Can this be hard wired? Cut into two shorter lengths? Child-proof?

"Can this be hard wired? Yes, cut the plug off the end and hard wire into a box.Cut into two shorter lengths? NO, it is one extruded aluminum section.Child-proof?" No more so than a normal wall receptacle. Put the plastic insulators into unused ports perhaps.

You can do anything you want to do to it, if you have the desire and ability to do the work. The first thing I did when getting it is take it all apart, tear the rocker switch and cover off and turn it around rewiring it all inside to put the switch in right, because Tripplite was so stupid, they put it in that when you use the first outlet, there is no room to get your finger in to open the cover! An even better idea would be to put a better switch in there or just pay a little more and get a better unit, this thing is OK, but just not the quality I was used to getting years ago from Tripplite.

Anything can be done to it. But why? It's a great product as is. Just get two smaller strips.

The wires for power are about 6 ft and cannot be cut. There is one additional wire that is used for induction and shorter (2ft I think)

Yes, it has a clear spiral cord on the bottom, which can be plugged into a outlet. From what I recall, it could also be hard-wired. Of course, you would need an electrician for that. If you have a outlet nearby, easiest way to go. The cord is about 30" long, stretched, about 35".

Shouldn't be a problem. U can cut the chain and wires to any desirable length. It's very soft lighting with frosted glass cover so as an accent would be perfect.

Yes if you know how!! My husband is very handy and was able to hardwire it. Otherwise you have to plug it in.

Yes it must be hardwired, but only two wires must be connected. If I did it anyone can. Good luck

I honestly don't know for sure, but the cord could probably be cut then hard wired. Just have an electrician tell you for sure and do it as well.

Yes it can be hard wired. AND... I really like the garbage disposal (if one could really LIKE a garbage disposal!),. It's pretty quiet!

You could easily cut and splice a longer cord (it is just two wires). Hope this helps JOHN

I would say yes but they do have to be hard wired so adding some chain would be the least of your dilemma. peace

I talked with my son and he said, as I can determine, there is one wire leaving the device and splits into two. He isn't sure both of them are needed. He never tried it out. Hope this is helpful. It works like a dream!!

It splits closer to the end. But the wires could be split further without damaging the wire cover I believe.

Yes to both questions, and works great... Just needs a slightly longer plug wire.

the wire can be cut, my son cut mine so I had extra wire in case I wanted to use it somewhere else

It's not a "fixed" split -- it's like zip cord. You can split it as far back as you want to -- even make two separate cords out of it.

Length may be short, but easy to lengthen...either cut and splice or buy the spade connectors to make an extension cable. yes you can cut out the switch, its garbage anyway, and add your own. That's what I did on all of mine.

Yes. I tried cutting it with heavy scissors and that didn't work. With wire cutters, it was easy.
