travelinbob Posted May 20, 2018 Report Share Posted May 20, 2018 I want to replace our track light with a newer and better looking track light. Some companies offer what they call a 12V low voltage light but it still needs powered by 120 volts. Where can I find a 12 volt track light for in our kitchen ? It has to be a track light to cover the holes in the ceiling from the old one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My experience has been that if the fixture is truly 12v you can plug it into a 12v source without needing the wall wart or transformer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelinbob Posted May 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 The track lights that I have found so far that are 12V have a transformer at the light head that drops it down to 12V but needs 120V to feed it. All I have in the ceiling is 12V. Someone must make them, or did make them back in 2006, I have one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darryl&Rita Posted May 21, 2018 Report Share Posted May 21, 2018 You could probably buy the 120v model that suits you, wire the track for 12v, then bypass the step-down electronics in each head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
