Need some bathroom lighting a.s.a.p for 2 bathrooms we are starting this week. Probably will go for some kind of recessed spotlight similar to the pic below. Anyone recommend a supplier who will sell me the right types for bathrooms?

We got ours from here

I think they were about £5 a downlight. Oh, and make sure you get the ones which don't need a transformer!

How many of those spots would I need for a bathroom say 4m2?

Also are you ok to just wire them using existing wiring for a single ceiling light?

Sorry for the simple questions!

Mine are 240 volt low 35 watt bulbs I've installed 5, therefore 5x35 = 175 watts total so no more power than an old 200 watt bulb, and yep used the original wiring.

Depends which spots. At least 4.
