Sales of halogen lightbulbs are to be banned in the UK from September,
with fluorescent lights to follow, under government climate change plans.

Time for me to stock up with halogens as I have not found suitable LEDs to replace them.
Two other LEDs have failed in the last couple of years. Not good value.
I do have a flourescent unit but I guess I will swap to a few LEDs rather than replace the tubes.
I still have 1 & 3 spot lights controlled by a dual dimmer. I do not think swapping those will make a saving to me in my lifetime.
I assume the gazillions of flourescent tubes in business locations will slowly replace their tubes with LEDs as and when they fail.
I wonder how the published savings figures stack up in the next few years?
