How do you wire this without cutting the female plug off? They only came with a female end and no male end or bare wire to run to power????

When I received mine I cut both wires, I had two and wired them direct to the dimmer I had purchased.

It's been a while since I bought it and no longer have it. I think it came with a pigtail that plugged in.

I really don't know. I'm not an electrician by any means but I expect it's possible. I just wouldn't know how to go about it safely or how to cap off the end so there is no bare live wiring.

You need a 'hot' line inside your cabinet, preferably a "J" box than drill thru the bottom of the cabinet and wire to the hot leads in the J box. If, like me, you don't have a J box to connect to you can buy a male plug end and make the alteration so you can plug into a convenience outlet. I have an outlet in the splash I can plug in to.

It does not come with a power supply. You will need to provide 120VAC to the unit. There are several ways this could be done, but I took an extension cord and cut off the female side hard wiring it to the unit. Then I just the plugged the male end into an outlet.

It comes with no wire connection. Hard wiring would probably be best but I took a heavy duty extension cord (8') cut off the female end, used a romax connector and wired it ti the fans terminal strip. Hope that helps.

If you like yours so much, then purchase one to go with it!! Could you help me get mine set up?? I just cannot figure out what wire goes where. and not all of them fit

It is supplied with bare wires, you can either hardwire it or add a 12VDC power plug. Be aware that the wires are 22 - 24 AWG, ie very hard to work with for hardwiring.

From the description: "No ends, outer jacket removed &-conductors stripped." You would need your own male and female Nema 15 amp ends, or to hardwire them.

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

No. They only come with one female and male connector. If you want to lengthen them you have to purchase additional. I had to take mine apart and hard wire it.

The existing wires come directly out of an encapsulated power supply in the box. What I did was open the box and attach the existing wires to an inserted Romax wire using wire nuts. There is plenty of room in the box for the wire nuts. I sealed the hole with a little calk.

Hi. The plug is wrong for what you want to do. You will have to get a female adaptor or see if there is one that comes with a female end.

Noooo dude, you gotta get an interface and a chord. I dont know what its called but its like 5$ and it has a male and female end. Hope it helped!

Now that I've looked at the product, I remember. The wires will hook up as Tinkerguy notes below. Just put the wire into the hole and screw the screw in and it holds the wires firmly. So basically, you just need to strip the end of the wires from your 12V supply bare and put them in.

Yeah you can hard wire anything, comes with a plug. You are crazy to hard wire, I would hard wire a female receptacle then you would have a second plug for a light if you need it. But you could cut off this male plug and hard wire it.

I had the same problem. You need to buy a female-female connector.That will do the trick four you.It is normally 2$

Hi, The breaker is on plug (male pig-tale end) you would think it should be on the female end for more convenience. These reels however are very nice and very popular.SincerelyRockyKamrock Lights
