Hi

i am right in saying that you cannot run these lights with dimmers?

I have a light with 12v halogen lights and i'm assuming this means i cannot use any kind of dimmer with these?

Thanks

Alan
 
you can use a dimmer if the transformer is compatable,it will tell you in the instructions or it may be written on the tranny
 
oh right i will check tonight, although it was more the fact that the switch i bought said do not use with low voltage transformers
 
Dont use DIY transformers, they are crap get a decent one. Aurora, IBL or Mode are the most reliable.
