You can extend summer nights well into the night with outdoor string lights and quickly add ambience to any porch, deck, or yard. It can be difficult to find the most convenient, safest, long-lasting, and visually appealing way to hang them. I talked to several of our Wire cutting professionals about the best ways to install outdoor string lights, typical hanging mistakes to avoid, and how to make them look their best. This will assist you in deciding on the best arrangement.
String light placement outside
In a small space, you may not have many alternatives for where to place your lights. However, if you have sufficient leeway, different placements work best for certain functions, such as improving aesthetics, defining a space, or adding beneficial lighting. Hanging lights beneath Rachel's terrace created a nice ambience in an otherwise uninviting environment. Doug, ever the handyman, gathered some 10-foot branches, buried them in the ground, and used them as lamp posts to create a wonderful, rustic appearance encircling his patio.
Even if you aren't burying your own branches, running lights between two poles or trees is popular and appealing. If you do this, consider using a string-light hanging kit, which Doug describes as a "wonderful, all-in-one" option, to help with the task. He claims that the kits consist of just stringing a tight wire between two posts and hanging the lights from the wire. It effectively maintains the correct slope without putting strain on the wires, but it also reduces pressure on the light wire. (In terms of not overloading the cords, the creators of our top pick for outdoor string lights recommend using electrical tape to secure multiple strands across long distances.
How to Arrange String Lights Equally
One of the most annoying things about stringing lights is discovering that you don't have enough lights for the project halfway through. Sarah recommends "drawing out the area where you'd like to hang your lights using a length of fishing line or string, including any stylistic dips you want to make and enough cord to reach the outlet, and then measuring that string with a ruler or tape measure" to avoid this.
Then, with your lights ready, Doug recommends "spreading the lights out underneath where you're going to hang them," which will save you time and effort in the long run.
How to Attach Outdoor String Lights Securely
Although most modern outdoor string lights do not generate enough heat to start a fire, Sarah cautions against wrapping the wires in anything or suspending anything from them that could cause the line to become weak over time. (All of the string lights we recommend include hanging hooks or holes, so you don't have to rely on the wire to hang them.)

This allows the battery to be used in the field for many years without needing to be replaced once a year like the old technology.
As long as the size of the system is designed to have approximately more than 2500 cycles or a maximum depth of discharge of 20%, the system can now be used in the field for more than 5 years.
All these factors combine to result in much less maintenance than traditional power and lighting systems, thereby reducing costs for you.SecurityThe biggest factor is safety and security.
