    What transformer is needed for these lights please?

    When I set up my Christmas outdoor lights this year, i realised that I must be using the wrong transformer as half the lights on the string are not powered or dull. Looking at the label on the lights, I can see it says 36V ac 11.52 W. The white plug you can see the lights going into on the image...

    How do I safely connect these two?

    As seen in the pictures, I need the pigtail style connected to the other style. It needs to be fully weather proofed and safe as this is wiring for a light bar on my Jeep Wrangler. So please let me know how to safely do so, rather than just shoving the two together! Thanks in advance

    Not seen one of these for a while

    This is a disconnected switch in my in laws storage shed. Sorry about the paintwork, it got sprayed when the walls were done. I never realised it’s just an old toggle switch inside, mounted at an angle.
