A lot of the 12v ones are dimmable as wellGU10. They are a great light, dimmable with a normal inline as their is no transformer. I was going to mount them on side wall but i reckon if i hang them off the ceiling and i want to remove them im not gonna have screw holes visible.

If you have a dimmable transformer and a dimmer suited it will work but I am not sure on the prices. I know if you were to use a magnetic transformer instead of an electronic transformer and an older "rheostat" type dimmer instead of the electronic dimmer it will work no problems.Dimmable with a different controller as was as i was aware, cant dim 240v to a 12v transformer. Im no expert tho but i thought they were more expensive then a normal dimmer.

Be very careful about burns, as monitors grow the beam of halogens can be too narrow and cause burns. If the monitor can't be completely under the beam it's time to use a wider faced light.
I believe there is. Can I ask why you want the halogen to be dimmed? I am assuming for temperature control but I find that I just run my halogen on a timer and find that it will not heat up a large area so if the hotspot gets a little hotter than my dragon needs he will move in and out of the area as he would in the wild.Is there a 100w r7 (linear halogen) hanging fixture that anyone knows of, these may be a better lamp is its more of a flood then a spot like gu10 lamps.

Exo Terra only do a 35w (in Australia) that suits but it will definately take other 50w globes. Have sent PM with priceYour website is reading-
"* Note: This fixture is only suitable for our 35w Exo Terra Halogen globes only." If they do indeed suit 50w as exoterra say im interested, exactly what im after.
Can ya do a better price on 4 posted to 5043?
