Are these for your own home, for a customers home, a shop, restaurant? Where they are going to be fitted is was matters, if domestic a lot comes down to what room and customers taste, if commercial then there are variations as well, you'd never fit Cool White (4000k) in a restaurant for example.

you would in the kitchen
 
I tend to use JCC or similar fire rated GU10 fittings and Robus 5W dimmable LED GU10's for domestic.

That way if the LED's fail in a few years there is no worry about the fitting being discontinued.

I doubt any customers will be willing to pay for the job twice. Covering for warranty failures should be part of your price mark up, and also a good reason to only fit good quality products in the first place.


That may be, but is all your work guaranteed for 7-10 years?

mine's a year. After that, unless they're very polite, it's chargeable! I'm running s business not a soup kitchen ......

They can take it up with the manufacturer themselves if it's after a year. Not our responsibility to maintain their own fittings.
 
I agree, I would guarantee my work, but if the fittings fail, then the company can supply replacement but I won't be changing them all for nothing.
 
I swear by the Aurora M10's but even with those I only offer a 1 year guarantee. After that its between the customer and Aurora. You cant guarantee these things for the sorts of lengths of time that the manufactures talk about. If they want to guarantee them for 7 years then that's there look out not mine!
