Hello Mr Freeman,

Exactly the product that I needed

Exactly the product that I needed, for installing lighting inside a sitting room unit. Very easy to select the right lighting strip and driver on the website. Carefully packaged and safely delivered. Works beautifully. Solved an insoluble problem of replacing 45-year old incandescent tube lights, out of production for decades.

All round great service

BLT has a great range products including older styles of replacement bulbs that are more difficult to source these days. This means I can just replace bulbs without replacing my entire lighting system which is an absolute bonus for me. Ordering was easy and delivery was quicker than expected. Items arrived in sturdy packaging which is good to see when ordering fragile items. Will definitely use BLT again and would definitely recommend.
