    Default LED spotlights for photos on wall

    HI,

    I'm looking for spot lights to illuminate pictures hanging on the wall. I'm currently using sylvania PAR 20 which is a halogen 50 watt bulb with a 10 degree beam. I would like something similar in an LED light to save heat and power.
    For, example web searching, I found these:

    But I am concerned about the color of the bulb. Does anyone have experience with LED bulds of this type, and if so, what do you recommend?

    For accurate color rendition, you want a full spectrum or daylight bulb with a color rendition index (CRI) of 85 or higher; 90 is better. No bulb in your reference is suitable. You might also look at CF bulbs.
