Lamps were good no 2 ways about it but the ballasts are pretty much all shite. It’s a shame the magnetic version never caught on they would be laughing then or the 20W version that was in development.

I can’t fully comment on this as we never use them here, but the ones I saw in use in Northampton were a really poor choice!
Tiny blinding points of light that put very little on the road surface is how I saw them!
They were slightly better in Cornwall at lower mount heights, but as for the pricing, I doubt cheaper systems from Philips would have ever saved the Cosmo concept, as LED, like it or not, was vastly superior from an energy saving standpoint.
