Electrical Lighting

As electric lighting will include running wires, please keep in mind where you will place them and how you will hide the wires, if required.
The popular option for electric lighting is the twin-wire method.

The items required to begin are:
12v transformer power supply.
A fused power socket strip.
Power socket strip extensions if required

When you are purchasing your transformer, please note each transformer power supply will have a capacity on how many lights it will be able to light.
Our most popular UK transformer (EL188) runs 1 to 32 Light Bulbs.
There are different transformers for different plug outlets within the world, we currently stock for the UK, US, Canada, Japan, and Europe.

Next is the power socket strip our most popular strip (HW2203) has 12 slots for you to plug into your lights, this particular power strip
has a single master switch, however, you can purchase power strips that have individual switches for you to choose which lights you
would like to light which is handy when you don't want to light the whole dollhouse at once.

Depending on the number of lights you would like to use either now or in the future,
we do have a lighting Socket Power Strip Lighting Kit 15 Piece Wiring Set (MH0657) which could be more suitable for individuals who
have a larger house or project. Once you have the required items and you have chosen your lights,  we would always recommend
testing all equipment before you install the items within your doll's house. Our electrical lights are all 12V and come with a standard
white plug and white wires approximately length 600mm = 23.1/2 inches.

Take into consideration the amount of the wire that is available and where you would like to position the lights in each room.
When you are ready to install, the white plug can be removed from the end of the wire by removing the gold pins with pliers,
once you have taken the pins off, you can then remove the wires from the plug and pass them through the desired area/hole from
the room to the back of the doll's house, then you can feed the wire back through the plug and add the pins back on ready for you to attach to the power strip.
The power socket strip is usually placed at the back of the house for you to run all wires to this area.
We would recommend rechecking that all lights are working before adding the decoration to the house and attaching the light to the wall if required.

Helpful tips:

We would always recommend testing all lighting before you install them into your dollhouse to ensure they are working to enable you to resolve any issues that may need resolving.

As we ship worldwide, we always recommend checking all bulbs are secured into place as they may become loose on their journey to their new home.
If you have several lights, and one, in particular, isn't working, we would recommend taking a working bulb and trying in the non-working light, this is to eliminate this as an issue.  

If you have chosen to use Electrical lighting we would always recommend testing one light at a time, please keep in mind each transformer is only able to hold so much voltage.
It can be very easy to damage a bulb or blow a fuse accidentally when you are installing your doll's house lighting, it is always recommended to have spare items available when required.
