I have a wardrobe with no lights or mains socket in it, I would like to put an LED light strip in there and somehow connect it to a pull cord switch and for power, I’d like to use batteries, probably 4xAA in a battery case which would have a positive and negative wire coming out of the end of the battery case, is there a way I can connect the pull cord switch, batteries and led strip together to make a light inside the wardrobe?
Many thanks
 
Nothing to stop you doing this. Take the negative from the battery box straight to the light, and the positive to the switch. Then out from the other side of the switch to the positive of the light.
 
Get lights with sensor so it comes on when the door opens or it senses a presence. I’m sure you can get them battery powered.

No pull cord required.
