No, it includes 14v bulbs, so use 12v from your PC power supply. Yellow wire and a black wire, hooked up to either prong. (Doesn't matter which)
theob42:
so black wire to 1 prong and yellow to the other?
Ginsu Victim:
yep
theob42:
oh just remembered, i ahve 4 bulbs, can i connect them in series? (daisy chain)
oh and crap i just checked out my power supply its one of those modular power supplies which is good but all the cables/wires are black :( .any ideas?
EDIT: good found the manual and its got detailed numbering of the wires but no colours. so im gussing the black was the ground and the yellow the 12v??
