IKEA & Halogen lamps
Probably not new news but IKEA are doing a pair of 50w 12v Halogens for £1.99 and a pair of 35w 12v Halogens for £1.50. Not yet tested underwater but cheapest I've found so far.

All the best,

Ian

Watch the colour from them, some of the cheap ones have a very yellow/brown tone underwater.

I buy my bulbs from Rapid www.rapidelec.co.uk 80p for a 50W halogen bulb, nice and white too.

Will try one this weekend hopefully and will report back findings. Mind you the light might just blend into natural surroundings in that case!

Thanks for the link though, will save that just in case..
