Reply to comment by fredsam25 in Can I use an in-wall European Light Fixture if I use a USA compatible 110v bulb? by Maxheadroom206
The Amazon USA compatible bulb I linked uses the same socket type and is the same length as the European light bulb.
I can put a low voltage LED bulb in any light socket I have in the USA without issue. would I really have an issue if I use the appropriate USA LED bulb for the Int’l model?
Wouldn’t I just need to modify the baseplate as the electrical wires between the models would not be different?

Yeah, I didn't notice that. If you're not modifying the socket and the US bulb fits it, this should work fairly easily. The wires might be different, but the international model is rated for a higher voltage. So you're fine from that regard. And at 20W, you're fine with whatever gauge wires they used. This should work.
