    Low voltage halogen downlighters and dimmers...

    I have a row of 5 downlighters, each with a dedicated transformer and a 1-way switch. I am going to add a second switch to make it to way across my bedroom, but is it possible to have dimmer switches? Do the spots need to be 240V ? Thanks as always.

    Home Alarm

    Home Alarm

    Ah found it. They must have raised their prices, or offer a cheaper option. They have 'systems for £99' in the window, and my neighbour got a full system fitted for £115. I know this because I offered to fit it, and they shown me the quote they had.
