Light supplier

[AJS]

I'm after the brightest 20W 12V MR16 bulb for a project. Something around
the 20degree mark. The best I could find was a Phillips part number BUT not
available locally. I've tried all the specialist S.A. lighting places I can
find with no luck. If anyone knows of a specific product OR suppler in Aust
that might be able to help please provide details.

Would a luxeon LED suit your application?

Don't know. Needs to be around the 15-20 watt min or equivalent and last
time I looked none of the current LED's offered that much light and it would
be prohibitive to use that many LED's.. Love to go LED but....

** What is so terribly wrong with a 12 volt " PAR36 " pinspot lamp ??

Not very bright, fragile and a bit larger than I want.

** I think your first two claims are false.

If you can point me towards a specific product or part number that is
brighter than the equivalent MR16 then I might take an interest and see
how long they last in the application.

** Here is a 12volt , 36 watt 2000 hr, very narrow spot halogen version of
the PAR36.

Many others exist too - some with 67,000 candlepower !!!

You will have to modify your very strict requirements.

** I think your first two claims are false.

You think or you know? Find me one that's as efficient as the MR16's (I'm
not talking about the junk ones) and I will consider them. I suppose I can
just carry a spare or two and not worry to much about the shorter life.

** Here is a 12volt , 36 watt 2000 hr, very narrow spot halogen version

I need around the 20Watt mark. If I was after 35+watts then I wouldn't have
a problem with getting a MR16 product.
Any specs on this unit? As you should know, there is a HUGE difference in
output between products with the same specs.
So without a part number or specs I have no way of knowing if that product
is junk or offers something comparable to a MR16 Unit.

Local supplier? If I wanted to import them I wouldn't have a problem getting
what I am after. I was hoping to find a local supplier which is why I made a
point of it in my post.......

@20Watt? Got a link? I've got some 100000 candlepower spotlights here. If
only they were 20 watt.....

You will have to modify your very strict requirements.

Why? Because you are unable to find something that meets my criteria? The
products are out there, I'm looking for a local supplier. Since I can't find
one here I was asking if anyone knew some decent Aust based ones OR knew of
other products that fit my criteria.

** I think your first two claims are false.

** It is my opinion - after doing some research.

Find me one that's as efficient as the MR16's

** Err - define " efficient" ??

** Here is a 12volt , 36 watt 2000 hr, very narrow spot halogen version
of the PAR36.

I need around the 20Watt mark.

** Be nice if you explained what you power source is and why the strict
limit.

Any specs on this unit?

** I supplied a URL ?????

As you should know, there is a HUGE difference in output between products
with the same specs.

** Really - even when the beam angle, colour temp and candlepower are all
the same ??

So without a part number or specs I have no way of knowing if that product
is junk or offers something comparable to a MR16 Unit.

** I supplied a URL ?????

Oh look ee - here it is !!

Little sucker nearly ran away !!!!

http://www.1000bulbs.com/product.php?product=1096

Local supplier?

** I suspect you can source them here - have you tried?

If I wanted to import them I wouldn't have a problem getting what I am
after. I was hoping to find a local supplier which is why I made a point
of it in my post.......

** Lets get over the PAR36, halogen or standard and 36 watt hurdles
rst - eh ???

Many others exist too - some with 67,000 candlepower !!!

@20Watt? Got a link?

** I supplied a URL ?????

I've got some 100000 candlepower spotlights here. If only they were 20
watt.....

** You still need to say what life span you must have.

You will have to modify your very strict requirements.

Why?

** Because the laws of physics seem to be agin you.

Because you are unable to find something that meets my criteria?

** Dunno what all your criteria are - yet.

The products are out there, I'm looking for a local supplier. Since I
can't find one here I was asking if anyone knew some decent Aust based
ones OR knew of other products that fit my criteria.

** Dunno what all your criteria are - yet.

Maybe you care to be more co-operative with folk trying to help you out for
nothing ?

Just a suggestion.

Tried these guys - it's usually best to visit their counter in person.

Doh - unless you live in SA!

Looks like stores are in WA/Vic/NSW/QLD. I imagine they'd still be
interested in swapping your cash for their goods via phone/email.

** Try SSPA in Sydney on 9584 9999.

Got large stocks of PAR36 pin spots and MR16 lamps.
