Do i need to reduce the power to my 20w xenon lamps?

Arthur S asked:


I have 20W xenon puck lights powered by a 12volt 60W transformer. The system is set up to power 3 lamps, but in my application i am only using 2. some of the lamps and housing have overheated and failed. The heat has cracked the crome on the plastic covers. Do i need to reduce the power and if so how would I do that.

I’ve bought a mirror to the toilet with lamps built into the mirror. Beside the mirror I have the shaver socket. I’m not sure how to make the electrical connection to the lamps.
Thank you for all the answers, I will definitely to look for an electrician.
