Can you wire a 12v transfomer into a lighting circuit?

Hi
Here is the reply i got
Some kits have different transformers in.
All transformers are 230-240V Input
All are 12V Output some are 200mA and some are 1250mA, pretty much
what you
do with them is totally upto you, but, for warranty purposes we can
only say
4 per transformer.

I was looking at adding 5 lights per run but cannot do that it seams
Thanks

Assuming that the 200 and 1250mA are the currents at 12v, the mains current
required will be almost negligible.
How much current does each lamp require?
If you're going to buy a different transformer, getting one with an output
of 2A (2000mA) or more should enable you to run all five lamps off it.
