What u think?We bought those stuff ourselves becoz we wanted lights of special designs. Balestair has many shops and offer a great variety. If you were to get t5, should try getting philips set with holder, its more lasting. Anyway, dont feel obligated to buy. Check out the prices first and have a feel of how much downlights cost, and t5 cost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
