Sorry guys. I have searched but I'm getting mightily confused.
Currently redoing the kitchen. Old kitchen had two fluorescant strip lights mounted under the wall cabinets as accent lighting. I want to change these to spot lights - two or three under the cupboards, and two on the top of the cupboards shining in (glass fronted).
It seemed to me that going for low voltage LED spots was the way to go, but the more I read, the more confused I get. Can someone clarify a few things for me?
1) Do you think LV LED's are the way to go? I was thinking that LV meant that I could run many lights from the two mains spurs that currently service the strip lights, but I'm confused about transformers.2) What type of transformer is better? Electronic, or torroidal?
3) Is it better to have one transformer per light, or can I put several lights on the same transformer? I would prefer the latter because this means I can route low voltage cable around the other areas.4) Any preference over DC/AC LED spots? Which is more efficient? (Do AC LED's even exist?)
Many thanks Lister
