Not quite true, you can DIY it but you must first go through your local Building control. They will then arrange for it to be inspected and tested.

Will cost an arm and a leg, but does make it all legal.

buy 20 of the lights, and spread them across the building. Then you won't need a transformer, just wire them in series :D

(yes this does mean when you turn one on, they will all turn on)

but you could just put all 20 in the bathroom... good for checking out how long the turd was.
