Hi all … wondering if anyone can help … we have inherited an extensive set of dart lights.. they are missing g the adapter and out to go with and so at moment are useless .. I’ve contacted the supplier (see pic) who says the 3 pin set up was stopped a few years back and all are now 2 pin . And they don’t have the relevant adapters any more …
my question is how can I get these working ? Can I rewire them somehow ?
Anyone have any knowledge would be most appreciated … or they’ll be binned ..
cheers

Get yourself three 9V batteries (PP9 best, but PP3 might just do for test purposes), lie them flat on their sides and plug them together in series to form a 27V battery. Cut the three pin plug off, bare the ends of the three wires, mark them somehow, and try them two at a time, both ways around, on the battery terminals and see what happens. You've nothing to lose.
