Reply to "T10 LED lights"

Led light can also be labeld wide or narrow in focus. Go wide mostly.

LED do not like over voltage and will cook in an instant (the automotive ones should be good to about 14-15v)

They are dc devices. You need a regular diode on either wire for use on ac track with most led. And maybe a resistor to keep it under volt limits and/ or dim it.(variety pack to dial them in 10-500ohm, then buy whatever.  Supposed AC safe led? Counts on a breakdown voltage of the led sometimes, I suspect a shorter life that way and would spring for the regulator diode (dirt cheap, general purpose rectifying diode)   A bulb will still work with a diode in place too. Some led may actually have a regulator diode already in the base.

Once you do it once or twice, it will be easy
