I am looking for sources of inexpensive 12V lighting to be used to
illuminate shelves.
I believe that halogen bulbs are used, usually in small round cases.
I would like to use two lights on a single transformer on each of four
shelves.

Thanks,
Eric

Have you considered using LED lighting? White LEDs will give good shelving
and display lighting and consume very little electricity. Do a google
search for 'LED lighting' and you will get lots of information.

Glad I could help. There's a lot of different LED fixtures out there now
that are direct drop-in replacements for regular lighting, and there are
also a lot of 12V systems as well.
