Anybody installing this in a low voltage ring? I have seen several reviews that say the fit is tight. Too heavy for a low voltage ring?

When you say low voltage ring, are you referring to the orange rings with the open back? If so, then yes this will install into those without issue. The weight is not enough to cause any issue.

Lol, i had the EXACT same problem when i put my first 9 Volt in. I just monkeyed with it now. Basically, make sure you put the top side in first (Push in and up), then swing the bottom half into the latches. It feels a little weird, but it snaps perfectly into place with little to no effort. Give it a try a few times and you'll get it.

Hi. I can only assume that your question is due to the country you live in. If so, i must admit that i bought a power step up and step down box. This was to make sure that if I got the voltage wrong, it would not matter. It was the safest way. The actual tool works perfectly.

What is your question??? If you don't know how to install it and your NOT handy with 12V Electrical systems you will have to take it to a shop. If you handy you can also YouTube installation on it and go from there, take your time and go slow don't rush so you're not blowing fuses, or damage anything in your vehicle.

I have it installed and working well. I used 4 gauge (along with a few other sizes for the other holes - have amps, relays, running lights and power inverter hooked up and will be running a CB from it also shortly). The 4 gauge did have a lot of room left over for bigger power wire - with 4 gauge the cover fits still.

The wire lead is short, so you do need to splice in a run to your power switch(not included)The mount is a single stud or bolt, which should fit about any application.

1 1/2 years on our bike and it still works. The voltage is lower than I expected or wanted at 12.8 volts at highway speed. It drops to 11.6 at an idle and I find that to be to low. But I have had stock alts and I've had a Compu-Fire that lasted 18 months and the armature was bad so it couldn't be repaired. I am actively looking for a better solution. We love the bike, but the electrical system is lacking.

If you have a transformer on it now, why do you want another? If its currently 12vac, why are you want to install an inline resistor? The value would depend on what your attempting to accomplish.

My item 95836 has two wires from the socket and a plastic coupling to connect to the low voltage line. My low voltage lines are 14 and 16 gauge but they only 2 wire each. Are you using a different source cable that has a ground wire ??

I fused the incoming side of mine. When I put the fuse in it popped very loud. I thought something was wrong also but it did not blow the fuse and when I checked the voltage on the other wires it was a perfect 12V. Still kinda scary hooking it up but I guess it is normal.

I hope I answer your question. This is installed in civic dome light, drawing on 12v. Just an fyi, the connectors are very flimsy. It works, just need to position connections exact.

Well, that load is within spec. I have not run mine this hard, but at this price it seems worth a try. I have had excellent performance thus far at 48V, probably 2-3 A.

Shouldn't be a problem mounting it vertically. Whatever works for you. I have mine mounted horizontally because my trolling motor batteries have extra terminals that easily fit the device. If you question the way it works like I did, then checking the switch with an ohmmeter is what I did. Works great. The switch that is....

I have Einstein lights and the speedring fits "ok" for lighter weight things, but I wouldn't trust it for a heavy softbox. The lip of the ring and fingers of the light don't seem to totally "lock-in" Someone suggested I take a belt sander and file it down. Haven't done that.

I am not an electrician but I also read that the minimum load was 50 watts. See: http://www.lightology.com/index.php?module=prod_detail&prod_id=17080 I have used the product for about 10 years for my low voltage lights and without a problem. The previous transformer, installed by a contractor, overheated. So I have been very happy with this product.

Wish I could help. I had my electrician install. We had 220V running to the location of the low voltage Nest. They ended up working great. Prob should contact an electrician. It was above my head, and I'm a fairly knowledgable GC. Good luck. Jeff

I'm no GC but I think low voltage is fine so I'd say yes. I'd ask a pro though.
