If you dont get any on here, they are only cheap from Smith's Electrical Supplies on Tower Road, I bought some the other week, and I bought the Daylight ones, and they where cheap.

That's what I did when I needed a load of new 8ft ones.

You can get adapters but they're a bit hit and miss.

I got my 6ft ones from toolstation by lairds, about 50 quid for a pack of 10, think they also sell singles.
