Do you wire the in series or parallel. Thanks

It's going to depend on how you're setting it up, but most of the time you want to wire it in parallel.

A great way to do it in parrellellel is to use one of those .67 dollar extension cords that has three female outlets at the female end.

You put a dimmer on that extension cord and now you have a dimmer that you can plug three things into. one could be lamp and other two could be for flex watt.

Then you just wire your flex-watt your usual way and plug it into the socket on the extension cord that has the dimmer on it. $.67 extension cords can be bought at walmart.

I refer you to this thread on how to do soldering. It is the full explanation. : gallery.pethobbyist.com/index.pl?photo=91399 Please read that thread completely. It has all the info for which you seek!

My way is cheap and effective. You do not need to use the expensive plastic clamps which are specifically designed for flex-watt. Soldering give a cheaper AND better connection!
cheers.

P.S. Please have a great Flex Watt Day!
