    These are quite popular now, but dont know that many manufactures. Wondering is their better type than the robus ones.

    Im taking about the 30mm ones, plenty seem to make above 50mm diameter. Most use drivers or trafos which makes it bit more tricky in tight spaces like in a stairs.

    cheers

    we use the robus ones too, but not with many drivers etc tend to go for the osram lamps for the smaller fittings, far better quality light IMO

    Low voltage are better than GU10 Fittings. They have a nicer 'fade' effect when being switched on and off - kinda thing

    trafo's for low voltage are fairly slim these days though, shouldn't be too difficult fitting them in
