    Low Voltage Halogen Question

    ,..now to really mix you guys up,.. I tried 2 x 20w bulbs on the 65va transformer and each bulb is actually brighter with 2 connected as opposed to one??, can someone explain that one?? ,,no bend radius involved thee!,.. and I'm happy to use these transformers now as I may keep the 105va...
