Title: LED lamps in LIDL
Post by: Richie71 on October 10, 2013, 11:40:52 PM
2 x LED lamps in LIDL for a fiver. They run on 3 AAA batteries each (all 6 included) and have a self adhesive removable base. Sorry I haven't got a link, they must have been last week's specials but you should be still able to get them.

If like me, you have a kegerator in a dimly lit, under the stairs, out of the way kind of place they come in handy for those late night beers.  ;D

I saw them the other day. I noticed that the box said that the LEDs can't be replaced.

So I put the box down

Box also says LEDs should last 30,000 hours. Taking 10% of this as being true, 1 of these should last about 8 years if you use it for 1 hour a day. Not bad for €2.50

LEDs in general are pretty indestructable. (Unless you pass too much current through them at once)
