My church is planning on changing all of their fixtures to led. They got a quote for retrofit lamps that have the driver in the lamp. Are these of decent quality or should I push them to get new fixtures?
That is one thing I don't like about LED fixtures, something goes wrong with it and they have discontinued it you will be changing others that match it or dealing with one that looks different.My two cents: If you like the looks of the old fixtures than just repace the bulbs. I'v done both types of jobs and other that the obvious cost diferance I prefer just changing out the bulbs. I recently had a job to repair a 5 year old LED parking lot fixture. The manufacturer had discontinued that fixture and we weren't able to buy parts for it either. We ended up replacing the light with one that looked different. That my have been a bigger problem if the light was in a nice space like a church with a bunch of matching fixtures.
By the way, What voltage are you dealing with and what type of fixtures are they? CFL?
