Installation & Care Guide

Your new lighting system uses extremely fine copper wiring to transport low-voltage electricity efficiently. While this technology enables beautiful, eco-friendly illumination, it requires careful handling and specific installation methods to ensure longevity. Understanding these requirements will help you enjoy your lights for many years to come.

1. Panel Mounting Options

  • Ground spike for soft surfaces
  • Wall bracket for fences/walls
  • Shelf stand for windowsills

2. Optimal Positioning

  • Choose south-facing location
  • Avoid shaded areas
  • Ensure direct sunlight access

3. Light String Support

  • Support every 2-3 LEDs
  • Avoid spans over 4-5 LEDs
  • Use cable ties for security

4. Power Settings

  • Switch on for initial setup
  • Charges in both ON/OFF positions
  • Auto-activation at dusk

Installation Methods

Choose the best mounting option for your location. Proper installation is crucial for the longevity of your lighting system.

Ground Installation

  • Soften hard ground with water
  • Insert spike securely
  • Attach power unit

Wall Mounting

  • Use screws and wall plugs
  • Secure bracket firmly
  • Click panel into place

Windowsill Setup

  • Use provided stand
  • Ensure stable surface
  • Maximum sun exposure

Safety Checks

  • Secure all connections
  • Test stability
  • Check wire tension

Moving & Relocating

The delicate nature of the copper wiring means special care is needed when moving or storing your lights. The thin wires that make these lights energy-efficient are also what make them vulnerable to damage if handled roughly. Even small kinks or breaks in the wire can affect entire sections of your display.

Safe Storage Method

  • Create cardboard tube for winding
  • Roll carefully, never bunch
  • Store in dry, safe location

Pruning Precautions

  • Remove before pruning
  • Extra care with conifer trees
  • Annual maintenance planning

Handling Tips

  • Never pull or yank strings
  • Handle wiring gently
  • Avoid sharp bends or kinks

Reinstallation

  • Check wiring before reuse
  • Reapply proper supports
  • Test before final setup

Why Support Is Crucial

Supporting your lights every 3-4 LEDs isn't just a suggestion - it's essential for preservation. When left unsupported, the weight of the wire creates tension points that can break the delicate internal connections. Think of it like a delicate necklace - if left hanging, it will eventually break at its weakest point.

The Conifer Challenge

Conifer trees present a unique challenge for outdoor lighting. These trees require annual pruning and tend to move significantly in the wind. Their branches can whip around vigorously during storms, which is why extra support and careful installation are necessary. When installing on conifers, think of it as creating a secure pathway rather than just draping.

Water and Weather Protection

While designed for outdoor use, concentrated water flow can damage your lighting over time. Roofs and structures without gutters create waterfalls that can wear away at the protective coating and eventually cause failure. Always consider water paths when planning your installation.

Wildlife Interactions

Birds are naturally attracted to bright, small objects that resemble berries. This is particularly problematic near bird feeders where birds are already actively foraging. The LED bulbs can be damaged by curious beaks, so strategic placement away from bird-heavy areas is important for preservation.

Long-Term Care Commitment

Your lighting system is an investment in your outdoor space. While the initial installation may take more time to do properly, this effort pays off many times over in longevity. Many of our customers report their properly installed lights lasting for years, while those who skip proper support often experience issues within months.

Remember: The few extra minutes spent on proper support and careful installation will save hours of troubleshooting and replacement later.

Final Note: When properly installed and cared for, your lights can provide years of beautiful, sustainable illumination. The key is understanding that their delicate nature requires thoughtful installation and handling. Take your time with the initial setup, follow these guidelines carefully, and you'll be rewarded with a lasting, magical display.
