How do you control gu10's?

[dependabledjs]

Hi there,
Got myself 12 par 16's with the mains halogen 50w gu10's. Just wondering, what type of controller should i wire them into? Would one of those bulgin type ones be any good, or are we talking a 10amp dimmer pack? I dont wanna get it rong and fry myself and the lights!

Thanks,
Ken

You should be fine with a bulgin based controller. The only time you have to be careful is if the lights are fitted with transformers in which case you need a controller suitable for powering an inductive load. (most do)

Yup as James said, either a bulgin based controller or dimmer will do as the variety that take a GU10 are 230v unlike the low-voltage (12v?) which you need to be a bit more careful with.
