Connectable Lights

FAQs

• Are connectable lights expensive to run?

  Our connectable lights use LED technology, which is very efficient. Decorative lighting is generally not as bright as more functional lighting, which also reduces the amount of electricity it uses. Feel free to useour handy tool to work out exactly how much electricity a set of lights uses.

  To give you an idea, a single set of lights will be pennies per month rather than pounds. Even large displays (such as connectable Christmas lights used on an average of 6 hours per day) would only be a few pounds a month.

• Do connectable lights include the connectors?

  Yes, a male and female connection is built into the lights. At one end, the lights will connect to the power supply, which then plugs into the wall, battery box or solar panel. The other end can plug into another set of lights like a daisy chain. For the last set of lights in the chain (or if you are using a set of our festive connectable lights on their own), you can secure the end with the attached rubber seal to the intended wall/structure.

• Why is the power plug separate?

  If you are looking to combine multiple sets of connectable Christmas lights or garden lights, having a separate power plug allows you to create any configuration of lights, with any number of sets. You can add more lights over time and create entirely flexible lighting designs, without needing additional plugs and power sources.

  For this reason, the plug is not included with the purchase of lights, as not every customer needs one. If you're adding to your collection of connectable lights, you'll avoid paying for a plug you don't need.
