    I have an old 12v Loran Nightscaping transformer that runs incandescent bulbs. It died the other day. Can I run these off a VOLT transformer that will also be running led ?

    Thanks

    Hey Pete,

    Hope all is well. Our transformers can indeed be used with incandescent and LED bulbs simultaneously. Just be sure to check that the pre-existing fixtures are designed to operate on an AC current. Also, a voltmeter may be handy to make sure every fixture is receiving the proper current; especially any incandescents installed on larger/longer runs.
