Hi All

Im in training to become an electrician, but this is seriously confusing me (and my qualified friend for that matter)

i live in uk (230v supply) but want to buy two lights from America (120v)

after searching on google and asking my mate for help, I'm still none the wiser. So far I've had suggestions to wire the 2 lights in series (120+120=240v)

This all sounds convincing but obviously I don't fancy blowing the fitting up as they're a one off piece.

When reading the fittings they say

9.1 Va
120 volta
60Hz
9.0 w
0.075 Inom

they're LED New York "don't walk" signs. One with the hand and one a walking man like this


ICC/ Dialialight LED Pedestrian Signal Animation

i want to wire them into a spur so they can be switch when I like

are there any step down transformer or anything I can get to power these? I've see the 230v to 12v transformers for downlighting etc
