All,
Have lurked this board for many years and have enjoyed reading / learning through other's experiences...and now I actually have a reason to post!...as follows:
Doing some general contracting in a client's home and have come across this dilemma. Existing elliptically shaped dome in DR ceiling is lamped with a 24v driven system (S1) with ~32 linear feet of 24v5w clear xenon lamps (~200 bulbs). Approximately 4/5 of the bulbs currently require re-lamping, but I'm wondering about either re-lamping to LED equivalents (which don't seem to be available in a non-dimming bulb type), or abandoning this set up and installing an LED tape product alongside. The client has already had us re-lamp entire home with LED fixtures and I'm trying to be forward-thinking here...but I think that I may be over-thinking this. Just trying to do the right thing from both a forward maintenance view and client perspective. Personally, I really like LED products, but also know they are in the early developmental stages still...any thoughts / ideas from others who may have encountered similar situations would be greatly appreciated and thank you.
