I'm not sure if each light can be individually wired. They are all in series with one A/C wall plug. It's a good product.

Yes, it can. I have mine wired to plug in, but you can also direct wire it as well. I did purchase the additional wiring kit to plug it in, but feel it was a waste of money and could be purchased cheaper at the hardware store... It included gold chain (I prefer the bronze that came with the lamp) and a lot of wire, a switch, plug, etc; I truly love this lamp... It is class!

It is meant to be hard wired. There is no plug and no switch. Even though I googled something else, namely very specifically a plug-in switched hanging lamp, this popped up first and I didn't read the fine print to see that it wasn't at all what I was looking for. Be warned.

Wire one power supply to both ends 12v DC or 24vac works great / output switch can be NO or NC just move jumper / unit is aligned when LED is lit on receiver. The one with 2 wires is lamp and 4 wires is receiver / if near a window or slider signal may bounce off glass, A tube or tape may help to limit beam. Have fun : )

They cannot be wired to each other. Each needs to be wired directly back to the switch.

You would need to purchase separate control/switch. I purchase an additional power supply and dimmer switch. to have 2 sets of separately controlled light bars.

I am not an electrician but I believe the lights can be wired together, however the 2 main lights will overpower the small nightlight and I don't believe you will be able to notice the difference of adding the night light.

Yes you should be able to use a 3 way, but I never tried. This turns a normal lamp into a dimmable lamp. I have several and LOVE them. Even the fact that you can place the control where you want it make a difference. No more reaching up into the lamp to turn it on.

Yes you can tie these into the same switch. But be aware what you see in the picture is all you get. You do not get the mounting 4x4 or equivalent box. This light is sold to replace existing lights or new construction after the mounting box has been installed. The setup your buying will screw directly to an existing 4x4 or rounded box.

I'm not sure what you are asking, but I have these lights wired to my household (120 volts?). My standard household wiring uses 14/2 wiring (14 guage with 2 conductors and 1 ground). I spliced my lamp with an outdoor extension cord that I repurposed from Xmas decorations. I then plug this into an outdoor electrical outlet. I have suffered no problems whatsoever.

The lights I have are at my other residence so I can't verify this..."I think they can but they may need to be wired differently to enable that feature". I remember the instructions mentioning something about this. Sorry, not much help.

Yes. The photo control is a separate, hard wired piece. You can just disconnect it and wire directly to the "lamp" wires. But consider this - you don't need the light when it isn't dark, so you turn on the switch anytime during the day if you want the light. When it gets dark, it comes on. If you do not want the light, leave the switch off. You get the best of both worlds there. (Mine are like that). Because they are instant-on you can turn them on/ off at any time.

No. These lights are meant to hard wire directly. A cord can be attached to these easily if needed.

No, the lamp does not provide a plug to connect them in a row. In addition, I noticed that it is also recomended to not plug them directly to a "protected" (GFCI?) socket. I read one of the reviews that mentions that the lamp was triggering the breaker. I have it on a standard wall plate and did not have any problems with the circuit.

Like Jonathan W. Hickman said, These come with switches for two lights at a time, so if you just want to use two lights instead of all 4, you can simply just switch off a pair and use the other two.

I ordered 3 of the lights. Each light came with a 3 foot cord (light to outlet), an 8 inch cord to connect one light to another (if you are putting several in a row), and a 6 inch cord to hardwire it. Also 2 mounting brackets to attach the light to the ceiling.So, yes, you can connect this directly to an outlet without wiring.

Yes, I have the same situation. You can leave the switch on the light on and control it from inside, or you leave the inside switch on and control it at the light. It WON'T work like a 3-way.
