[QUOTE="A, post: 411855, member: 27287"] Hi All Need some advice, i am looking to power my burglar alarm siren box by hard wiring to the lighting circuit in the attic. The siren came with a ac/dc 12v plug but i was thinking of spurring off the light, adding a fused spur and then connecting to a 240v to 12v transformer (cutting the plug off and using the wire to connect to the transformer). Is this at all doable? or just a recipe for disaster. Is there any other way i could get around connecting the siren box? I want to avoid running wires down the front of the house and also drilling into the bedroom to plug into a socket. The attic seems the most effective way Any help/suggestions would be much appreciated A [/QUOTE]
