converting 12v halogen to LED

[jcann199]

Hi, I am in process of converting 12v halogen lights to LED. In my kitchen, I have 5 spot lights, each has its own transformer. Because I need to replace all transformers too, I noticed that one light's transformer has 2 wires input (2 lives and 2 neutral), all others just have 1 wire (1 live 1 neutral) into the transformer.

Any one knows why that one has 2 wires go into the transformer? Does that mean I need to place the transformer with 2 input terminals? Thanks very much

No - it has one cable supplying it, and one then going off to another of the transformers.

Not necessarily - as long as you can get two conductors into one terminal that will be fine.

It's probably a good idea to avoid products from makers who are either too stupid or too penny-pinching to make them capable of being daisy-chained.
