Does anyone know how i can go about using a portable solar panel that s also battery operated to connect to my tree.
Put up christmas lights outside without outlet.
There are two ways to power outdoor christmas lights that illuminate the exterior of your house.
I have a small christmas tree that comes with pre lit lights that i want to put out this christmas on a plot at the cemetery.
Use a reliable sturdy ladder and get a helper if you can.
Fi and i are living in the top half of a duplex with a great upper porch and i d really love to hang christmas lights around the railing but i just went outside to check and there s no way for me to get power out there to light them no porch light no outlet nothing.
Using an outdoor light socket or power from a basement.
Since a lot of you seem to be all excited about decorating for christmas i pose a problem.
If you work alone use a basket or bucket with a handle to haul your materials up and down.
Outdoor lighting requires a lot of lifting careful placement and aligning which is much easier to do with a helper or two.
The tree comes with a plug but i don t have a clue how to go about it.
Put a nail or an s hook on the ladder so you can hang your tote bucket.
You can either run a power strip off the porch light outlet adapter or you can run the cord out of the window by using some insulation weather stripping which u can buy at home depot or something.
Some of our neighbors screw a socket with outlet into their porch lights but ours is enclosed and there is no room.
Also where i can purchase it.
You can also augment these power supplying methods by using lights that do not run on electric power.
