterz:

          Certainly, and quite often also in combination with sick.

  • there is much better product if you can find stocks near to you..
