Q: What are the cons of motion sensor lights?

• <div><p>Before investing in motion sensor lights, there are a couple of disadvantages worth noting. For starters, they&rsquo;re not as reliable as other forms of lighting. Motion sensor lights can be accidentally triggered by pets or wind, which can become a nuisance after a while. The opposite situation can occur, too, where they don&rsquo;t turn on when you need them to. </p></div>

Q: How do you make a prelit Christmas tree light blink?

• <div><p>If you take home a pre-lit Christmas tree but want to spruce it up with blinking lights, don&rsquo;t worry, there&rsquo;s a simple solution. You can easily replace the light bulbs on the pre-lit tree with flashing bulbs. For a more subtle look, only replace some of the bulbs with flashing bulbs.</p></div>

Q: How do I stop my outdoor Christmas lights from shorting out?

• <div><p>If your lights are shorting out during rain storms or other winter events, you should probably replace them. These shorts indicate electrical issues that could cause serious hazards. Look for outdoor-rated lights with connectors made for rainy conditions to replace them. But if your Christmas lights are new and you want further protection, you can find weatherproof covers to add to the male-end connectors of your Christmas light strings. These can minimize the risk of shorts.</p></div>

Q: How much does landscape lighting cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/landscape-lighting-costs.htm">Landscape lighting costs</a> about <b>$4,000</b> on average, ranging from <b>$2,000 to $6,000</b>, depending on the amount of lighting, type of lights, and your location.
