    Is total wattage for the light fixture or the circuit?

    Hi, apologies for what may be a dumb question! I'm planning to upgrade a broken dimmer switch which was rated up to 250w with an LED-compatible one (the Varilight JQP401W), which is apparently only rated up to 120w. I initially assumed this would be fine as the switch only controls a single...

    How do I know what type of transformer I have?

    Apologies if this is a dumb question! I need a new dimmer switch, and figured I may as well upgrade to one that's compatible with LED bulbs (the previous dimmer was used with halogen bulbs). The Varilight V-Pro JQP401W seems to have good reviews. However, when checking the specifications I...

    Convert Halogen fitting to LED

    I want to change a couple of light fittings in our hall from Halogen to LED so we can get bright white bulbs to brighten it up a bit rather than the dull yellow halogens. The current light fittings are driven by Kaoyi KTB-60 and the fittings take 6 x 10W G4 halogen bulbs. We don't want to buy...

    Replace R80 downlight with led

    I have some old incandescent R80 downlights in my kitchen. I'd like to replace them with LEDs. Are there LEDs that work off 240 volts without a transformer/driver so that I can simply disconnect the old fitting and replace it with the new one? This is the easiest option for me because I believe...

    Replacing fluorescent battens - best option/s?

    I have a couple of windowed small office type rooms - maybe 10 ft x 12ft for the biggest one, lit with 2 double 6ft fluorescent battens. The smaller room has a single 6ft batten fitting. Price, looks, utility and effort are the main factors here. Looks are a little more important for the smaller...

    Converting 24V 250W ELC to LED?

    As some may know, I have some old disco lights what use 24V 250W lamps. I have often wondered how easy will it be to convert these to super bright LED's. For the one that has an ELC lamp in it (Geni Mojo Spin Master 1), I was thinking about getting the following...
