[QUOTE="binky, post: 519953, member: 490"] only if you want to blow them up! You need a transformer to convert from 240V to 12V. This would also need to earth the metal parts provided everything is class II insulated. I convert old telephones to table lamps. Transformer is Class II, mains cable is double insulated, lamp is 12v LED 2watts, cable from transfomer to lamp is single insulated as this is only carrying 12v [ATTACH]11632._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
