Hi guys...I'm not a spark but can I ask your advice.

Hi I have some lights on my stairs that I need to get some replacements for but I can't find anything suitable. I'm looking for some led lights about 30mm wide that I can directly replace for the existing lights. can anyone suggest anything please thanks
I just need something clearing up as I have not done domestic wiring for a good few years now.
If I fit LED down lights that have no replaceable bulbs so can’t be over loaded, do I need to fit the in intumescent hoods for lights going into the loft or just some sort of device to keep the...
Hi what's the best way to change ceiling roses to downlights I've seen the click flow plug connectors not looking for cheap way just best way as I usually don't do this kind of work? I've got two lights in my kitchen at the moment which are just normal ceiling roses and I ideally want 8 new...
Anybody fitted any of these yet? Appears they have a detachable connector, greater lumen output than the JCC6, and slightly cheaper than the 10.

Simple question what are the requirements for fitting downlights?
Do they need to be fire rated or with a hood or can they be fitted without?
This is causing much discussion at work.
Hello,
I've got a load of recessed down lights to fit. We have been thinking of going JCC Firegaurd LED6, but we need the tilt version for this project, which will come quite expensive.
Now, at the whole salers we've just been looking at Enlite E8 and they're significantly cheaper, with great...
Does anyone know what brands make downlights wit push fit connections? looking for speed when it comes to fitting them 2 x 1.0mm cables. Fire rated down lights not integrated fittings. Cheers :thumbsup:
Question more for domestic lads.
Is there still a big demand for Downlights in kitchens or is the fad dying out now.
I'm redoing my kitchen soon and debating down lights or not as don't want it to show its age 10 years if the craze dies out
Cheers ppl

Anyone got any experience with these fittings? I see they're going for ridiculous prices so I'm sort of wary of trying them as they seem too cheap. £14 per fitting inc. the dreaded... Thanks!
Folks,
Sunday afternoon chilling and having a little thought to myself about the jobs ahead this week. I got thinking, I have a job this week invloving downlights. Simple job really, but thought I would see how everyone else does it.
