How do I chain more than one 16' strip to another to extend it?

Look at the end of the strip. You will see two copper colored pads side by side. Also note that about every three lights there are 4 such pads. The area between the two pairs of pads is a cut point when strips can be made shorter if desired. Those are soldering pads when you can solder two short wires onto the pads at either end of a strip to make a longer light strip. Another option is to purchase a roll of lights instead of short sections such as you have.

The answer is yes. You need to purchase a connector to continue the chain or another type to "V" off the strip. Each company sells accessories to do these additions.

Unfortunately, the swing manufacturer did not sell chain if you needed additional length. So I went to Lowe's and bought a similar size chain, cut to the proper length x2, with connectors/links. Then I sprayed it with a matching Rustoleum paint.

Hi Brian, you can use two extenders in one network, but you won't be able to "chain" two of them together to further extend the signal. If you're having trouble getting signal downstairs even with an extender, you might want to look into a Powerline setup!

My experience is you can string 5 16' sets together without repeating. Afterwards you would need to repeater for another 5 sets.

You will need an amplifier connected between each 16' strip after the first. This will provide new full power to the next strip and repeat the identical signal (color) as the strip before it.

If I understand your question correctly, you want to cut the lights, separate them and then join them back with wire, making the total length longer. If this is what you want to do then the answer is yes. Make sure you cut where the white line is on the led strips and then strip plastic to expose the wire and solder your additional wire to the led wire. The lights will need a 12 volt power supply and I also added a dimmer to control how much light. They are very bright.

Each strip is ~12" long. The power connections add an inch (at each end if you daisy chian...)

It depends the distanced you want to split them to. The actual cable is long where you can separate the lights far from each other. Maybe if you buy an additional cable you can move to an entire separate location. Hope this helps.

You cans use two but there is an extension peice you can but any add about two more feet to the middle

I connected 2 strips, about 20' on one. You can hook as many strips together as the transformer will allow which is around 3 15' strips for the transformer I have.

Fasten one end and stretch it out while holding the other end with a pair of pliers after rolling out the length you need.

I went to Home Depot and purchased a shag lamp kit (I just used the chain since the wire pigtail included with the chandelier was more than 9 feet long) that worked just fine and was probably less expensive than buying an short piece for an extension.

You can use as much or a little chain as you want, including not using any at all (although that might look a little odd). To shorten the chain, you just need to bend one of the links and remove the rest. The wire can be easily cut to what ever length you wish and stripped for wiring to a switch/plug/box.

It can extend beyond this if you buy two kits and use the extensions included in the second set

not long enough for 14 feet. maybe you can get an electrician to add length to the hard wire and then you can add length to the chain by buying a few more feet of it at home depot or something.

First, you will need to look at the wattage of each of the strips (the 24 inch are 8 watts). That's a fairly long distance and you will want a power supply at least 1 1/2 times the total wattage you'll need. I have 6 24-in strips in a row and find the ones on the end are not as bright as the ones closest to the power supply. You may want to consider putting the power supply in the middle of the string if possible and use a "Y" connector to split the power both directions to shorten the total distance.
