I want to put these in a boat. They will be fed directly with 12V DC current. Can I just wire them direct into a 12V switch?

Should work fine. Like anything else, might want to put a fuse in line though.

Driving it directly from the 12V in my car works fine. I assume a boat would be similar.

Mine runs on the 12V system in my tour boat. You just attach the right size terminals to the positive and negative wires for the 12V plug, and attach them to the + and - terminals of your 12v battery, or better yet, to + and - bus bars that are attached to your battery. I've liked this amp so far. Good luck.

I use this solar panel to charge two 12V batteries connected in series to produce 24V. my boat has two 12V batteries, but they are connected in parallel which is likely the case for your boat. Also, I believe that you should be looking for a 12V Solar panel, not 24V. Hope this helps.

No, unless you plan to supply it 12 volts DC, you will need to buy a convertor that should be available on Amazon

I don't know a whole lot about electricity but they are 12volt. I hooked up qty.11 in a boat directly to a fuse box with a toggle switch. Hopefully that helps?

That probably wouldn't work. They are designed for DC as you know. But there maybe an AC replacement LED out there somewhere.

I'm not sure I understand your question. These units are powered by 12v DC. They are for auto applications.

No you don't want to do this primarilly because it's made to be submurged in water to cool it. If use out if water it will break. Also it's 12 volt. It will light with 6 volt but won't be anywhere near as bright as a 12 volt feed.

You need to use a 12 Volt Direct Current (DC) power source for these as they are designed for a vehicles 12 Volt electrical system.

Yes you can wire them into any power circuit including of course - one which is switched. I did that with the several I bought. They work great and look great!

Yes, they come with a nice 120-230VAC to 12VDC Adapter. If you wanted to you could connect to any other source of 12VDC. It is a great product.

I believe you would be fine with a 12V DC source. I have connected them to Malibu ligting transformers providing 12V outside of my home without any issue. I have also connected them to 110V A/C through the dimmable drivers sold.

You can use the 12vdc. 3 amp. It's a 12vdc light strip. Works good on my boat

Yes, but not through this panel. The trolling motor usually needs a 50 amp service, these are 10 amp max each switch. On my Jon boat, I use the Bigfoot Trolling Motor Switch - Amazon.com‎

yes 12 volt dc with a positive and negative wire. Great lights for my pontoon boat

I don't know for sure but I think it would work. 6A at 12V will give you 72W and the lights are 27W. It certainly would give some bright light. I am quite happy with them on my boat.

The switch is operated by water pressure, which opens closes contacts against a spring. I haven't installed mine yet, to control a 12V pump, but there doesn't seem to be any reason they won't work fine with 12 volts.
