I like these, it looks a good color mix, but how come their low voltage?

All of these globes, operates from a 230V -> 24V step down transformer.

Please forgive me if my choice of my words looks like offensive, while that isn't my intention.

I only working with the European date format (dd.mm.yyyy).

I lives in Israel, which is a 230-240V, 50hz country.

But why here?, most low voltage stuff in the UK is used either as on site contractors equipment, or in swimming pool installations.

I don't know why these globes operates from a 24V supply. But incandscent lamps of low voltage, are way more efficient than 230-240V ones.

Ah right, they also may have a longer life too, the red and the blue/white do go together well though.

I don't know what is the operating voltage of the LED lamps, but the are very dim compared to the incandescent lamps. They aren't glaring at all.

They probably thinks that the LED will save them more energy than the incandescent: Indeed, the first white globe, which both of its lamps replaced by LEDs, have a kerosene lamp light output. A video will follow.

Wouldn`t a Kerosene lamp resemble more of a GLS color?

I meaned that the globe with the two LED lamps, isn't stronger than a kerosene lamp, but of course, it have a different light colour than a kerosene lamp.

As those splitters are almost always parallel wired, the LEDs are running on the same 24V as the incandescent lamp. They look like some of the Ebay special LEDs that have a load of SMD LEDs run in series on a capacitive dropper, so they are probably just 24V variants of the same thing (LEDs in series parallel for string drops of 15V to 20V and only resistors for current limiting).

Old school FTW!
