    Smallest Light fitting that allows interchangeable bulbs?

    Yes they're a good shout. I was just hoping there'd be something out there that's nice and small but also would let me interchange the bulbs as they're going to be sat in a tiled step. If they fail I cant be bothered pulling em out and having to re-seal/patch up everytime. They'd have to be low...

    Smallest Light fitting that allows interchangeable bulbs?

    what is the smallest diameter light fitting you can get that is ip65 and allows an interchangeable gu10/mr16? or other bulb type thats smaller than that. We're having the tile holes in the steps for a sunken bath today so good to know what the smallest we can get away with without the light...

    Dimmable Low Voltage Downlights For a Bathroom?

    Yes I think that is exactly what we've decided to do, forget about the dimmer and just swap everything out with interchangeable bulbs for each of the 2 zones. Also for the alcoves in there, we're gonna swap the downlights out for those cool led strip ones that come in a sort of strip trunking...

    Dimmable Low Voltage Downlights For a Bathroom?

    Yes, very helpful thanks! I did take a look on the boxes for each of the set of lights but the lumen number I was looking for was different on each box, (one was luminous flux, the other was lumen per Watt) so wasn't entirely sure what the lumens were to be honest. I'll attach the pictures as...

    Dimmable Low Voltage Downlights For a Bathroom?

    thanks, As it's a bathroom, do the downlights have to be the sealed variants where you can't swap the bulbs? Or can you get ones with interchangable Mr16/GU10 that are still ip65 rated? If so, is there a 1w low voltage downlight out there? if not, is there a low voltage 1w gu10/mr16 out there?

    RISCO LIGHTSYS Panel has been disabled remotely??

    Installer is looking into it today - but in the interim I wasn't able to get it to do any sort of comms actually. No emails being sent saying it had been armed / unset etc. But as stated above - as the GSM is currently expired, Im not sure whether the WIFI is working. I suppose I could just...

    RISCO LIGHTSYS Panel has been disabled remotely??

    It's got an IP Module inside it and that's connected to a Wifi bridge (vonets), that wifi bridge was pointed at the router's SSID and has the same password as the router etc. That bit all seems to be working. I have occasionally seen the wifi bridge's MAC address in the 'attached devices' in...

    RISCO LIGHTSYS Panel has been disabled remotely??

    10 years ago I didn't own a house, 5 years ago i'd been burgled 0 times. =P We have cctv already. Yes, it's worth knowing the alarm is going off when im not there. Otherwise I wouldn't have purchased a Lightsys2. Incidentally - do you know the best way to check a lightsys panel is connected...

    RISCO LIGHTSYS Panel has been disabled remotely??

    Yeah I figured as much. Looking at the emails ive got over the past few months, the subscription is confusing to be honest. A company called Security Point have been emailing me asking me to subscribe to continue to use the RISCO app, but as mentioned above the app itself asked me to do that...

    Hi all, Had a RISCO Lightsys2 for a while now, always been great until recently noticing it had stopped giving us status update emails. Logged into the app and was met with this message saying im not authorised to access the site and that i should contact my installer?! Obviously gave them...
