Beaver platinum replacement bulbs

My 35W bulb has died. Bought a tesco 99p one, it works but its beam is extremely wide. Anybody know where I can get a spot beam one or a not so wide angle one - cheap.

If not, I suppose I'll have to get a 'proper' one from beaver.

Thanks

Nick

I think its a Beaver job. I went to B&Q and found they only had the wide beam ones, they were OK but I did miss the narrow beam on poor vis dives.

I got one from B&Q but that was a while back - may depend on store size. Have you tried Maplins?

Sounds like the same issue I have with the tesco ones. Haven't tried maplins, will do.
