Is it OK to strip, and twist the blue and red wires together that attach to the power source?

The red is the constant power source from the battery. And te blue is a remote the blue can be run off of a toggle switch to turn the amp on and off or if you twist it in with te red it will be on all the time unless disconnected.

yes but it will stay on all the time the blue wire is so it cuts on and off with the switch

If you cut the plug off the end of the power cord, you could then separate and strip the wires. Then you would be able to "hard wire" to whatever power source you have.

If you're asking about stripping it to the copper wire, definitely not! That'll be very dangerous. The clips go over the insulated wires, one on each wire. A normal house has just two "hot" wires. Be very careful when working inside a live panel, if you have any doubts, get an electrician.

There are a few options. Manually solder them together, use "strip to strip connector" (also called "any angle turn connector), or "connector box".

no. While you can use them, you can also untwist the plugs and insert a wire. First you have to strip the wire back about 1/4 to 1/2".

You would connect it to the Black (Line), White (Neutral) and Bare or Green (Ground)... And then cap off the Red wire with a wire nut. It would no longer be switchable, but you probably don't want that function anyway.

No, multiple strips should not be directly connected in series end-to-end (see Product Description). Instead, multiple strips should be wired in parallel (power source must be of adequate capacity).

If you're talking about a long roll strip, one end has the pin connectors and the other end has wires to splice what I did was cut in half,bought a separate power supply and spliced wires. If you're talking about short LED strips, I don't think you can cut those and use again without Soldering

U will be fine. I had two wires and connected them accordingly. I left the middle screw unattached. Mine is connected to security system box. All works just fine.

Wire a 3-way switch. Or just disconnect the 2 wires and twist them together.

I'm assuming you want to trim the plugs after they're installed. If that's the case, yes I would...very carefully.

Strip the rubber off of about 1/2 inch of the wire.( both pieces, both ends) You have 2 wires, Identify if either wire has any markings (IE. .stripes or lines, in order to match them up) In any case twist the 2 single wires to the other single wires ( not all together but one to one) tape so that the two wires do not touch. You should be fine.

You can add strips, and they come with the needed connection. You are limited only by the output of the transformer I think...

if i were attaching a power strip i would twist tye it with tyes that would hold up and be electrical proof vs electric strip on metal with some twist tyes that have a metal strip in the tye --- just a suggestion:-)

Yes cut one end off of the red wire long enough to reach the battery and place the fuse and housing in the engine bay away from anything warm. Then take the rest of the red wire and run it all the way to the amp. You can screw it down to something, but its not important. You can get away with zip ties.

Remove all the crap you no longer need. Ballast etc. Wire directly to the power, 12v. Waalaa.......!

Yessir, i recommend doing that over the connectors. They connectors can be a bit sketchy.
