I will be replacing 110V Florescent fixtures that are hardwired to each fixture. can these be hardwired like that or do they just plug in?

You can hardwire them, or plug them in. I have mine hardwired, but you need to keep that adapter that comes with it. So you have light --&gt; adapter --&gt; hardwired. Or you can do light --&gt; adapter --&gt; plug into outlet.

They can be hardwired in. The kits come will all the hardware you need to either hardwire them in place or to plug them in. I hardwired all of mine in to replace my 110v under counter florescent fixtures.

Yes... they can be hardwired. I just had 14 installed that way... there is a small power converter that hides up under the cabinet, but work great.

Hi, I linked them by running hardwire to each fixture (and box) the only other way to link them would be with the provided wires but they are not very long. Let me know of you need more information

Yes. If you already have undercounted lights you will already have a 110v feed to those lights. I used that feed and put an outlet just inside the cabinets.

hardwire only. also check the bulb size allowed, you may be disappointed with the wattage allowed.

You must rewire your fixture to use LED lamps in place of fluorescent lamps. If you're handy with electrical installations, this is a pretty simple task. You remove the existing ballasts and run 120v directly to the end or ends of the LEDs. The quick connect fittings in my old fluorescent fixtures made this especially easy since the 'tombstones' which provide mounting and power for the lamps had quick connect fittings. Note that the lamps I received required the hot (black) wire to one end and the neutral (white) wire to the other end of each lamp. I was able to do this easily using existing wires in my fixture with a wire cutter/stripper. I'm VERY happy with the results and would certainly do it again. You don't have to physically remove the ballasts but I did and recycled them

If this is low voltage system, the answer is no. There is a step down transformer between power source and the fixtures. Also I believe we are talking about AC to DC in low voltage systems.

The question as posed implies cutting off the power supply plug and hard wiring the wire into a conventional light switch which would be a no no because the plug-in power supply in this package contains a transformer to reduce the voltage to 12 Volts. This really isn't the right package if one wants to control the lights from a dedicated wall switch. I would suggest the customer go direct to InspiredLED.com. I can't overstate how easy it is to deal with people on line. They'll fix you up in no time once they have an idea what your wishes are. Send them dimensions and ideally a photo(s) of where you want lights and they will return it with a worked up layout, parts list and costing.

It is hard wired.If your wire is run into an outside box(same as inside outlet box,metal or plastic).The fixture screws to box,wire nuts included.Make sure power is off to that wire with tester.Good luck.

Yes. Our cabin is wired with regular 120v fixtures but connected to our 12v battery system off our solar. Works great. We prefer these bulbs over the cfl 12v bulbs we were using.

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.

Yes, I used these to replace a few non-switched units. When you install them you will leave the switch that is on the fixture on, and use your light switch as normal.

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

Yes it is hardwired. It gives off plenty of light when used for and undercabinet or small closet situation it would not be so good for general room lighting

I don't see why you couldn't wire both units to the sme fixture. That way if either one was switched on it would power the fixture.

Perhaps. The trick is to supply 12v DC to the lights. I think the transformer is in the little box with the blades that fit into the plug, so you would have splice in before the transformer. When I replaced my fluorescent under-counter lights, my solution was to pull the old lights, install a plug at the end of those hard wires, and then plug into that. A bit of extra work, but not bad.

Good day, I purchased some of this model LED tube from this particular company and the tubes work well. Realize that LED fixtures are NOT compatible with fluorescent ballasts, so you cannot plug them directly into a pre-existing fixture. The ballast must be removed or you may "hot wire" them around the ballast. Different manufacturers wire differently. There are four prongs: two on each end. You only need two of those prongs. Either the two on one end or the same two on opposite ends. I am currently on the road, so I cannot look at this particular tube to tell you how to wire it, but if you say you have "hot-wired" and it works, you have picked the correct wiring configuration. Yes, it is wired directly, no ballast. That's the way LEDs work. Hopefully this message has been some help or, at least, reassures you. Good luck. Bob

These lights take standard 115V AC power, which should be the same as your fluorescent lights, so yes, you should be able to use the existing wiring. I replaced a wall-mounted fluorescent light in a closet with one of these and it was an easy installation.
