House downlights come in both 12 and 240 volts.
The 240 ones get hottest and dont last as long as the 12 v.
Have had both and some 240 ones have lasted as little as 5 weeks.
CFL are the way to go at the moment in a house but you cant put downlights in a van as they are about 120mm high and need space for heat dissaption.
A bar fluro would be the way to go and a lot cheaper than LED's as
well
We have oyster fluros in our van and they give a good spread of light and are surface fixed.

Perth a while ago RRP $70
