Thanks for the advice. I returned the LED’s I had bought, so I can’t comment on whether they would have fit with new collars. But having discovered XanRule’s argument in favor of not using LED’s in housings designed for halogens, I’m going to try the bulbs he recommended from Daniel Stein. If those prove satisfactory, great (they’re pretty cheap in comparison to most of the highly rated LED’s, so not much risk). Otherwise, I’ll try the Osrams that XanRules runs but which he insists do not perform as well as the halogens Stein sells. I’ll report back on my experience.
