I am interested in replacing existing R80 lights using the 12v converter kit but am concerned about low light levels. I notice your earlier answer to a query regarding the Phillips masterline AR111 45w which are equivalent to 100w R80- could these be supplied as a converter kit too? |

I`m replacing some large mains downlights in a Kitchen and the cut outs are 143-145mm, you mention grip fill can be used for slightly larger holes, do you think this will be feasible with the limited overlap I have to play with? Or if I fix some strips of wood/plasterboard inside the cutout to reduce the width effectively making an oblong inner hole, will the springs be able to grip against that? |
So, does a cut out of 140mm mean that this is suitable for a hole up to 140mm please? Therefore suitable for a hole size 130mm? |

I need to replace 6 x R80 eyeball fittings in a single story kitchen extension. Which is the most economical system with the best light output - your mains converter with 6 watt led lamps or the 12v version?
|
Can you recommend a dimmer to control 6 of these units? |
I have 6 old R80 units in my kitchen that I wish to replace. I would like to use a system more economical on power, therefore possibly 12v. I want to make it dimmable so that I can adjust the light levels. Does each lighting unit come with an individual electronic transformer or do you put in one transformer for the entire circuit? How much more efficient is the 12v system? Does the transformer produce heat / fire hazard? How difficult would it be to introduce 2 circuits to dim sections separately? |
I need to replace some old R80 eyeball fittings installed in the bedrooms of my house. However, the positions are quiet random with only three in the two larger rooms and two in the small room. The ceiling hieghts are only 2445mm hight. I was thinking of using the converter 12v kit to replace these lights but I am concerned that where the original eyeball lights are directional the replacement lights will not give as much light? Please advise if this fitting is convenient for my use and if not please could you recommend an alternative fitting that would fit into the 130mm cut out size left from the R80 fittings? |
I want to replace four R80 downlighters with four downlight converters in 12v. Am I correct in assuming I will only get the equivalent of half the light output from the replacement downlighter? |
