Hi
I have a light fitting with 8 bulbs which are halogen 12v 20 w. they have been working on a 250w 1 way dimmer for a few years completely ok. but recently the bulbs started to blow if all 8 were in and now the lights fade out after being turned on for 20 mins or so.
i thought it was the dimmer switch so replaced it with the same rated dimmer but no joy.
the transformer in the light is a doughnut shaped Braun 50VA. I assume it can work with a dimmer switch as it has previously? Do I need a low voltage dimmer switch to work with the light fitting?
Any help much appreciated.
cheers Rob
