We have a number of those "bedside lights" with a transformer in the

containing a 20 watt halogen G4.
I've just used my last spare halogen bulb, I see there are loads of LED
replacements around.
I am using an LED replacement in the transformer equipped desk light
beside
me. No problems

(just be a bit careful you can get 1.8W (~20w Halogen) and 1.0W (~10W
halogen) I can only speak for the 1.8W which seem to be fine. I expect
as always you need to make sure that you get the colour temperature that
you prefer - presumably warm white for bedside.
or maybe a cooler/blue white for reading. I find with my ageing eyes
that the blue white light gives better contrast when reading from a book.
