Dear group,
I'm a first time poster and I've done something monumentally stupid, which was to replace 5 20w halogen light bulbs with 5 50w halogen light buls because they were cheaper (I'm used to "normal" bulbs, where it never seemed to matter what wattage I use).
Two days later, and the circuit that's feeding electricity to these bulbs seems to have blown. After a bit of research on Google it sounds like the transformer failed and needs to be replaced.
To cut a long story short, I'm intending to pay someone to sort this out for me as I don't really want to start fiddling with it myself. I've never had to hire an electrician before and was hoping someone may have an idea what kind of price is "reasonable" for this sort of repair, as I'd rather like to avoid getting ripped off.
Thanks in advance!
