I would like to install 9 low voltage xenon puck light fixtures around kitchen cabinets. I would like for them to be controlled by a single dimmer. Having trouble finding low voltage sets that I can control that many lights with just one dimmer. Will I have to go to 120 volt puck lights to accomplish this? Thanks for any help.

You can find dimmers that are rated to dim low voltage transformers.

Here is one of many:Lutron Electronics, Inc. - Glyder Controls (http://www.lutron.com/glyder/?s=17000&t=17200)

Hi Ronmar,
I would suggest 120 volt lights. You don't have to deal with transformers or special dimmers, and you can put a good amount on one switch. I have found the low voltage systems to be high maintenance. Bulbs and transformers failing more often than 120 volt systems. This is just my humble opinion.
