    When you connected the male and female at the beginning..I noticed you didn’t worry about polarity. Does it not matter if you are running c9 LED?

    My kit only came with side female plugs. Is that different than inline?

    • @lawnandlight

      They function as females and inlines. Pop the little back tab out to make it an inline.

    So I have c9 led lights but they are 3 wire and I have vampire plugs but is there a way to just use two of the 3 wires I did use a voltage detector and found the two wires with power but I read online I can’t use vampire plugs with the 3 wire lights but even my regular led Philips lights are 3 wire.

    • @lawnandlight

      I think the vampire plugs are for 2 wire only

    I recently bought a 60’ set from this company for my home. I had never put up Christmas lights before. The items arrived in a couple of days, and following the advice in this video, I was able to put everything up myself and it looks phenomenal! My wife is ecstatic with the result and my sister in law said it looks like a professional put them up. Looking forward to buying more and adding to my house in the future!

    Very informative. Question.. I have a garage that is separated from the house and is essentially your yellow section 1. How would you outline the garage? Would you still start at bottom right and go up, across the top left, and then down.. would you continue the same line and go right across the gutter line to where you started? Or would you still do 2 separate lines?

    What are the typical months to install lights? Where I live early-mid November it’s windy and stormy. Is it better to start early and get them up for people or tough it out in those cold dark months?

      It depends on the market and what customers are used to. We start October 1st and run pretty heavy through the end of November.

    Hello lawn n light Quick question when installing vampire female and male plugs Is there a specific Way to feed it in? Like the side with the writing on the wire can be fed any way? Thank you

    • @lawnandlight
      @lawnandlight 19 днів тому

      yes, we found a better method the other day. Look at the male or female plug. theres writing on one side - the ribbed part of the wire goes on the plug writing side (male or female)

    Hey Shane, thanks again for another great video! I have one question about those male and female connectors. Thank you for detailing that for the inline female type connection, polarity is important and we want to align the big plug slot pin with the wire that has writing. Pardon my ignorance but...does it also matter when we are installing male connectors that we also note the polarity and install accordingly?

    • @lawnandlight
      @lawnandlight 19 днів тому

      yes, same concept - we found a better method the other day. Look at the male or female plug. theres writing on one side - the ribbed part of the wire goes on the plug writing side (male or female)

    Thank you, Brother Shane for a wonderful, wonderful and inspiring video. I have been wanting to light the exterior of my house for years but the professionals in my area are prohibitively expensive. This video and many of your other videos have given me the courage to do my own house for the first time this year. I have a two story house with a mansard roof which presents some unique challenges. Not the least of which is that I don't own a ladder tall enough to reach the top. It never occurred to me that I could rent one! Sure enough the home improvement stores in my area rent them very reasonably! Thank you very, very much for mentioning rental ladders!

      That would have to be an inline male which is frowned upon in the industry. Best to start power at the end of a line

      I'm going to do mine with 3M Command Hooks this year. Not the cheapest way of doing it...just the best. If it's cold out when you hang your lights, use a heat gun or hair dryer to gently warm the areas where you are going to install the hooks. The adhesive they use on those hooks does not set up well against a cold surface.

    I'm sure you are good at what you do. But this is a very generic video and very impersonal from the customer standpoint. But maybe that's how things are where you are located at. It's hard to believe that people would pay top dollar for just outlining their roof I've done very high on custom Christmas decorations for years, every home. Or commercial building is custom designed for each client, including all the trees and the reeds. Our handmade, what's the directions? I handmade on them and the lights are done in very customized configurations.. To do one location will take either one full day and night or two full days at night with a crew of 5 to 7 people working nonstop.. Plus a lot of preliminary design and shopping and making things and putting things together. But I do wish you well in your business. I'm sure if you offer more. Customize creative options. You would make a lot more money, but you have to have a very reliable staff
