Hi Folks,
I was just curious if anyone would be willing to explain or point me in the right direction for more information about how low voltage transformers work with standard 120v SCR dimming. I've used them for silly props with spliced x-mas lights without a problem, but am interested in knowing a bit more about them.
I found this from another thread:
Lightbox Fan and a dimmer
I'm curious as to why the voltage spikes, and if I'm running any potential for fires. I might have gotten away with the props due to a short periods of use.
Any advice would be appreciated,
Keith
