Are you in contact with them perchance? The answer may be a short

I am slowly replacing their halogens with LED.
Lounge has 12 x 60w, kitchen 13 x halogens.
Are these mains voltage or 12V? I have a lot of 12V halogen bulbs and
I am wondering if they can be replaced or if the huge drop in load
would damage the transformer.

No cant contact them.

I believe the halogens were 240v in and 12 v out.
The ones I have replaced and still to replace are in the kitchen and
where I had 9 halogens in the ceiling I have replaced with 4 LED 6 inch
panels total wattage for the 4 is 48W as against 540W and it is much
brighter (cool white).
They cost around £8 per panel on ebay I think each panel has 30+ LEDs in it.

Thanks. That was exactly my concern. I thought that the load and the
coils on a transformer had to be balanced and thefore to substitute
48W for 540W would damage the transformer. I'm sure that overloading
a transformer can cause damage. What I don't know is whether
underloading can cause damage.

Hopefully, one of the experts will appear to explain.
