I want to put some LED lights on my sliding gate. I wondered if I
could power them inductively, with a power 'transmitter' fixed to the
gatepost and a power 'receiver' on the gate, positioned so when the
gate's shut they are close together and the LEDs come on. The power
requirement of the lights is 24W at 12VDC. The positional accuracy of
the gate is good.

Have you considered whether or not ultraflexible wire might be
suitable? Such as:

Just out of interest, why do you need the leds to be so bright? Leds
using 24W would produce give thousand lumens. If you need that light
level, why not have them fixed on posts?
It's not 24w per led. It's 24w in total
I know. That still equates to a couple of thousand lumens assuming
around 80 lumens/w for a typical "domestic" led.
Have you been to Bill's property?
