Hi,
the total wattage should be 70W (7 fittings with a 10W bulb each).
Thank you!
Yes:Would the transformer I was recommended make them dimmable?
It's the transformer that has to be dimmer able, not the bulbs themselves.
Why didnt he just get a dimmer compatible with the transformer you haveHi, my ikea transformer for halogen cabinet lights needs to be replaced as my electrician put them on a dimmer...
That's because he doesn't understand how to do his job properly.I have no idea, but he didn't seem like he understood what I was asking him.
That's because he doesn't know.I asked him several times why these lights flicker instead of dim smoothly, and didn't get a proper answer.
I suggest that neither was¹, nor did, he.I am not an electrician and didn't know the specifics of dimmer-transformer compatibility.
There is a compatibility issue with dimming ELV lighting "transformers" (in quotes because they aren't actually transformers, which is why the problem arises)If there any simple rules you can share with me I would be very happy to educate myself a bit.
