Default Unusual voltage Dichroic Halogen

Anybody point me towards a supplier for a Dichroic Halogen 6V Volt 5W lamp
for a Christmas snowman display.

Seem to be able to find loads of 12v ones

Guess MR11, the 11 is diameter in eigths of inch, MR16 is the 2 inch
lamp popular in downlighters.

searching for "6V 5W MR11" avoids capsule lamps turning up.

A few years back my nearest B&Q were selling 6 V 5 W halogens but that could
have been old stock since I haven't noticed them since. 6 V halogens are
also used in camcorder video lights and bike lights so maybe a photography
shop or a cycle shop might have them.
