I am in the process of doing that, but I needed to find smaller, flat topped lights to fit in my pint jars. Just found them. Check out gardentherapy.ca. They have an article on doing this.

I didn't, my husband melted the ends with a hot knife and stuck them together. Been using them for years with no problems.

No, they're two different style light strips.the only way would be to cut the ends and soldier the together..that's what I did.

I would make my own out of milk bottle plastic or cut your own Rosco color correction gels. Velum is another great option and it's inexpensive, so you can make a bunch of them. The clear/white panel that is included does nothing to diffuse the light. It just protects the LED bulbs.

Hey I bought these lights for the fire dept. depending on your state laws and regulations you can either put them in the front of your dash and either tape them in or glue them I'd recommend tape because the sun will eventually decompose the adhesive structure I actually did that but I bent it into the top part of the windshield frame and two in the back window of my pickup. If you have any questions you can email me I set them up multiple ways ZackZdfowler12@yahoo.com

The are transparent, hard plastic liners. I suppose you could line the shelves and then cover them with plastic to create a makeshift greenhouse the size and shape of the shelves.

We had it done at a professional lighting store. It was done originally by someone that didn't know how to handle things and they hooked them to the exhaust pipes with xip ties. Needless to say they melted off. We have since changed to XK glow lights and they were done by someone that knew what they were doing so we are real happy with them. The original lights were ok. Just not mounted right. The lighting shop made them good as their man is the one that messed them up. They were replaced with the brand that they sold.

I used candelabera lights. I already had them but you could find them anywhere including Lowes and Home Depot or even Walmart.

I did not get to use mine in the pot-lights I wanted to used it in, because they were too wide for the fixture, so I did not experience this. I would keep a close eye on this problem and not use them for extended times.

The solar lights on this product stink. Same thing happened to mine..died in a few months. One creative solution we did to try and salvage our money was to go get the cheap walmart solar lights that stick in the ground. We then zip tiend them around the candle part and now we have solar lights in the pretty glass encasement.

I removed the plastic wrap and they worked for me! I just had to scratch off some of the coating to make it light! The corner is the easiest place to light from if you break a little bit off.

The lights can be shortened. I was able to do it. You'll need to cut to fit, reattach (or terminate) the wires with electrical connectors, and use tape to seal from the elements.

Supposedly. They're designed to be cut to length. But if it's for outdoor use, they don't hold up well so make sure its not a big project to put them up. There should be instructions included that describe where to cut the lights so that they'll still work.

yes that is what I did, I get a better deal in Ebay on led's. I have the dimmable ones.

In my case I installed round eye screws in the top of my corner posts on my deck. Then I used some cheap carabiniers to make the connection between the sewed in d-rings and the eye screws.
