I would like to use this product in a valance above a long mirror. Can I get a twelve foot unit?

Glen,
The longest model available is 18-3/8in. You could like together several models with the included in-line connectors to reach your 12ft length.By Peter from New York, NY on August 10, 2012
Hi.
I need to connect 10 7/8 + 18 3/8 + 18 3/8 + 14 5/8 of very thin light bars in one line from one switch.
What kind and how many drivers and connectors do I need?
By Jacob from Pegasus Lighting on August 10, 2012
Answer:
Peter,
To calculate the driver needed, we simply add the wattage of each fixture. Here are the fixtures you list:
PRULER-3 (10-7/8in) - 3.75 watts
PRULER-5 (18-3/8in) - 6.25 watts
PRULER-5 (18-3/8in) - 6.25 watts
PRULER-4 (14-5/8in) - 5 watts
Total = 21.25 watts
With this many fixtures, you are going to need 2 drivers. I would recommend (2) 12W drivers. You will also need (2) Power Connectors. (Both are available on Accessories tab).
The fixtures include inline connectors, which allow for the fixtures to link directly to each other. If you need to link across a short distance, then I would recommend flexible connectors.
By Scott from Deerfield, IL on August 10, 2012
Answer:
Those 4 fixtures together require more power than 1 driver can supply. I would recommend 2-12w drivers (1 for the 10 7/8" and one 18 3/8", the other driver for the other 18 3/8" and the 14 5/8".) Both drivers can be fed from the same 120v circuit. Switching can be achieved by connecting the driver feed (120v) to your light switch. When I installed my lights, I installed 3 drivers and switched them on one wall switch. I hope this answers your question.By Matt from Glen Rock, Pennsylvania on December 26, 2012
I need to connect 14 5/8 + 14 5/8 + 18 3/8 + 18 3/8 of very thin light bars in one line from one switch. On the other side of my kitchen I need to connect 14 5/8 + 14 5/8 + 18 3/8 to another switch.
What kind and how many drivers and connectors do I need?

Answer:
Matt:
For the first set of 14 5/8 + 14 5/8 + 18 3/8 + 18 3/8...
Since the total wattage is 22.50, it will be necessary to use two drivers, (1) PLED-DR12-350 (http://www.pegasuslighting.com/led-driver-12w-350ma-hardwire.html) for the two 14-5/8in & (1) PLED-DR18-350 (http://www.pegasuslighting.com/led-driver-18w-350ma-hardwire.html) for the two 18-3/8. Generally both drivers can be controlled by one switch.
Will also need (2) Power Connectors PRULER-CONKIT.
(2) Flexible Connectors choice of 6, 12 or 36in.
For the second set - 14 5/8 + 14 5/8 + 18 3/8, Total wattage of 16.25, (1) PLED-DR18-350 Driver can be used + (1) Power Connector (PRULER-CONKIT) + (2) Flexible Connectors, 6, 12 or 36in.By Rick from Orillia, Ontario on April 2, 2013
I would like to replace a light already wired in with 2 of your power supplies and then run generic wire through the cupboards to the various light strips. Are connectors available to hook to wire?
By Jacob from Pegasus Lighting on April 2, 2013
Answer:
Rick,
The light bars connect to the hardwire drivers using a power connector accessory (available on the Accessories tab).
Then, the drivers connect to line voltage using household wire. Most of the drivers have built in terminal blocks for making this connection.By Mark from Greenwich Ct 06830 on April 10, 2013
I would like to install these fixtures but we have installed #14-2 Romex wire to each cabinet location. Can we remote the drivers and will these lights work with a standard magnetic transformer like some LED fixtures do?
By Jacob from Pegasus Lighting on April 11, 2013
Answer:
Mark,
Take a look at the Accessories tab for compatible hardwire drivers that you can remote wire.
I would not recommend using a magnetic transformer because these LEDs need constant current supplied NOT constant voltage.By CHRIS RAFFETTO from LOS ANGELES, CA on September 20, 2012
Is this available in cool white?

Is this unit a direct wire or plug in?
By Chris at Pegasus Lighting on April 22, 2013
Answer:
These lights require an LED driver power supply that is ordered separately on the Accessories tab. Each of the LED drivers compatible with this product are hardwire. Thus, I guess you could say that the unit is direct wire. In addition, you will also need to purchase a power connector to connect the LED light bar to the LED driver.By Amy from New York City on January 24, 2013
Hi, I'd like to get 2 of the 18 3/8 inch bars for under cabinet hard wired installation. I will be connecting them. I have no idea which driver would be appropriate. 8, 12 or 15? Also, in the installation example drawings I"m seeing the driver exposed under the cabinet near the light bars. Could I put the driver in the cabinet itself and feed the wire through a hole in the bottom of the cabinet? Let me know thanks,
Amy
By Jacob from Pegasus Lighting on January 25, 2013
Answer:
Amy,
For two 18-3/8in fixtures, you will need a driver rated for more than 12.5 watts, so I would recommend either the 15W driver or the 18W driver.
You can place the driver in the cabinet but it would be wise to check with an electrician to make sure you aren't violating any local electrical codes.

Is this 120v?
By Jacob from Pegasus Lighting on October 9, 2012
Answer:
Catherine,
The drivers that are required for connecting these lights to power are rated for 100 - 240 Volts.By Rod from Maryland on October 9, 2012
Answer:
Yes, 120 volts A/C is the input.
Output however is 2.8 - 28 volts D/C 350ma.
The variation on output voltage indicates minimum volts for small light strips - up to 28 volts for a sequence of more light strips.

Is this product approved for closet installation?
By Jacob from Pegasus Lighting on October 18, 2012
Answer:
Lane,
Yes, the light bars will work well in a closet application. By Todd from Minneapolis on October 18, 2012
Answer:
I purchased these VTLB for a closet but had to return because the power supplies are not up to code for install In the state of Minnesota. They must be enclosed to hide the exposed live household wires, however they are not approved for such enclosed use. Kind of a catch-22. Had to go with another more bulky LED with built in power supply, too bad because the VTLB LED bars themselves were pretty slick.By Allan Small from Ashburnham, MA on February 12, 2013
I want to install one 18-3/8" light bar with a Pruler power connector, and I'd like it to be dimmable. Since this will be under 7 watts, can I use the 9-Watt 140mA Dimmable Electronic Plug-In Constant Current LED Driver with it - or am I obliged to use the 15 Watt 350 mA dimmable driver?
By Jacob from Pegasus Lighting on February 13, 2013
Answer:
Allan,
The 9W 140mA plug-in driver will NOT work with these fixtures.
The PRuler requires a 350mA constant current driver.
If you want to dim your installation, then you will need to use the 15W 350mA driver.
