12v Undercabinet Light - Brushed Chrome

Hi I would like to order one of these in the recessed style, not the surface mounted one. I can't see the option for choosing between them on the order page.
All fixture come with the surface mounting ring. If this is not required just discard this.

I want these lights to replace existing 20v halogen puck lights. I have 4 lights connected to each transformer so just need to replace the light fittings. Can you tell me if the cable to the lights can be removed and replaced with the existing cables I have? The issue is the existing cables run behind the units and there is not room to run the new cables.
These are fitted with a flex. If you want to reduce the length of that flex, or join to existing wiring do so, but there are no screw terminals in the fixture.

can you supply just the covers and glass. I have similar lights installed but the covers have perished because of the heat
Pound to a penny they won’t fit, and we will both have something we can’t use or sell. Take the plunge, avoid doubt and buy the whole unit.

I plan to install 8 halogen on kitch furnitures where halogen spots were already previous installed but now need replacing. The electricity wirings are mounted inside furniture walls width. How is your lamps plugging set-up so that we can branch them on the pre-installed wirings ?
Assuming your existing lights are 12v halogen you could use your existing wiring and just replace the old transformer and light fixtures. To do this you might need to be able to use a soldering iron if there is nowhere to hide/house any electrical joints.

Do the lights come supplied with the surface mounting ring?
The surface mounted option comes with the surface mounting ring.

Can you quote a colour temperature for the recessed light, I'm looking for a warm light?
These are halogen, Which is a warm light.

can I use these under my cabinets in the kitchen onto a work surface? I don't understand your comment about not using a lower wattage bulb?
These can be used under a cabinet, they are designed for installation here. We state if you are using these to light furniture you may be better off using a LED lamp as there is no heat.

what is the cut out diameter for recessing the downlight?
To recess these the cutout diameter is 58mm.

Is clear glass available for the recessed fitting
This style of light is not available with clear glass.

Do you also stock the transformer for these lights?
Yes, the transformer can be found on the same listing. Use up to 3 lights on a 60va transformer. Use up to 5 Lights on a 105va transformer.

What is the internal diameter for the recess of this items?
To recess these the cutout diameter is 58mm.

which light is the fitting with the rim (top left) will it fit 60mm cutout
To recess these into your kitchen unit the cutout diameter is 58mm.

Is it possible to use led bulbs in these fittings, and, if so, which ones? Many thanks.
Unfortunately not, I`d recommend the Very Best LED Undercabinet Lights, you can find here: Very Best LED Under Cabinet Lights

How are these lights attached to the underside of a kitchen pelmet - the existing, very similar fitting, I have used screws through two hard plastic mountings which have disintegrated due to the heat I assume. Also I cannot separate the two parts or see how the light fitting is connected to the wiring - can you tell me how it works on this fitting?
The surface mounted option is mounted with screws through the backplate. Or the recessed option which may be better for your situation are held in with spring clips either side so won`t be susceptible to heat. The wiring of this fitting has two wires from the back of the fitting that need to go to a transformer then to your mains supply.

Do you do a similar fitting in a polished/brushed brass effect?
Unfortunately we do not offer brass currently.

Can you advice what size of hole I need to drill for these lamps
If you are planning to recess these into your kitchen unit the cut out diameter is 58mm. If you are planning on surface mounting these using the surface mounting ring no cutout will be required.

Could you please confirm whether these lights can be operated (via suitable transformer) by a typical dimmer light switch on a wall? I understand this is not usually possible with LEDs but may be possible with these halogen fixtures. I too am looking for suitable light fittings to recess into the underside of shelves with limited space within, (34mm,) so will probably go for 10w lamps to lessen heat issues, but it is important to us that they are dimmable. Many thanks.
Yes, These fixture require a G4 capsule lamp of which can be dimmed on most standard dimmers.

Can these light units fit under bathroom cabinet with cut out diameter of 50mm?
Yes they will fit perfectly but you may want to consider using the LED version - these will be cooler, less prone to heat damage your furniture and are energy saving. You can find them here

Are the lights plug in or mains ?
The lights are low voltage and will require a transformer however the transformer will need to be wired into your mains supply.

I want to be able to fit these into recesses in the bottom of a shelf. what physically holds these in place so that they don`t simply fallout of the recess?
There is a clip to the back of the light fitting to hold it in position.

Can you tell me how to open and replace the bulb on this type of lighting fixture?
Use a thin bladed instrument and insert between the bezel that surrounds glass and the housing. Lever out the bezel until you can grasp it with your fingers and pull off. Replace lamp and simply push back in place.
