how do these lights connect to power? My cans are a standard Edison base.

they have an edison base adapter that screws into your existing can lights and then plugs into these LEDS.

There's a screw-in adapter that will connect to the standard Edison base on your existing cans.

The LED bulbs come with an Edison base harness adapter. It's all plug and play.

Standard edison base. You unscrew your bulb and this has a bulb-like screw end that goes in. Note that they only hold into the can lining through some pressure tabs... hard to get them to stay in if your can lining isn't perfect.

they screw in to the old light bulb socket. Unscrew the old light, pull the trim kit off, screw the pigtail into existing light bulb socket and push the can up into the housing.... next

This is a controller board. It does not supply power to the light fixtures themselves, it simply plugs into the DMX interface for the lights (or the DMX dimmer switch if the lights do not have onboard DMX). The lighting fixtures can be whatever wattage their power connection (dimmer switch, power strip, wall outlet) and the light fixture itself supports. The board is powered by a wall wart from a standard 110 outlet. I use this in conjunction with ADJ dimmer switches connected to PAR36 cans containing 700 watt bulbs, but I could just as easily use 1000 or 1500 watt bulbs or higher if I chose, and if my PARs supported them (which they do).

They will connect, but I found they only lasted a few months. Although they were on maybe five hours each day, each of my two strands had nearly half the bulbs out. Will not buy these again. Sorry.

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.

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.

This is true, they connect end to end. however the signal and strength of the lighting itself deteriorates after 3 - 4 strips. I suggest separate the strips with a repeater which is supposed to boost the signal. I am not an expert by any means. just trial and error here.

I use a product called lightning bolts. They get connected to your factory wiring. Very bright.

These should run fine on a battery, but I cannot recall what the power connector is on the light. Ours are all installed on a studio ceiling grid along with their individual power supplies.

Sorry for the delayed response. Yes, I have them plugged into my dining room light fixture.. So a standard base I believe. We also have them in the lights of our fans in our back porch

I see no reason that wouldn't work. One end of the lights have a coax connector that plugs into a standard 12V adapter. The other end has two wires for connecting to another string. The second string would require removing the connector and connecting the wires to the first string. Each string will take about 20W so you have plenty of power for up to 10 strings. I would recommend soldering the wires, but that is not absolutely necessary if you make a good connection. One question - does that transformer put out AC or DC? The lights require DC.

Sounds like you may have them wired into a two way switch (something that would turn on regular lights then when turned off, it sends the power to the LED lights). Its difficult to assist since I don't know how you wired them or where you spliced the hot (red) wire into.

They come with the light, a mounting bracket and about 6" of wire. From there you'll need enough wire to reach your power and ground source. You might also need a fuse holder, a switch and or a relay. They hook up like any other auxiliary light.

Yes an Edison base is a standard light socket. I used this same bulb in a 12v system in a cabin, and works great, much better than a cfl. Just funny looking. Very bright.

If they are 110v, I would expect it to work fine. Mine is connected to a single switch that controls 2 outdoor lights. They have regular bulb, but I don't see any difference, it's just turning a circuit on or off.

we simply bought the lights that has the regular outlet adapter to it and plug the other end into a house hold outlet current. hope this helps

I believe the springs are the same as those used in a traditional can light reflector to hold in the housing. These are quite inexpensive to buy. If by electrical adapter you mean one that screws into a trAditional light base and provides live and neutral wires for traditional wire nut connection, they are hard to find. I found one as part of a can light retrofit kit in the low voltage lighting section at Home Depot. The kit was about $13.

yes....they have a light bulb like screw in connection....they are heavy so the attachment to the wall of the can is important...so pay attention to how the metal wire brackets fit into holder on the side of the can...not well explained in instructions but you can figure it out
