You may also need wire cutters/wire stripper if you need to cut some of your wires shorter to suit your space. You will also need a screwdriver, twist on wire connectors ( aka wire nuts or Marrettes), and electrical tape. The metal plate I got is what will attach to the wall to keep the wires separate from the wall (as they are not buried in a box like most hard wired light fixtures would be.

I have read other tutorials where they simple use an extension cord instead of purchasing the plug in wire piece like I did. I also went to my local electrical supply shop and picked up a plug set (it has a plug on one end, with a little thingy in the middle to turn the light on and off, and then open wires at the other end). I think I spent just under $30 for it? I can’t quite remember, but I remember thinking it was a reasonable price and then being even more pleased when it was on sale once I got to the till. I started out with this Outdoor Lantern fixture that I picked up at my local Home Hardware ( here is a similar item). We have used our light fixture for three years with no issues but, as I said, I am not liable for you taking on this project on your own. Be careful and consult a certified electrician if you are in doubt. This project is completely at your own risk. Warning: I may be a woman of many skills and qualifications, but certified electrician is not one of them.

Did you happen to catch my big Command Central Station reveal that I shared on Friday? Well, today’s project was made to add a little light to that space and I am going to show you how to turn a hard wired light fixture into a plug in light! In fact, I kind of enjoy routine and structure… as long as there is a little bit of room to be spontaneous every now and then.Īnd at least we are organized and ready for the routine (as well as the resulting onslaught of PAPER). Please don’t even consider this as a means to disable auto start-stop.Well, this morning is the official wake-up call for real life again.Īfter two amazing holiday weeks over the Christmas break, we will all be heading out the door back to school and work and I bet within the day we will barely remember this escape from our daily routine.īut routine isn’t all bad. The list goes on and on for built-in towing optimizations, and each and every one can be a problem if there’s not actually a trailer connected. Advanced trailer anti-sway controls are enabled, which may brake wheels independently to reduce trailer sway. Rear-view camera overlays used to visualize the vehicle path are disabled. Rear ultrasonic object detection and cross traffic alert disables so as not to falsely alarm due to the presence of the trailer. Blind spot systems will expand their range to account for the length of the trailer. Fuel-based remaining distance estimates are adjusted for the reduced fuel mileage. Transmission shift pressures will increase. Modern trucks have many advanced towing features that work well while towing. On the surface, this appears to be a clever solution, but as it turns out, it’s one of the worst solutions. With this hack a trailer light test plug is inserted into the trailer plug, fooling the truck into thinking a trailer is attached. While a trailer is attached auto start-stop will not enable.
