how long of a cable will do the 22 foot gutter and roof edge I have do I need 100 feet

There are several web sites - and the manufacturers - that tell how to measure. In my case I have mine double strung IN the gutter as that was my issue - the ice sitting there which would then back up onto the roof.

I think they do make these in shorter sizes, but remember to run the cable down your gutter part way to allow the melt water to run down. I do think a heavy duty timer is a good idea too. I run my cables from 11am - 3pm this has the sun doing some of the work for free. Good luck with your job and they last about 10 years average.

That would be nice. But, no. You will need a good quality outdoor extension chord. I would suggest 100 ft.

Yes, the way the cable and clamps are designed, you can make it any length you want up to 100 ft. Very easy, you will see when it arrives. One end is a fixed loop, but the other end, you make a loop at the length you want and tighten down two clamps with a wrench or a socket. I found the best way to do it is to make it just a bit shorter than it looks like I will need, then use a big screwdriver to pry the second loop onto the hook, that way the cable is nice and tight.

I have one of the older ones with 100+ft cable. After 50 feet or so, you lose the tension required to keep pushing. I've never used all of the cable because i can't. I'm actually going to get shorter cable.

I went out and measured my Durango. The coax has to be at least 14 feet to go from the back left corner of the roof to the front dash area.

The cable is 100' long. You can also connect 3-4, or our 100' extension cords, for extended range.

25 Feet. It is not quite enough to wrap 2 full length motorcycle exhaust pipes. It is a good product though.DO NOT use the metal tie staps that are suggested. They do not sinch tightly.

Mine works on my roof to 3 houses down and across the street to another house I own. Approx. 600ft with no issues.

It's been awhile since I installed our Wilson antenna, but I do know the cable is about twenty feet long.Hope this helps.

You should be able to extend to 50 feet, the only thing is go with a 18 or 22 gage wire not 20 gage.

Everything you measure multiply that by 2, because the whole thing gets ran as a loop. With the exception of the gutter that will get you pretty close. Also don't forget to allow for distance from edge of roof to receptacle. I ran loops approximately 15' up 1.5' wide and 15' back down (hence the loop) a few times. Then apprx. 1' down into my downspout thru my gutter and into my second spout, looped back out, over the gutter down to recep. Hope that helps.

I have a 16ft awning and its about perfect for that distance. I think it would work for 20ft , it has the stretch cord so i would try it. They are nice lights.

I would say yes.. For my 22 ft the 2 ends fall short. So the extra 5 feet will be just right. This is just the best thing ever. I wish I would've bought it sooner

That is true. A 50 ft cord needs to be 16/3. I got a 100-foot cord, which needs to be 14/3. The longer the cord, the thicker the wire needs to be. There is a helpful article in Wikipedia under "extension cord."

That really depends on how thick you do it. For sky lights and AC joints in the body of the roof where seals are 2-4" wide you'll get maybe 10-12 feet. For roof edge seems you could get 40-50 feet.

If you have a 90' straight distance, then I would suggest getting a 150' cable as you may need the additional cable footage to snake up and down walls since a straigt distance measurement may not always reflect the reality of where the cable will need to go.

Hi, not sure what you mean. I use an outside electrical extension cord. I got 100 foot, which is good for taking around property without having to switch top alternate outdoor outlet.
