Hi looking at putting some spotlights in my bedroom and have found two potenetial sets I am thinking of buying. Both of these are double insulated however one set it 12v and another 230v. I was hoping for a bit of advise re:
1. What are generally better, I am under the impression 230v are more versitile i.e adding dimmmers etc, however I am told the bulbs last longer on 12v?
2. Looking at the 12v lights I am interested in they come fiited with a 3 amp plug, Am I able to remove the plug and wire it in to a junction box within my lighting circuit? is there any need to down rate the fuse to a 3 amp if I incorporate this in my lighting circuit or was this fitted in case it was plugged in to the ring final circuit.
3. Also Re the 230v lights looking at these the five lights receive the PH and N , what is the best way to wire these i.e daisy chain from one light to the next PH to PH, N to N basically adding lights or should use a 20 amp junction box and only have one PH and N go to each light (thinking this might be a bit messy with five lights)
As always your advise is greatly appreciated.
