They are called LED light bulbs. They consume much less than the Energy Saving bulbs. The quality of the light is a bit rubbish to be honest so I usually get the 6W (equivalent to 50w) or 9w (equivalent to 90w) ones but still not as good.
It's MR16 LED Bulb with 60 SMD which is equivalent of a 50W normal but consumes only 5.5W and the working voltage is 12V. 240V is the input and 12V is the output of the Transformer.
You can find it here...
200C? really?! that's super hot! the bulb is low energy bulb so I didn't expect it to get hot much but I'll try it again and see whether I can touch after being left on for 20m.
Thanks,
It's been there like this when we bought the house 3 years ago.
Thanks, this sounds like a reasonable approach. I'm assuming the transmitter and the connectors should all go into this box as well as the Downlighter? or doesn't it matter?
I've put some insulation between my rafters in the loft and I reached the Downlights and their wires, etc and I read I shouldn't put insulation on them although the insulation material is not flammable and also the energy saving bulbs don't generate much heat (9w bulbs)?
