300 watt halogen / Energy Saving Bulb

JOHNPT · 2012-07-11 16:07:24

I have a number of outdoor light fittings which I need to replace with energy saving bulbs - at present there is 300 watt linear halogen bulbs in them. Can anyone recommend an energy saving alternative to these - Eurosales have an energy saving bulb but its only equivalent to 125watts
