Hi,

I have a transformer that runs two 10w G4 light fittings. The
transformer has a small 5-way connector block built into it. It has 20W
written on the side. It looks much like the following one which claims
to be an 105w model:

My possibly stupid question is, is my transformer likely to be rated at
20w in total or 20w per output, i.e. 100w intotal? Now given that there
are 5 possible connections that can be made to it it would seem unlikely
that it is expected to power 5 lamps at 4w... or am i being too hopeful?
The reason that i am asking is that I would like to uprate the G4 bulbs
to 20w each.

The *total* max load should be marked on it somewhere. Because it is
externally the same as another doesn't mean much. So if it says 20w that
is the maximum.
