Definitely use all of it, it may seem like a lot but to me it isn't too bright overall so more light the better

No, I believe the end will be too big, unless you are using something less than Schedule 40.

You could do that with no problems. You would probably want to burn/melt the end you cut to keep it from fraying which isn't a big deal.

I laid mine on a piece of cardboard then used a utility knife and a straight edge to score both sides. After scoring both sides thoroughly I was able to snap off the extra. However if you are only trimming a small amount I would just alternate from one side to the other unit you are all the way through.

Yes this item has a tapered end that I found helpful doing detail work. Hope that helps.

No - I bought the 72" version and I don't see how you would be able to shorten it. Each end has some hardware in it and it would be very difficult / impossible to cleanly remove it then cut the whole thing to be 66".

I agree with John's answer, you can cut with out any spacers (just be careful) and this will give you a close cut.

ok sorry for taying so long to give you an answer,ok yes you can cut it to the lenght i always do

Yes. The smaller fitting twists off. So it can be shortened, but you have to do it from the the smaller fitting.

As long as (and this might sound obvious to some, but I never assume) you cut off the end opposite the power cord. Its not like Christmas lights where if one goes they all go. Make it as long or short as you need.

Yes, there is a split that runs from the outer edge to the inner opening. You shouldn't need to cut anything.

You wouldn't want to cut it at all if you need short leave the extra tied up, it's just one cable length no shorter one it is what it is,and place out of sun and away from any source of heat that would make it read falsely

No, you cannot cut the line. If you cut it it will no longer wor. You need to measure and get close to the length you need. Extra lengths can be tucked into the gutter or downspouts.

You just snap off the extra part right where it is indented for that purpose.

I did not have any problem removing the ends...your's may just be very tight.I assume that you tried to remove both sides?

I don't think you will be able to shorten this. It was longer than I wanted also, so I just doubled back. I think they do make these in different lengths though.

I would suggest cutting from the extra end, since your other option is to get a wider cover which is more costly.
