I suspect you may be putting people off with the tone of your replies. Just my opinion. Daz

Give the guy a break...

As someone else has mentioned what about CFLs spots?...or speak to your wholesaler and see what they come up with, I've installed some fire rated tight space ones by ROBUS, look into them think they where 3.75 inches in old money...may of made that up though...

Yes. Please can people just read the original question and try give me a helpful answer. LEDs are a no no and yes I know halogens get hot, thats why i want one that would be suitable like the ones i fit in the past that had a rubbery costing and yes i know it is notifiable. Just proper help please

No LEDs no lighty.

Never seen any with a rubbering coating either.

Only option is to try and find a fitting that is suitable to mount on a flammable surface and use CFL lamps. Then let your very awkward customer change them for halogens him/her self.

Your only other option (as stated above ) is CFL lights. These do not get so hot, but you should try them for an hour or two in some PVC to see.

I don't think anybody knows what type

the ones i fit in the past that had a rubbery costing

are. In any event you'll have to make sure they comply with Building Regs especially those regarding the passgae, or non-passage, of moisture.

Have you considered LEDs?

 

[telectrix]

he has but his customer won't have them. IMO, he's had the best advice available , but would rather insult us, so that's my last comment on the subject.
