Go to YouTube and watch the video in how and where to slice the rope light correctly.

I would get a led dimmer (wireless)and connect it in the line so u can control the entire lights with that dimmer.

There is one long car cable that attaches the foot controller to the dimmer box. I believe that is it...Every light fixture just plugs into the dimmer pack.

I used an electronic dimmer switch and it works like a charm I got mine at Ace Hardware for less than $20. Remember you are controlling the power to the Ballast not the Lamp

I'm not sure about dimmable, but there is nothing inherent to LED technology to rule that out. Hardwired would be difficult to pull off under code. The included cord exits out the end of the light, and there is no conduit fitting. There's no way to mount the light to a box either. Theoretically, you could use the included cord, cut the end off and make it up to the supply wires in a box, but that would not be compliant with any electrical code. The legit way to do it is to install an outlet and plug it in.

Just plug it in the balance port on your battery. Mounting it, I used the velcro provided and drilled two small holes slightly off center and close together, mark one of the wires and the terminal block un-plug them from the block feed through the holes and Bingo. Mine came out very nice. Also cut out a small rectangle on the velcro on the light to make a nice fit for the wires on the light itself..

Donna,FYI - I bought and installed this exact system with no difficulty. Your comment/question is too vague to answer. To recap the usual installation: the red dimmer wire must connect to the "+" side of the LED strip, and the black wire must connect to the "-" side. This is mandatory or else the LED's won't turn on. The dimmer is then plugged into the transformer, and naturally the transformer must be plugged into an active 120 volt outlet. Also, double check that you have good connections at the LED strip. If this doesn't help you, please explain in more detail how you have your system set up. I'd be happy to help you.Doobster Donna,FYI - I bought and installed this exact system with no difficulty.

My apologies for the previous reply. We purchased the lamp with the idea of not using a chain. The cord is sufficient, and after we looped it over the ceiling hook, we secured it ( simple knot) to a hook leading down to the electrical connection. Again, sorry.

I discarded the mount and used two electrician's wire ties to mount my light. Because the light is bigger in the middle, it can't slip out at either end.

This item does not contain a dimmer. This would have to be done externally to the lamp assembly.

The dimmer is unstepped, rheostat like, so you can set it where you want it. Two buttons, one for progressively brighter, the other for dimmer.

It is located on the cord on the lower part of it. However I bough a different cord that had a slide dimmer switch on it and use it with the light I am very pleased with this light.

Mine are super bright, but with what's included in the box, no.However, any light can be dimmable. LED's use DC current, these particular ones plug into standard 110v, then have a mini transformer to switch it to 12v DC. The "dimming" has to happen after that transformer where any full-range switch would work.If you search "LED rope light dimmer" on Amazon, there are interchangeable power cords that DO have dimmers on them that work with this product, but they will ONLY handle ONE 50' run.

Usually this is because your dimmer isn't rated high enough wattage..... check the watts on the light and multiply by three..... go to the electrical supply house and they can get u a dimmer that will work with them

There is a very similar looking model from Skylink that has dimming functions. Maybe yours is dimmed. The Dimmable model instructions might tell you how to do that.

If the led rope lights are rated as being dimmable, then it certainly should. I depends on the design of the LED fixture.

You simply put the string through whatever you want to attach it to, then loop the light back through the string. It really is quite simple.
