The last of my interior lights which need to be replaced with LEDs are the recessed ceiling lights in my AF811. Currently, the bulbs are halogen 20 watt G4's. *EACH* light draws 1.7amps, and there...

About 2 years ago I bough a 3.5W Phillips capsule, put it in my kitchen under the cabinet and it has so far stood the test of time.
To the OP, thanks for the update!
Yeah, the 3.5W Philips capsules were my first attempt at finding a LED replacement which would be close to the 20W halogen which were in my puck lights. I could not use them, the ceramic body of the capsule makes it ever so slightly too large to fit into the fixtures..
So, I decided to make a home made "holder" for a capsule and mounted it under one of my home kitchen cabinets. We often will turn the stove light on (9W CFL) during the evening so we don't need to turn all the kitchen lights on..
Once I mounted the capsule under the cabinet it now is being used instead of the stove light.. Easily gets 5-6hrs each evening, Philips does seem to have their act together on the capsules!
