Hi everyone, had to sign up again although I've been a member since 2008. Lost my password plus email provider (Orange) which has closed down.
I have an outdoor hi lo lamp which has stopped working. I replaced the halogen bulb with this http://www.screwfix.com/p/halogen-gls-light-bulbs-es-46w-3-pack/8042k?_requestid=283130halogen dimable bulb (I tried all three) but it wouldn't come on at all.
I then tried a dimable LED bulb. https://cdn2.ledhut.co.uk/media/cat...08d6e5fb8d27136e95/e/2/e27-can-5w_box-new.jpg This one is permanently on day and night and most confusingly it dims when it detects movement!
Is there a special bulb for these lamps other than a standard dimable one? I don't want to change the whole fitting cause it's been a reliable little lamp for 15 years (unlike all the LidldeAldi ones I've had which fail or rust away here in sunny Newquay!
