Is there a power point (wall socket) within 5m of where the lights start?

3Black or white cable?

At night the eye goes to the lights. In daylight you see the cable, so match it to what it sits on. Same price either way.

4Which light colour?

Same price in every colour. The mood changes.

Putting them up

How to wrap a tree properly

The method we give every customer.

  1. Test every string on the ground

    Plug each piece in before it goes up. A dead string is easy to swap at ground level.

  2. Keep it loose

    You should be able to slide two fingers under the cable anywhere. The tree keeps growing.

  3. Soft ties only

    Garden velcro, soft rubber tree ties or twine. Never zip ties or wire on a living branch.

  4. Split at the first fork

    Fit the splitter where the trunk becomes limbs, instead of winding one string back and forth.

Questions

Before you buy.

How far from the power point can the lights start?

Every kit reaches 5m from the power point (wall socket): 2m on the power supply lead plus the 3m extension lead in the box. Further than that takes extra extension lead as a custom build, so tell us the distance before you order: email support@festoonhouse.com.au or call 1300 246 282.

Can I join lengths, or branch them?

Yes. Every string has quick-connect ends, so runs join end to end, and a splitter sends one run off in up to five directions. That is how one power point covers a whole tree.

Can I leave them up all year?

Yes. They are built for permanent outdoor installation. On a tree, check the ties and the slack once a year, ideally in spring, because that is when a tie goes from comfortable to tight.

Will fairy lights damage my tree?

Not if they are wrapped loose and tied with something soft. Damage comes from tight wraps and hard ties, particularly zip ties and wire, which cut into the bark as the tree grows.

Do I need an electrician?

Not to plug a kit into an existing outdoor power point: the power supply plugs in and runs the lights at 24V. A new outdoor power point, or any fixed wiring, is a job for a licensed electrician.
