do these light how a build in power supply. how do you connect them in series ? one wire loop ?

I used mine in my RV renovation. They connect with the 2 wires directly and I suppose in a loop would work as well as they are led. They are bright and 12 volt

Each light has a small power supply that attaches to it's wire leads. The power supply converts the 120 volt AC power you supply to it, to a low voltage DC supply for the fixture. I am told by the company that you can not supply more than one fixture with each power supply. You will need to connect your 120 volt power to all of the low voltage power supplies in parallel, not series.

This strip is powered by a 12 volts DC converter, so as long as your power supply has an output of 12vdc then I would not hesitate hooking them up. This is a very versatile set of lights. Have fun with them.

NO. This is a switch mode power supply, you cannot series (or parallel) them without damage (and perhaps dangerous overheating). They are designed for LED type (non-inductive) loads only.

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 : )

These simply repeat whatever signal is put into it, with a power boost. This is useful for having only 1 controller, but using these you can send that signal with plenty of power to however many strips and repeaters you want. For my build, I used a 360w power supply and 5 of these repeaters to power and send signals to about 10 RGB LED strips (2 strips per repeater) with just 1 controller. What I used: http://www.amazon.com/SUPERNIGHT-Switch-Power-Supply-Switching/dp/B008HARHN8 Edit: On the output side of the repeater, you can see two 'power' terminals. I wired two repeaters from each terminal from the above mentioned power supply. Alternatively, you can also use http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B7BGAXW (though I've had mixed results with plug compatibility). For me, I have my repeaters wired directly into this cable: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008LR6EAY, which then goes to a connector that attaches to the lights. Overall I would suggest using a DC power supply if you plan on using more than 1 of these.

These are basically like a wireless cable. They don't seem to depend on anything specific from the devices themselves. They don't seem to like the power that my lights supply to for the icicle brand of wireless controller, son I do need to power them on using the included power supplies prior to plugging them into the lights themselves.

These lights are NOT low voltage. I used threaded ridgid conduit (1/2 inch) for the post. The wires come straight out of the bottom of the light (there is no cavity to house the electrical wires) therefor you will need a straight through connector; such as a c-series LB, LR, etc. conduit body.

The connectors are Goal Zero specific, and the lights come with connectors ready for series connections. There's a car lighter adapter with each light, USB cannot power these lights.

Just the strip of lighting I use them with 12v batteries and any 12v power suppy will work. Standard 12v female adapter on the end of led....and an assortment of dimmers and switching are available...power supply extra.

It's simple. Comes with 2 wires exposed at the ends. Red and black. The red gets connected to the positive (power) and the black to (negative). If you wire them to a switch just add the in between the connections. There are multiple videos on YouTube how to do this. These are bright and worth the money

We did not have good ones...looked at pic plus so called directions and worked it out. I had to go to the store to get some good wire so I could tie all he black and white to create just one for each as there were so many to connect...normally this is already done for you by most company's , so this is poor to leave to the consumer esp if you know nothing about electrical . If you do that give yourself enough slack as it's hard to connect if you have to hold it up close. Good luck...light is nice though and looks good

Any 12V power supply will do, Amazon has great prices on them; I wire these in "loop" fashion for equal brightness along the run and recommend 12 ga wire, also at a great price on Amazon.

Hi, I linked them by running hardwire to each fixture (and box) the only other way to link them would be with the provided wires but they are not very long. Let me know of you need more information

These are only one watt. So you power supply will be minimal. I would by the smallest transformer. I don't know what that would be. Perhaps a 50? With LEDs you can go small and save money! Note when you go to set your timer be advised that the red indicator is to turn on the light. A bit counter intuitive.

You need a controller box to drive the LEDs, but that power supply you linked should be able to power a controller box. I'm not exactly sure how long it would be able to power the lights, but it would work with a controller box

only comes with the wire that is attached to each individual light. You have to get the low voltage wire (cut to the desired length you need to go through your garden) separately at Home Depot or similar store. The employee there should be able to help you choose the correct wire. You will need to measure where you want it to go in order to tell him how much you need. Hope this helps. Once you get them connected and working you'll love them. I do. I've had mine for years. You'll need an electrician to connect them to the transformer or someone that knows how to do it. Enjoy!

They don't come connected together. They are designed to be wired into an existing, wired pipe/stand. They take a regular light bulb. I would recommend LEDs so that you don't have to go through the hassle of changing out the bulbs so much.
