Strobe Light
Posted on Friday, July 9, 2010 in Photography
How do you hook up a strobe light to a car that only has one wire?
I have a strobe light that only has one wire. I want to hook it up because I plow and such. But I'm not sure how to! Please help!
Chances are the one wire is positive and the mounting bracket is negative. If the mount is metal, not painted, and would conduct electrivity then it's probably a negative ground. Think of it like your trunk light in a car that only has one wire... it gets the ground from the chasis.
