they prices are sure cheap, however, assuming that the LEDs are really what they claimed to be. Most are shipped from China, so you can never be sure of the quality as in Ebay, the company names are not stated. Not like in Alibaba, where the company selling the products are known. You can check this link for some info - http://www.alibaba.com/trade/search?Search...roduct_en&fsb=y

The Alibaba look like wholesale for me. So I thaught they don't serve you if you want in small qty.

Anyway the CREE model only avaiable in US and not others country. The famous CR6 downlight is only have 120v. Now thinking how to modify it.

so in alibaba the CREE model is not really CREE?

Look for the voltage. It should have driver which can use on our voltage. Some built in. Some outside. Other is lumens/watt. Higher lumens/watt, more bright and less energy to use.
