Where can I buy 12V light fittings without having a mains transformer included in the package. I'm looking for 12V led lighting but everything I'm finding seems to either be a complete unit with an integral transformer or bulbs only.

What's the installation?

Anything I can knock together cheaply to make a 12V solar / battery powered lighting system in my shed as I acquired some free if small solar panels and want to do something with them.

You could just get a set with an external transformer (much more choice than direct 12v light fittings) and simply cut out the transformer?

I was hoping I could get something cheaper without the transformer, but yes I'm quite happy to butcher anything I can find if it's cheap enough.
