What I wanted to know is whether the Light Hub would accept my lamp wires using their Linking Plugs that you get when you order the Just Plug system.
I'm not sure I understand what you're asking, but what I did was take some of the Just Plug wires, cut the wire, and then solder the leads from my own LEDs onto the Just Plug wires. It worked that way.
I could not (or would not) find any plugs by themselves that I could put my own wires into.
Why did I go to all this work? I was just starting out, and I wanted a way to dim my LEDs. The Just Plug light hubs have a dimmer switch. I thought I would try it.
It turned out to be more work, more expensive, and each light hub would only take four plugs, unless I would buy a port sharing hub, etc.
If you figure a way out to do what you want with this, please let us know. Like I said, I have some Just Plug stuff sitting in a box, and I would love to use the stuff.
