I am trying to make permannt christmas light frames for my windows that are prestrung with christmas lights. I would like to shorten the strings to custom fit the windows, but so farhave only shorted out the circuits and ruined several experimental efforts. Do you have a simple diagram that shows how these strings work and how I canshorten them safely? Any other suggestions?

Most CHRISTMAS LIGHT STRINGS are wired in series and cannot be cut without ruining the lights.  If you are using MINI LIGHTS,  NET LIGHTS or TWINKLE LIGHTS this is the case. 

If you would like to use GLOBE LIGHTS, C7 or C9 LIGHTS, they can be custom cut because the operate at 120 volts and are not wired in series.  We have new LED C7 LIGHTS that are very long lasting and use very little electricity.

Of course, you can always use 120 VOLT ROPE LIGHTS for your window displays.  It can be cut every 18" or closer depending on the type and voltage you buy.
