Regarding taking pictures, i've already started taking some snapshots of the projection against various walls, of the existing state, even before the new gtlobes arrived.

I also have downloaded an app for my phone which will hopefully give some measurable (but not calibrated) difference in the Kelvin's between the existing and these new ones. I already have apps for LUX readings.

Annoying thing is that this week is probably not going to give me a chance to get them installed.😠

With the LED's, the serious problem I saw was with the projection pattern. It was all screwed up by the globes. And as I said, I was not going to be the test pilot.

As for differences with the previous gen [sarcasm]these new ones are rated at 6200 while the old ones are a measly 6000 thats a whole 3% more blue...[/sarcasm] In reality, I think the difference would be that OSRAM found a way to make them cheaper (to them). I also noticed that the originals actually state the lumens, while the gen 2's don't have that stated (at least on PowerBulbs web site). So I would also guess that they lowered the total lumens some small indiscernible amount in the process.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
