Can these lights be directly hardwired into a junctions box, or do they require a a transformer?

They come with small led drivers. A small box approximately .75 x .75 x 1.25 inches.

Yes they need transformer, look on the web site it has transformer and if more than one fixture they make a multi port module to plug them into then to a transformer, make sure total amount of lights dont exceed the transformer total wattage. Or you will burn out the transformer

Transformer required and is included with each light. Transformer is small enough to fit into an electrical junction box.

These can be hardwired inside a junction box to a small included transformer.

There is a regular plug for plugging into an outlet. You just can't plug a regular string of lights to these.

they won't work because your transformer has to have some minimal load to work properly, when you installed ONLY led bulbs load of those led bulbs is probably to small so the transformer doesn't work.I Suggest to install 3 of incadescent and 3 of led and then it should work. you can also try 2 of incadescent and 4 led etc.

Yes these can be hardwired. They come with pigtailed ends that can be used. Use a LED magnetic transformer to match wattage and 16/2 LV cable. The tape is cuttable every 3" and LV cable can be soldered to the ends if needed.

The lights themselves plug into a blue converter box wich has a cable that has a switch and a molex connector. None of the cables are very long but that's easily solveable if your good with a soldering iron.

Hi Felicia,Yes, these lights can be hardwired. I have two in my bathroom and one in my closet. I think you will enjoy them.Sara

IF they are 12V 4 watt? Then Yes, just remember to add up all the watts (each lights wattage) and be sure the total does not exceed the transformer wattage.

it does say direct to transformer, but I cut off the spade connector and wired it to an existing wire attached to multiple lights

First you have to ask the manufacturer if those are dimmable lights. If so you will have no problem the transformer.

I don't think so. The transformer needs full power from your wall socket. You would insert a 12 volt dimmer between this device and your string of lights.

These lights are 12 volt DC powered. Your home is wired for 110 AC. You could use a transformer but probably not the best solution for your needs. These lights are hard wired and not plug in. All of the above aside, I am happy with the product and installed 6 of them on my boat.

Any low voltage transformer will work.. I bit of warning. If you live in an area that gets a lot of rain (like Central Kentucky) be prepared to replace a lot of bulbs. The fixture looks good, but isn't waterproof.

This light is designed to be hardwired to a circuit, no 3-prong plug is provided (though I suppose you could wire one to it).

These lights are powered by a DC voltage and use USB plug into light. If you are using ac voltage you will a transformer. Ac to Dc

no no friend, they give you a transformer with this light so just bring your BX or romex to a 1900 box with a bx connector then just connect any two of the blue or brown wires from the supplied transformer to any of the black or white wires

No, this particular version needs to be hardwired. There is another version, however, that works by just plugging it in. Be sure to check that out when you look in the descriptions for these lights.

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.
