| Marquee light fixture from Happ |
| (1/1) |
| Captain Bingo:
Hi, I am building an arcade cabinet, and was buying up the "necessary" items, and purchased a flourescent light fixture from Happ. I assumed (mistake, i know) that it would have a regular power plug on it, but it's just two bare wires. Can anyone help me how to get it powered? I can somehow go to a power strip or a switch, but not real electrically savvy. Thanks!! |

all you need is a male connector to solder it to, yoou can find them at almost any electronics store. |

Which one did you buy? The Happs 18" one is the same one you can buy in walmart for 7 bux |

Yes, unfortunately I bought it from Happ first. Oh well, hindsight is 20/20. If I had to do this all over again, and I may if it goes well, I would do things a lot differently. Primarily, sign up for this board before buying everything. :'( Thanks for all your help, I'll try not to electrocute myself. |

If you go to Home Depot, they sell "lamp wire" which is a wire with a plug at the end and and 2 stripped wires on the other side. That should be what you need. |
