I want to use this in a wet plate dark box adaptation and powered from a 12V batter not a computer power supply. Can this be readily done?

This is an LED kit made specifically for computers, so you would have to modify it and cut the power supply connector and make your own connection to the 12V battery to make it work.

Its a molex fitting, you would have to cut it and the cable and make your own attachment to the battery

Now I have no flippin idea what a "wet pleat dark box daption" is, but this runs on a 12/5V molex adapter to a circuit board an a PCI braket (see http://www.custompcreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/nzxt-case-lighting-overview-008.jpg) I would suggest you using something from here: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=led%20stripes if this project isn't for PC's. They cost the same amount with longer strips. This product is made for PC's and PC's only.

If you can find a molex connector you could use just the pos (12V) and neg wires to connect to your battery. Here's a link to help you figure out which wire you need. http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l32/rougeneon97/dew%20Heater%20DIY/molexpinout_zpsdeb42ea2.png

Yes you can but not directly, you have to use a low voltage relay 12/24v to activate.

Absolutely, if you wire up the appropriate 12V battery with the current capacity you need for the target runtime. It would be a relatively trivial hack to do if you want to, but is it designed to do so? No.

You can do that. However, please understand that there will be voltage drop along the wire and you may not get 12V to the converter. How much voltage drop it will be depends on the length and quality of the wire, also the power consumption.

You can use it with a downsizing to 110 watt converter. You need to adapt your voltage to your device, not vise versa

Yes 12v is too much, use only 5v unless you want to replace that surface mount regulator.

best to run panel power through a voltage regulator then to a 12 volt battery , then from the battery to the pump.thats how I run mine with no problems.

Not directly, no. The receiver is only 5v so you would need an additional control that's bult to handle 12v. For my project I used a 12v variable speed control (also ordered from Amazon).

I'm sure you could, but at the rate this thing sucks down power it'll cost you some money. I had mine plugged into a "thermo cube" and let it turn on and off unsupervised.

I haven't tested it, but I don't see why not. It's just a remote on/off switch. As far as I know, a switch that does 12v will also do 6v. Quote from the Internet: "The switch doesn't care (generally) what the voltage is (within reason)." - Danny in CO

I would think you would need to by a converter. This works off of 110-120 volts.

The panel can supply 12v dc. If your device can charge off of this voltage, you would be ok. Not sure how long it takes to charge though.
898473
I don't see why not but this might be overkill for that. As for the connection, I believe the site where this is listed contains several plans depending on what you are trying to do. You can run this from a 9 volt battery so power should not be a problem.

I fried a couple experimenting with voltages above 12V. The circuitry got very hot and failed. The lower voltages can be accommodated with the calibration pod. I have successfully powered it with a small solar panel with power ranges all over the board on cloudy days.

I believe in a crude way it will work because the battery should clamp automatically the voltage down. However, this can only be a temporary solution. The charge controller is indeed the way to go. Try midnight solar

As others have said, it requires 12v DC. You'll need a power supply for operating it from household power.

You could as long as it was isolsted from the utility power grid with a transfer switch or equal, keep in mind thstit is only 120vac output and your house panel is most likely 120/240. Better use is for emegency backup seeSunbyrd.com or kcbyrdelectric.com will link you there. We use them in a stand alone backup systemtnx, kee.
