Can I use this to make a ceiling light a plug in fixture?

Yes. I used it to add track lighting to a room and then plug it into a standard wall outlet.

This is a 12volt light, it is hard wired, you could make your own plug-in, would not be hard to do. Nice bright lite.Mine is in a motor home.

yes but you should make sure that the hole that you cut inthe ceiling is up against a joist so you can secure the housing of the fixture

No, it must be connected to the eletrical connection in the ceiling. Unless you were to splice an outlet cable to the lamp's wire & run it across the ceiling & down the wall to plug it into an outlet.

Sorry, I just got back to read my emails. This item is ok if you want to wire your garden area with special wiring for this type of light. I didn't read all the information about it and wanted a plug in to the outlet type. So I am going to eat this one for now. Maybe one day I might wire my whole backyard to have this type of lighting system. Sorry I could not help you more. Good luck.

It is meant to be hard wired in to a ceiling fixture (e.g. with a junction box). It is not meant to plug into an electrical outlet.

I personally wouldn't recommend it since it is not made to be a ceiling light, it is a plug in lamp.

Yes you can, I removed some old fluorescent fixtures just leaving a white black and neutral wire. I think connected these new fixtures, they worked really well, I bought more

It might be possible to make a long "extension cord" that plugs into a wall outlet (usually near the bottom of the wall), and then you could glue or tack it to a corner and run the wire up to the ceiling, and then across to where you want the actual mounting to be. There, you would connect the light fixture socket to the long extension cord you made, and it would be safely wired into the house electrical system. You might want to get fancy, and paint the extension cord the color of the wall, so it would be virtually invisible, without needing to do a lot of "remodeling" type changes. Just a thought -- this would be a mid-level Home Depot type of project, entirely do-able if you think it through.

This fixture can be plugged into a wall. It is already hardwired. I love my fixture.

It comes with a power cord so it can be plugged in to an outlet. Or you can cut the wires and install it on an existing fixture or (as I did) you can create a new fixture. If your going to create a new fixture be careful how large you make the two holes in the ceiling because this light's covers are smaller than usual. Lastly, I'll say I am very pleased with it.

I'm using it as recessed lighting behind cove molding in my ceiling, so don't know why you couldn't!

Yes, it is set up to plug into the wall and hang from the ceiling. My husband took the plug off and wired it directly into our vanity light. That way both the vanity light and this one come on with a wall switch. It sheds a lot of light and looks great. It is not cheap looking like some of them. We went for the glass cover rather than the plastic and I am glad we did.

I would think the answer to be "Yes" from a ceiling electrical box but likely not so froma wall box as you will need to fashion and elbow linkage whether the light shines up or hangs down.It offers many possible configurations and is a very good value item to hang in variety of ways. Blue

If you are an electrician you can probably do this, yes. I have not tried it, so I can't say for sure. I do know that Home Depot sells a screw in socket adapter that converts the bulb socket to a wall outlet plug so you can plug in an electrical device, like this one. Good luck with your project.

hello, thank you for the question and interest. This lamp needs to be wired into ceiling. But, you can wire a plug onto the end if desired.

no i cannot be plugged into a standard light bulb socket. it needs to be plugged into a 4 prong ballast in order to work. some floor lamps uses these.
