    Saw B&Q had a clearance sale on various LED light bulbs. Picked up a few.

    1008 lumen E27 18w were e7 for a pack of 4. I think this is the equivalent of a 75w light bulb. Seems like a great deal to me. Not only do you save on purchase but you also save on energy costs..

    Diall is b&q's own brand.. Sounds like a decent price

    I think the 18w 1008lm ones are CFL not LED

    I think so too, since 18W is very high for LED and I would expect more light output. I have given up on CFLs, had far too many fail over the years, still have a 10+ year old regular bulb in one room. Very happy with the LEDs I have gotten, though too soon to do a lifespan comparison.

    Not near a B&Q but got someone to check Athlone, no sign of them there.

    €7 for 1 Led.
