I had seen a post mentioning converting halogen bulbs to LED bulbs. I had a basic idea on how to proceed, but later stumbled across this web page http://www.instructables.com/technology/leds/?&sort=FEATURED&offset=60

There are actually a lot of LED lighting projucts in these instructables. Have fun and enjoy!

Everybody might want to spend some time on the instructables site listed above there are some interesting solar tracking plans there as well. All in all the range of subjects include fun stuff to practical stuff.

I was the one who did the Halogen conversions. I have a pdf flyer on the details.

email me for a copy

since I did those I found a source for GU10 LED bulbs in 12 V DC. To convert the mini can lights now it is a simple trick of swapping out the bulb...
