Cheap downlights plenty available, you might be able to price match at other stores. Beware it’s only 70mm not 90mm

Bunnings usually won't price-match themselves especially on clearance items
Not true. I've managed a lot of discounts this way.
Interesting, I've never been successful price-matching Bunnings themselves. I guess at the end of the day, it up to the employee at the checkout.
Yeah, get on to the floor manager, they're the one with the authority.
Sometimes you have nasty employees, just write a review afterwards.
That's still twice as expensive for a function that you might not need. and also DETA
6w 500 lumens is pretty piss weak. Nothing wrong with a 70mm cutout though if the light is good quality, in fact 70mm makes for a much nicer light.
None of mine are 90mm. I used to have higher lumens but they burned my eyes.
Best lighting decision we have made was to put a dimmer on our LED downlights. Makes such a difference in usability.
these are dimmable
I used to have higher lumens but they burned my eyes.
So you never go outside?
Personally, I'd avoid such weak lights as you need twice as many.It's quite the opposite, I found out that because I was so used to the higher lumens, my eyes need higher brightness to function. So when I switched to philip hue, it wasn't bright at all. Additionally I have to now turn my laptop and other device brightness to full. I had possibly 800-1100 lumens cool white , wasn't sure as I've thrown the bulbs away.
in fact 70mm makes for a much nicer light
isn't that a subjective opinion?
I filled my house with the slightly bigger one a couple years ago, 58 or so… Luckily dimmers throughout as there's way to many. No idea why the original builder did so much, albeit they had old fluoro globes before that kept burning out.
These are also $5 at the Majura Park store. Bought two on the weekend to replace the lights in my garage. They are very weak and I'll need two more.
They look good though.
Clearance Stock, might have been replaced by the Arlec 6W Tri Colour Dimmable LED Downlight
I doubt it, Bunnings usually won't price-match themselves especially on clearance items.
