Step 4Electrical
Now I will cut down the cord for the power strip to a more reasonable 8 inches. This will allow me to hide the cord very efficiently.
I also ended up cutting a little deep on the green, white and black interior wires, so I shrink tube those prior to using a crimped butt connector to attach the wires. Never can be too careful when dealing with electricity, and although the cuts were minor, why risk it.
I then shrink tubed the connections again, and then (not pictured) wrapped the three wires in electrical tape to ensure no snags could occur. Now I plug it in and give it a test! Two yellow lights means all is good in the electrical world.
