Can I just tap this lights into a switch outdoor light i currently have on my travel trailer that way i can flip the inside switch to turn them off/on

Yes, you may, if the trailer supplies 12VDC. Note however, that this item is not waterproof, therefore it must be protected from the elements.

Not knowing the set up of where the outside switch is located it would be difficult to advise you. I would surmise it would be easier to just put a regular switch inside and replace the outside switch with a two way switch like the new one you are placing inside.

No you cannot. We bought parts at Radio Shack and made our own switch allowing us to control on/off for each light.

No, These Lights are not water proof, and I wouldn't try using them on a boat trailer.

I have done the same thing for outdoor lighting and it worked fine. I would suggest putting the old bulbs back in and see it they work or measure the connector outlet to ensure you have 12vdc at the terminal. Good luck . These bulbs I received far surpass the halogen bulbs that I had in prior with a great light and much longer life.

The lights I have are at my other residence so I can't verify this..."I think they can but they may need to be wired differently to enable that feature". I remember the instructions mentioning something about this. Sorry, not much help.

Yes, however, both of my light fixtures operated by pull chain (i.e. pull the chain, the light is on) so when I screwed in the new motion activated light bulbs, I left them on the "on" position and they turned off within 3-4 minutes. I would assume that a flip switch would be the same way; leave it on and let the new light turn off by itself. I, personally, love the convenience.

I dont see why you cant.just hook up the positive and negative wire and you should be good to go.the led lights draw hardly any power.they are great lights and good people to deal with. Good luck

Yes, you can. These lights come with their own transformer, just connect to a 110 volt source, they work great!!

Yes....you can press the The button that you change the light pattern with go through one by one and one of them has to outside lights off tht is wht I did

Yes you can, just make sure the lights dont get wet cause they are not water proof.

yes or better yet run it to your fuse block and install an on/off ( rocker switch) so your can flip it on/off at any time. Even rolling down the road to check your trailer behind you.

You can switch the bulbs out on these lights, if you wish. I put small LED's in mine, and they worked perfectly.

I'm not sure you can try direct wiring them with a toggle switch but i needed mine to flash but i have seen brighter led lights than these

as long as you have a flat 4 prong trailer plug in, if not you'll need an adapter to the round plug. Also, so you know now you will need to splice the reverse wire for the bar with your reverse lights wire. Use a quick splice

You can wire them to a switch. But the wire is really short on these. I trashed mine they were going to take way to much sodering for my liking.

You'll need to purchase a wiring harness if you want them on a toggle switch. I spliced them into my reverse lights so I didn't use a wiring harness
