Can I string more than 1 cord of lights together? I want to use a 100 ft string & 50 ft string?

They do not connect together...you can get one of the connectors from home depot...

Yes, I actually used two 100 ft light strings. Just make sure that you have appropriate guide/support strings to accomodate the weight of the lights so they do not hang too low.

Not according to the tag on the cord (with the standard bulbs). The wire limit (amps and wattage) is nearly reached with 100 7-watt bulbs. If you're going with the LED bulbs, then yes.

I am sure that you can (unless your breaker won't take it). You could even cut the ends and wire them together if you want uniformity in spacing.

Unfortunately, no. You have to purchase a 12v supply. Radio Shack has them and of course Amazon has them. It doesn't take a big one for one string. If you want to put more than one string together, you need to purchase a bigger unit.

You can connect them end to end but each string has a separate box that needs to be programmed. I put three strands up in my TV room for a party and kept them up. I really like them. But to have to program each box (3 of them since I have 3 strands) every time I turn them on gets a big old. But for what I paid for them, no big deal.

Each string of hanging lights were twist-tied together. I just stretched out the main line that all were attached to then separated the bunches one at a time (10 bunches). To maintain you sanity make sure you have a lot of space when you're separating. I saved the twist ties for when I took it down. I made sure I plugged them in and tried them on each setting to ensure that all the lights and settings were working before untangling.

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.

They probably can but you why wouldn't you just order a 50' cord. You would also need to check if you need to increase the gauge of the wire with the longer length.

I misunderstood, I would use caution if you used two 50 ft. Cables. Heat could build up where they connect. I would use a 100 ft. Cable because it is safer. Using two 50 ft., I think it could handle light loads.

Yes, but it is not recommended by dealers to go beyond 222'. Or 167' if you want to add a controller (add twinkle flash running, etc to these 2 wire light strings) Just use the included plastic connector to put the strands together. People have done it. But I would stick with the dealer recommended lengths.

In order to properly answer your question, you must also take into consideration the size of cable you are using. Bigger is better when it comes to the cable leading from your power pack out to your lights. If you are using 1) 300 watt circuit of this power pack, along with 12 gauge or 14 gauge cable, then you should be able to accomplish your task, but not so much if you are using 16 gauge or 18 gauge cable. Of course this could change if you are using a different power pack than is shown here.

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.

Yes, you should be able to shorten the length of the light, we had a different problem, we had to makeit longer and we were able to do that without a problem..You would just cut the wiring to the size you want and remove that many links...

No clue man.... seems I recall reading somewhere that you could couple up to 16 strings... must equate to a pretty low amp draw... google it...!

Yes! We bought four sets - and attached two together creating 2 bigger strands. My boyfriend combined them with butt plugs (I know - sounds weird - but Radio Shack knew what he was talking about!!) So we now have two longer strings as we were not sure how the power would be if longer or more strings connected. He did have to strip the plastic off the end of the wires (1/2 inch) to connect them but was easy enough to do. You will end up with extra controllers and power pack - but that's ok. I see they now offer a splitter online - so it would be easier - but it was not available when we bought our sets. Hope this helps. Yes!

Unfortunately, the string is only made for 120V. You are able to purchase a 220V to 120V transformer to use with our lights. You can find these on Amazon too. Thanks.

These led's have a plug on both ends of the light so you just need to buy enough rolls to make 50 feet ... note not sure how may rolls of led's the signal box can support

Hi Freind Thanks for your inquiry about IP65 Waterproof 5M/16.4 Ft RGB SMD 3528 LED Color Changing 300 LED Flexible Strip Light .Of course ,you can connect more than 1 REEL together without any attachment .But there is one the most important case ,the Supply voltage must ensure that the full specified amount.Thanks

This is just a 4-strand, color coded wire bundle. You will need to install the correct connection fittings and if you are connecting more than two strings of LED's you will need to use a transformer. I don't have info on what one to use, but if read the product info they will tell you how may strings can be piggy-backed and the transformer needed for addition lines.
