Halogen to led conversion5/6/2023 ![]() I am nearly all LED now, but had 5 electronic switches, now down to 3. GU10 bulbs are normally OK it seems flicker only happens with bulbs under 5 watt, not a clue why, so 5 x 3 watt you often get flicker with electronic switches, but 1 x 6 watt works OK.Īs to make of bulbs even well know makes can have problems, it seems rather random. I have some G9 bulbs where I have given up, one of the 5 bulbs is a quartz, the same can be done with G5.3 MR16 bulbs, if one is a quartz the rest can be LED. It happens with any electronic switch without a neutral, even on/off does not need to be a dimmer switch. The problem with a wire wound transformer is they will not fit through the hole made for the light.īut to convert to 230 volt you need an earth, and often this means some rewire and fitting junction boxes, so if 12 volt can be used that is much easier, I was lucky all mine had wire wound transformers.ĪC has capacitance and inductive linking, with tungsten this is not a problem, but with LED it can result in lamp not turning off or flashing, this is made worse with two way switching and electronic switches, also with electronic switches you can get flicker, never worked out why. There are DC units but these are normally more expensive and designed to work on battery power, often rated 10 - 30 volt and need a smooth supply, really for boats and caravans.

But when they say 50 Hz we don't really have much of an option but to use a wire wound transformer as we don't know if they will work OK with any other frequancy. If youre going to change out the bulbs for brighter performance in your stock halogen projectors, use HIDs. ![]() ![]() ![]() As to LED both extra low voltage (normally 12 volt) and low voltage (normally 230 volt) both have problems, but extra low voltage has more, the main problem is the power supply, with tungsten it does not care if 50 Hz or kHz, or DC, but the LED MR16 compatable in the main are listed as 50 Hz but often they don't care if DC, 50 Hz or kHz what the problem is the power supply has a minimum load.
