Q: Can I add extra lamps to my transformer that came with my decking light kit? A: Unfortunately not. The transformer is sufficient only for the lamps included in the kit. We have 4 and 6 lamp kits available, though. Q: Can you send my lamps to our house in France? A: Certainly. We will send to most places in Europe. Please get in touch to confirm whether there are any additional charges or go to our French site Q: Do you have an outside transformer that would drive five 12v 20w bulbs. The exciting transformer has just died. At the moment the bulbs are those small halogen but will also take LEDs when I get round to swapping them. A: We have an IP67 (water proof) transformer in 100 or 150 watts.

BUT... Bear in mind if you are swapping to LED, the wattage will be reduced,so you will not need such a large transformer.Roughly speaking, a 5 watt LED will replace a 50 watt halogen, so for 5 of those, a 30 watt transformer would be fine. See our help guide to transformers for more info. Q: I placed my order last night at 10 O'clock, when will I receive it? A: Orders placed after the4pmcutoff will be processed and dispatched the following day. We offer a Next Day & 48hr service.
