6! How big is the new sofa?
I think the only problem i have with halogen spots is the heat given off them , but not sure if 12v spots give the same heat off ! .
had this argument with a lighting "designer". customer wanted smart lighting, whole house was approx. 120 downlighters. the "designer" specced 12V LEDs each with drivers. my input was "youse going to have problems". customer went with the designer's spec. and now is calling them back in to failures on a regular basis. he called me and asked if i could sort it out permanently. my reply was to rip out the £2000 he'd spent and start again from scratch. was not well received.A 50W lamp gives off the same heat be it 12V or 230V
If you must fit halogens, fit 230V jobbies
Aren't these halogens being phased out now?OK , just spoke to the client , he said he wanted 240v halogen spots , citing that led's light is not as good as halogen , we have agreed to fit the GU10 fire rated holders and I will show him both types fitted so he can see the difference !
No you can still get them readily , checked that first .Aren't these halogens being phased out now?
But my original question was about regs for fitting , not whether or not my client wanted halogen or led spots !
3 phased out or single phased out?Aren't these halogens being phased out now?
Or lined out3 phased out or single phased out?
These halogens get to approx 200 degrees C. so keep a distance away from anything combustible i.e. wooden joists and other fabric of the building.But my original question was about regs for fitting , not whether or not my client wanted halogen or led spots !
