There are some houses near me that have their lights up...and on...already. I have a portion of my lights up (behind on getting it done). But they're not on yet, even if I was done putting up (and had all the programming done), its still too early to turn on.

Are there any parallel christmas light sets in 240v countries like the UK or Australia?

Quote from: Binarix128 on December 06, 2020, 03:06:32 PM Probably not, because with 220V you can make a nearly twice longer set with the same standard bulbs, which are cheaper to make. At least here I haven't seen parallel sets or 220V xmas light bulbs. As far as I can imagine, you could probably connect 2 US C7/C9 strings in series in 240v countries if you want that classic American look for your Christmas lights.
