yup they'll be fine. 125W is a light draw (no pun intended).

you can get them cheaper in woodies (i dunno if you have woodies in UK, maybe they're called homebase there i dunno), 3 for 10€ (£. In fact they're probably 3 for a fiver in the UK cause everythings more expensive here in Ireland.

i love you, peace.

As long as your watts don't exceed the marked wattage your fine, but what there is an issue is that too cheap can fail and screw your cycle... luck.
