atm when i turn on my lights ( about 12 of them ) according to the control panel they are drawing 10 amps , so its time they went and i replaced them with LED's
Most of the current ones are cone shaped 10W Halogens pictured below
From reading different LED threads here i see the best best to get them from is http://www.atenlighting.co.uk/
so i have been looking there and think i have found the right replacement bulb type , but as this is my 1st time buying leds im not sure how much difference there is in light between the two bulb types and also then if i should go for warm white or cool white , to begin with i think ill just order 2 bulbs 1 X warm white and 1 X cool white.
If im happy with the level of light currently in the MH should i replace my existing 10w halogen for

as it suggests this is the replacement for a 10W bulb BUT if i think that the level of light currently in the MH is NOT enough then should i get http://www.atenlighting.co.uk/15led-mr16.html
Does that sound about right ?
Also i take it these will work fine in my MH without having to change anything else.
P.S if 12 of the 10W bulbs were using about 10 Amps as per the control panel , how many amps will 12 if the leds use if each one says it uses 1.6W would that be like 2 amps ?
