LED Christmas Rope Lights

Useful info on: LED Christmas Rope Lights
Sometimes decorating with lights for the holidays can be a real pain because precise measurements are often needed to make sure that lengths will be sufficient, or an over abundance won’t need to be disguised. One of the amazing features that LED Christmas rope lights has to offer is that they can be cut almost precisely to length, unlike any other form of lighting. When looking for a complete freedom to create infinite numbers of designs done in lights, LED Christmas rope lights afford that freedom.

Cut to Custom Lengths

LED Christmas rope lights come on a spool which is generally 16 ft in length. It is possible to cut it within a few inches of the exact length because there are scissor icons along the rope to identify areas that can be cut. There is no second guessing whether or not the circuit will be broken if the cutting guides are adhered to.

Indoor/Outdoor Mounting

Because the tiny LED lamps are enclosed in tubular plastic casing, the lights are just as safely used outdoors for any holiday decorating purpose. Run them along fences, around trees, up and down bushes and shrubbery, or even write “Merry Christmas” along an exterior wall. They are waterproof and weather resistant.

Mounting Clips

Another benefit of LED Christmas rope lights is that there are optional mounting clips available to make the task much easier. The directions suggest that a clip be used for every 12” of rope, which is to say, at intervals of approximately one foot. Not only can these lovely lighted ropes be cut almost exactly to length, they are easy to install.

Installation Accessories

While there is an assortment of optional installation accessories that can be purchased such as invisible splices, y-connectors, t-connectors among other types of hardware, there are only three (3) pieces of hardware that should be purchased. The only hardware absolutely required would be a power cord, a power connector and an end cap.

Dimmers for LED Christmas Rope Lights

One specific question that many consumers ask is whether or not these lights work with a dimmer. Actually, any standard 120V dimmer will work well. The only thing to be aware of is that the wattage must match the length of rope. If a rope is rated at 5.5 watts per foot, then a dimmer for 100 feet of rope would need a rating of a minimum of 550W.

Assorted Colors

There will never be any problem matching colors because LED Christmas rope lights come in any color lights imaginable from bright white lights to red, green, blue and anything in between. Also, rope lights come in both chasing and steady on styles. Literally any Christmas color scheme can be enhanced with these lovely rope lights.

Decorating for the holidays has never been easier, nor has it been as exciting. LED rope lights make it possible to get as creative as you’d like, and the only things that can limit you would be imagination or the confines of space. The best way to purchase Christmas rope would be to visit an online retailer. Not only are the prices great, but many have how-to sections to provide both installation instructions and design ideas.
