Autosleeper internal spotlights
At long last I can get round to niggly things. I've grown to really dislike the internal spots as they're dim and power hungry. Any ideas for a simple upgrade (not including opening the curtains!)

I removed the entire unit and bought a new 12v spots from Ikea.

No - all dark here. Switch the light on and we will take a look.

Sounds good. I'll venture down to the dreaded IKEA.

Re: Autosleeper internal spotlights
If the fittings have a 'standard' 12v bayonet fitting bulb, another option is to source a direct drop-in multi LED replacement. With a bit of care in selection, I've found these surprisingly good.

Re: Autosleeper internal spotlights
They've got small bulbs - G4 I think and they're rubbish. I had expected mini batyonets

Re: Autosleeper internal spotlights
Much appreciated. Mine would make zero difference in daylight
