Led track light transformer or alternative fix

[nc12345]

Hi Guys
I fitted four 12V track light kits today that a customer had supplied , they came as a kit i.e 3 heads, track and tranny .I supplied the 5w led bulbs and found out they wouldn't work properly as the tranny needed a minimum of 35w to work , I know silly mistake but the previous JLS ones they provided worked fine.
So does anyone know if powerlite solutions make a led driver that fits their track kit or any other cheaper alternatives that would give me a quick fix as I have spent a fair amount on the bulbs.

thank you to any replys in advance

I do not know if you have any space anywhere but the danlers resload is designed to accommodate these problems by presenting a dummy load, however it is only 10W and so may not be quite enough.

Thanks as always Richard .
i think the dangler requires an earth which I don't have hence the 12v option .
I will try contact the customers supplier tomorrow and see what they have.
thanks again

OK this is not something I would necessarily recommend and it would be at your own risk if you were to use it for the customer, but try searching google for LED load resistor and you will find some for cars that may work. However they may well get hot so place carefully and remember that you would have lost the energy efficiency of the LEDs!
