Q: Is the power cord and supply proprietary? In other words, can I cut the extension cord and splice to a typical landscape wire?

Yes, it is possible to cut and splice the extension cable that comes with each light while leaving the light and proprietary cable connector undamaged. I have done this for longer cable runs using heavier gauge cable and a 3rd party 24v power supply.

Q: Are these light compatible with an existing low voltage cable and power supply unit? Or will this require to rewire everything?

I had my original Hue transformer die when lightning hit out house. But I replaced it with a 250W 24v transformer. Instead of using 3 hue transformers, all 14 lights are running on one, with plenty of wattage to spare to add more units.

Question 1

In the extension bollard, does it contain a t shaped connector? if not, where do you get them? already have the lily system installed.

Accepted Answer

A: Yes it comes with a T connector, bollard lamp, stake/spike, and extension cord. If you are purchasing multiple extensions, use the T connector from the last extension lamp to connect the first or base unit bollard to the chain. The base unit does not come with a T connector. The last lamp on the chain does not need the T connector as it’s cord can connect directly to its extension cable which connects to lamp n-1’s T connector. Ignore the video and literature that shows the final T connector capped on the downstream side at the final lamp. For example, for a setup with 1 base bollard and 2 extension bollards. Connect the cable from the AC adapter to the base unit’s extension cable (if needed), then connect the extension cable, base bollard and the #1 extension bollard’s cable to the #2 extension bollard’s T connector. Next connect the #1 extension cable, #1 extension bollard and #2 extension cable to the #1 extension’s T connector. Finally connect the #2 extension cable to the #2 lamp. Logically:

Socket<=plug--[AC brick]--base cable--[=]ext2 T-connector+BB[=]--ext1 cable--[=]ext1 T-connector+#1EB[=]--ext2 cable--[=]--#2EB

Where:
[=] = connection
+BB = Base Bollard Ts into #2 extension bollard’s T-connector 
+#1EB = #1 Extension Bollard Ts into #2 extension bollard’s T-connector 
+#2EB = #2 Extension Bollard connects to end of chain without T-connector

Question 2

How high of a temperature is this rated for?

Accepted Answer

113 F
