On the by Shivani mentioned website
http://www.superbrightleds.com/led_prods.htmthey are mentioned under *Household lighting*.
For 230 Volt, there are two types of fittings
- the normal E27 screw base,and the smaller one E12
- the 2 pins MR16 (which is about 3mm thick, contrary to the 1 mm thick pins
used for 12/24 Volt)
I have tested a type like E27-W3 with just one LED, plus lens.
