Kellzey Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 It seems I can’t help from buying lights and I have no room left on my power strip! I was wondering if it’s possible to put 2 power strips on one transformer. I have a 20 watt transformer and my total number of bulbs is probably going to be around 18-20. Just trying to save from buying another transformer if I can help it. Thanks! Kelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fov Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 I haven't actually tried this yet, but I want to do the same thing and I asked my dad (an electrical engineer, and my go-to guy on electricity questions) if it would be okay. He said yes. I'm planning to stack the metal prongs underneath the screws so both houses are connected to the same transformer. I'm using lead-in wires, not power strips, but the prongs are the same. (Apparently the metal prong things are called "spade lugs". Who knew?!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kellzey Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 Ok thanks! I guess I’ll try stacking them too. And I had no idea they were called spade lugs either! Haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
