In my kitchen I have 4x 50w/12v halogen ceiling downlighters controlled from a 500w Richmond dimmer module on a grid switch. The same dimmer also controls 4 transformers running 8x 20w/12v halogen under cabinet lights (6 on one side of the kitchen, 2 on the other side - either side of hob). 2 other dimmers on the same grid control other sets of ceiling lights. All installed by a pro during an extension build 3 years ago - and very good he was too
All works fine, but the cabinet lights (supplied by the kitchen co) are a pain in the a*se – bulbs fail frequently, fittings are poor so replacement bulbs difficult to fit, and the fittings run very hot. I’ve not been able to find any halogen fittings that are much better, so what I’d really like is to replace them with LEDs for all the cabinets.
Question is: where can I find dimmable LED transformers/drivers that can be fitted to the lighting circuit as a straight swap for the existing units? My Google searches have left me stumped.
Any help much appreciated!
