While looking for a decent quality puck light, I noticed something peculiar. 12V Xenon fixtures and bulbs are much more common than the 120V versions. I find this very puzzling because the 12V Xenons require a transformer which costs the manufacturer more money to produce, and the transformer can burn out. So why would more companies want to produce the 12V rather than the 120V? Why would more people buy them? I tried to research this myself, and the best answer I could come up with is that the 12V might have a higher color temp as it burns hotter, and the filament is tougher to withstand vibrations. But is that it? Could that explain why people want to add a bulky and failure prone transformer to something that could otherwise be a simpler and more compact 120V device?
