How do you mean 'graft' the O-ring and collar over - Just swap them out?? I don't fancy it but the silicone or denso tape may be the last resort! :cry: Whitespirit66 - It is reasonably snug but not as snug as i'd like which i think may be part of the problem? I may see if I can get a...

Hi Hugh Jaleak, It is a Marley Push fit Boss, but I would say your description of the plastic socket and O-ring is what I have rather than the rubber 'plug' type. Which is why I had concerns over the adaptor suggested by Dextrous not sure if it would fit the Boss I have?? Similar to...

Hi all, I need a bit of help I am currently exchanging a single ceiling light in my bathroom for 5 12volt 50W downlighters. :D Each downlighter is supplied with its own transformer - 65VA. I know how to go about this install if it was 1 fitting and 1 transformer, however the additional...
