My son, wants to have downlights on the ceiling - but cannot have many ceiling penetrations - ie only power cable and 2 - 3 screws!
We currently have 240 v halogens in the room - 2 banks of 5 globes - but they blow frequently and down to 3 - 5 globes regularly. He still wants the "halogen" light in the room - we have tried the low energy fluros but he does not like the light!!!
I am currently looking at the 12 v swivel downlights but trying to find a way to mount them to the ceiling. My thought is to construct a plywood square/rectangular tube for the transformers and lights. Just wondering if this is possible how much ventilation would I need in the tube? My thinking is for the depth (from the ceiling) about 150 mm and width 130 mm and 1000 mm for about 4 12 v downlights.

regards,
