Lightbulb What do you think of these?

I found these whilst looking at lighting:

LED lights

UKayed Stick N Click Bright White LED Lights 3 Pack: Amazon.co.uk: Kitchen & Home

No mains required, and some models last for up to 600 hours (50 days) per 3 batteries.

So it is very cheap, but are there any effects from using LED's?

Any opinions will be much appreciated

Thanks

LED lighting is ideal as they give off no heat.
The draw back to battery operated is the cost of the batteries and the fact that they dont ever run as long as stated at full brightness.
Also a lot of them aren't all that bright.

I supply LED stick on lights with ultra bright LED's in red, blue, white and U.V. but also supply some which will also run from a mains supply which costs next to nothing to run and will always maintain full brighness.

It depends on the type, there are the stick on type, strip type, strip type with a dimmer control and also multiple colour types where you can swith between different colours with or without a dimmer control.
They start from about £6 delivered with mains facility.
