Q: What’s the safest way to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>There are several ways to hang Christmas lights safely. Here are some key <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/christmas-lights-safety-tips.htm">Christmas light safety tips</a> to keep in mind:</p><ul><li><p>Always use Christmas lights and extension cords that are rated for outdoor use.</p></li><li><p>Don&rsquo;t overload outlets by plugging in too many lights.</p></li><li><p>Opt for LED lights for a safer display that saves on energy costs.</p></li><li><p>Do not use old or broken Christmas lights.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What do you need to do for a Christmas light show?

• <div><p>To synchronize your Christmas show to music, you&rsquo;ll need the standard holiday lights, decorations, lawn ornaments, tools, and outdoor-rated extension cords. You&rsquo;ll also need a digital controller, computer, and software that allows you to create your musical show. </p></div>

Q: Can I use both LED and incandescent Christmas lights together?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not a good idea to mix LED and incandescent Christmas lights if you can avoid it. LEDs and incandescents can have significantly different electrical current needs. This difference can lead to a higher risk of problems and failure for both light strands. When possible, switch all your lights over to one kind or the other for the best results. Do not connect the different types of light strings to each other, and avoid linking them to the same circuit. </p></div>

Q: Can I use duct tape to hang Christmas lights?

• <div><p>Technically, you can use duct tape to hang Christmas lights, but it&rsquo;s not the best bet. Duct tape or other types of tape retain moisture, which isn&rsquo;t ideal when near an electrical wire. Plus, it can peel off due to the elements. Duct tape is also a very unattractive option, visually speaking. Instead, opt for roof clips for Christmas lights, which are affordable and easy to use.</p></div>

Q: Are LED Christmas lights safe to leave up all year?

• <div><p>No, you should not leave LED Christmas lights up all year. While the LED lights themselves are very durable, their wiring and casings can be as vulnerable as any Christmas lights. They&rsquo;re subject to drying out, experiencing cold or sun damage that causes them to crack, and even damage caused by gnawing pests. (The same is true of incandescents.) If you want your lights to last the years that they&rsquo;re rated for, bring them inside after Christmas is over. </p></div>

We had a short circuit in the outdoor wiring. Our neighbor recommended Autuori, and they came out the next day. Anthony and his son John figured it out and got us back in business just before the Thanksgiving holiday, which was great.
