Hi,
I have recently been experimenting with LED replacements for halogen 12 volt downlights. The instruction state NOT to be used with an electronic 12 v transformer, however I find they work very well using an electronic transformer if the load is sufficient, (ie enough LED's are in a circuit. What problems am I likely to encounter if I continue down this roue?
Also is there any similar problems likely with LED alternatives for 240 volt mains replacement LED's?
cheers
