is 240 volt and about the same size as a normal halogen capsule but with straight pins. The one in the picture is 300W and too powerful, I would like



40/60 watt.

I can only find 12 or 24 volt capsules with straight pins.



Can anyone advise what it is I should be searching for online.

that looks like a Overhead projector bulb ....

I think the pinss are a bit close together but you may be able to modify a g9 bullb by clipping the outside wires and straightening up the pins ...

I've looked at 3 separate website of lamp specialists, none of them have anything other that the 300w ones for 240v. Pleanty of lower wattage for

12v.

What has it come from?

Chris, you deserve a gold star and a tick :-) BLT direct, I had never heard of them but they have exactly what I need, thank you.
