This is what i building its an under water light system using a two inch Y cap pvc in wich i bought three 50 watt halos, that fits into each y cap which there is four of so 12 lights all together.

assembly in the cap is just an outdoor light socket with a positive and neg wire, after hooking wires up positve to posi - neg to neg i cant even get one light to turn on maby bad connection but have tried everything to get it to work , wirenuts tape everything

I know im no ellectriacian , but it seemed preety simple when when i got the idea stuck in my head. the wire im using for batt wire is just a lamp cord from depot rated for 600 watts plenty big enough i think

Im getting preety frustrated any advise or tips would be greatly appriciated

if i am thinking right, running these lights off a 12v car battery, this would be similar to running KC fog lights on a truck. i have a couple on my truck and i never connected a negative wire to a battery. i ran wire from the battery to a switch then from the switch to the lights. but i did have to run a ground wire to the frame of the truck. if the lights dont have a ground then they wont work. instead of using a wire from a lamp, go to walmart and buy some electrical wire.

There's a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot.
