Can I wire this up to take a 12v AC/DC power adapter so I can use it as a Garage work light?

Yes, standard 12v system. They're really bright! And I mean really bright. They stay pretty cool too. It'd work great for a garage light/all purpose light. I actually wired one of mine to a cigarette power plug with a twelve foot cord and attached it to a magnet so I also have a engine compartment light under the hood.

Yes, any 12VDC power source of 1.5A or more. I'm using one as a cordless portable work light powered with a 12V/4Ahr NiMh battery pack.

Yes you can. The back of the light reads "power in: AC100V-240V." Just make sure you order the IEC male to female cables for master/slave linkage if not using DMX.

I would use the 12v 3A supply. The 9.6v 500mA does not have the proper amount of current to power the entire light strip.

It would be best to simply use a 12 V DC adapter as offered in our Amazon store or on HitLights.com.

Yes, you will need reconfigure the light and it will require 20 watts dc power. Or you can just get a power inverter.

You will have to remove the socket and hard-wire this fixture to the electric source. You may be able to find an adapter to give you plain wires from a screw-on socket though.

Yes it will work you have to run extra wire to lights from lighter power source

I expect it will work, but won't be as bright as the 18v transformer. The bulbs are rated at 14 volts and they are in series so in theory the fixture could handle twice your 12v source.

My box did not have 90-240 V and the light had only two wires. I used it with 12v DC system and it works well

I don't think so, this unit only work for 12V outcome. So I guess your lights use 120V.

You can cut the connectors and wire them directly to a power source. You did not mention the power source so I must remind you that if it is a 120v power source, you have to have the 120v-12v adapter. I used mine on a motorhome where all the light fixtures are 12v, so was able to remove my flourescent bulbs and rewire these strips directly to the light switch.

You will a 12V power supply with a plug that fits the light. Most of these are in the form of a plug-in transformer with a long cord. Another useful accessory is a dimmer. Be aware the leds can be either warm white or cool white. The warm white leds have a color much more like incandescent lights.

Using wire for outside usage , will be more than enough voltage to handle garage doorm

this product is 12 volts DC, no it will not work in a household light fixture

Apu - I do not think so. The manual says to only use the original power supply and to only mount it indoors. I have mine mounted on the ceiling next to my garage door opener, so it is a bit inconvenient for me to check the output voltage from the transformer. I am not at all certain it is twelve volts. I believe it is more likely five volts. Someone who has mounted it closer to the button that opens the garage would be able to check more easily what the output voltage is (as indicated on the transformer).

The light will work with 12 volt systems (like your car) all you have to do wire in a power and a ground with a switch and your good to go.

I would think it would not be a problem, anything that requires a 12 volt dc power supply should work as long as it doesn't require more than 10 amps
