Hi guys I ran Into a problem the other day on a job and was looking for some advice. A client I was doing work for had 19 x Mr16 halogen downlights installed. 5 work of 1 x dimmer and 14 work of another dimmer / 2way switch. As half the transformers were faulty I cut them out and installed 5W Gu10 dimmable lamps instead. I installed a 2 gang varilight V-Pro Silent Trailing Edge Dimmer 120w 2way but it was flickering. I'm guessing the inrush current was the issue. Has anyone installed something similar that could handle this type of load.
Thanks
 
You should verify with Varilight tech, the spec of your dimmer. Their Web site suggests 1-10 LED’s for the JQP252W, if that’s the one you have.
