Hi all,
Please excuse me if this has already been answered in another topic, I'm hunting for some advice.
I'm chosing some spots for my bathroom, Screwfix is proably going to be the place I get my stuff from.
I'd like to:
Have soft start (which I think is where the lights build up to full intensity over a second or so, is this right?)
Have dimmable (option to have mood lighting tone in the bathroom is an aspiration)
and for both of these I think I need 12V spots, but I may be wrong?
These are the ones I'm looking at - Screwfix IP44 ones. http://www.screwfix.com/prods/81219...;jsessionid=JSONO1FNMNUMGCSTHZPCFFI?ts=61337#
I can't work out what I need for transformers. None of the transformers I've found on screwfix say soft start (although it may be that I can't see for looking) and I have a very naiive question ...
Do I need one transformer for the room, or one transformer per spotlight?
I'll have 6 spots in the room.
And finally, can anyone direct me to a guide on how to wire up the 6 spots? If it's covered by regs then I'll get an electrician in, but I'd still like to know how it's done so that I know what I'm asking for and what a proper job looks like.
I'm fine with doing general domestic electric work that is acceptable to do under the regs.
Many thanks!
