A couple of months ago I bought a scented wax warmer, with a halogen lightbulb in it. Upon arrival it didn't work, I thought I would probably be a broken bulb and exchanged it. But when I turned it on it blew. The original lightbulb turned out to be a 220 volt one, with that socket those aren't allowed in the Netherlands, standard is a 12 volt. I reported it, they sent me a new warmer, without lightbulb. I've emailed about 5 times asking how to send the broken one back but never got an answer.

Tonight I pulled it apart, to see if I can exchange the socket for a 220 volt one and found to my great surprise a 110 volt transformer.

Unfortunately it look like a 220 volt socket will be too high. But in the base there might be enough space to fit in a small 12 volt transformer.
