Is there an opening for an electrical wire? If not would it be difficult to cut an opening? Thanks

My husband also just informed me that there are no openings BUT he just notched a small enough opening at the very bottom and then it's practically hid when you feed your wire thru and place it in the position you want IT in! YOU WON'T BE SORRY. .... WE LOVE OUR LIGHTS! !!!! GOOD LUCK! !! :)

It is completely hollow inside, if you mount it over a 4x4 post there is still enough room to run the wire inside, as the post is smaller than the inside opening

The wire between the hard plastic ends can be cut and additional wire can be spliced in if you have the skills. However if you had to ask this question are probably not qualified to cut and extend the wires by splicing in additional wire length. Seek a professional electrician or experienced electronics hobbiest to assist you.

Yes, there is a split that runs from the outer edge to the inner opening. You shouldn't need to cut anything.

I haven't done that yet, but in the instruction sheet you will find 'how to' depending on your make & model. On mine, the procedure is to remove a connector & cut a wire.

There is no opening to access the batteries. However, it would not be very difficult to cut the fuzzy red material to make an opening, replace the batteries, then sew or velcro it back up.

When you cut the ropelught in the designated spot you expose the inner wire which can accept a new plug that comes with the kit. It is very easy to do if you use a sharp pair of scissors, the rope also has marks on it telling you where you can cut it.

the wire can be cut, my son cut mine so I had extra wire in case I wanted to use it somewhere else

This is not the best or cheapest tool for that kind of work. I have done it but it takes.a few steps. I'd strip the outer.jacket.away with.the.blade to expose the.length of wires I need to have exposed. Then I either carefully cut down through the insulation and spin the.blade to make a circumfrential cut. Then you may be able to pull the insulation off or grab the insulation with the pliers and pull it off. The other way is to shave the insulation away from the wire. Either way you'll want to be careful not to NICK the wire. To cut the wire itself you could use the pliers to bend it back and forth until the wire fatigues and breaks, or use the file and file part way through then bend it once or.twice and it will snap.

nope, but you could easily splice a wire in between the plug. I got news for you, 1 of these doesn't do much!

The wire comes out of the sconce as in the picture. You could pull it back and make it exit the back to hardwire, but you'd still have a hole on the surface that was obviously intended for the wire.

Yes. That is the same one. I have changed out two. Just position the sliding sides to where your wire comes in. No cutting. Very easy replacement if not in a difficult area.

not easily - There is not a "block" for hard wiring. However, what I've done is, I have a cord, with a male end, and the other end is the "hard wired" part.

Hi i am sorry i havent put mine together was thinking the same thing when looking at the picture i am thinking it is probably open half way because you need to run the wires through and it wouldn't be smart to have it closed then you need to drill it or cut it. Sorry hope my opinion helps.

Yeah, i had my wire cut, so i know. I would bury mine next time, but i would never advise anyone else to, since i'm not a pro. It's heavy duty, but i would get large outdoor rated electric conduit to run it through, w elbows to take it out of the ground on each end. Maybe more hassle than unplugging each time.

You can cut the wire and hard wire in a box. The wire is low gauge so it breaks easily mine are just plugged in.

Yes, but it will require some extremely basic electrical skills; ie stripping wire. Figure out how much you need and then add 4-6 inches to keep in the light fixture (this is a common practice). Once you know your length plus the 4-6 inches, adjust your base so that you have your desired length on the correct side, and the excess on the other. Measure 4-6 inches on the back side of the base, and cut. Next, you want to strip the outer plastic to expose the wires. Take a pocket knive, scissors, or box cutter and cut around the the plastic outer layer. You want to cut this so that you can easily pull it off without cutting the plastic in the individual wires. Pull the outer sheeth off and remove and paper or string filler. Next take a pair of strippers (purchased at any home improvement store) and strip 1/4" off the edge of the wire. That's it! There should be a ton of YouTube vids on how to do this if you need a visual

You can add another wire the wire is removable. I have removed the wire to cut through a block of cheese. I repurchased item originally had returned it.
