I just wanted to check in with people here and see if the prices for these lights are good/not so good. I came across this website a while ago and besides selling tons of stuff cheap and all items including free shipping - they have an entire section based on LED lightbulb replacements.

They have stuff ranging from multi watt LED units to 12v automotive light replacements but not much of an idea of which of anything is worth the price.

    They used to be a favorite dealer for members of the CPF (Candle Power Forums--actually where I learned about this forum).

    However, over the last year--there have been more issues with poor shipping and such.

    I have never used them--and only know about them what I have read.

    Check around see if you want to try them or not... Very good pricing for Hong Kong lighting, flashlights, and stuff...

    I also like http://www.ledwholesalers.com/store/ It looks like they sell a lot of the same items, but led wholesalers has a couple of different ones as well.

    I have bought from both and never had a problem, but as BB said over on CPF some people have reported that if an order is lost they wait like 8 weeks to make sure it's really lost and shipping seems slower from them.
