I want to fit those small downlights in several locations in my new concrete box
they have some nice fittings, suitable for both 240v and 12v
the 240v lamps are only available in 50w rating, the 12v in 20, 35 and 50w
the 12v need a seperate transformer for each fitting, costing about B120 each, otherwise the costs are about the same
so..... do the 12v, 50w lamps cost less to run than the 240w equivalent, even though they are rated at the same wattage? it would be 1/20th if the equation makes sense
I seem to remember an equation about watts, volts and amps, but if rated at 50w, then they use that anount of power, or am I thinking incorrectly?
