How To Fix Broken Incandescent Christmas Lights | The Light Keeper Pro

[@josephsnyder6787]

Have owned the Light Keeper Pro for many years. It has saved my frustration many, many times! Highly recommend it. 😀

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Well said, Joseph. It's a dang handy tool indeed.

[@RegisScanlon]

Just bought the Light Keeper Pro. Worked great on the generic strands outside. Guess I was a fool to buy a Balsam Hill tree several years ago. They must have some kind of proprietary lights because the socket sizes don't seem to fit properly in the shunt fixer and the bulbs don't fit in the bulb tester. They are incandescent. Tried the alternative method, per the instructions, with the plug end but it didn't work either. Couple partial strands out, some show power to the sockets and some don't. Master bulbs are all fine (but don't light), fuses fine. Tree is fully decorated so I guess I will have to fiddle with it after Christmas, trash it, or re-wrap it with generic light strands. Next tree I buy will have basic light strands. Live and learn.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

I feel your frustration! Yes, pre-lit trees are not designed to be fixable. I just did an interview with John DeCosmo. John was a pioneer in pre-lit trees. He had an interesting and very blunt take on the pre-lit industry:kzbin.info_O-9UtqxqzM?si=0PsxNBAdsAPyrnxd

5 you say? Very nice, LBC. There's a new(ish) tool that I'll be testing that is similar to the Keeper series. It's designed to do both LED and incandescent bulbs. I'm curious about how effective it'll be.

I had to laugh when you said how many blown fuses you have dealt with. Before I was out of 5th grade I probably had a record of blowing fuses until my Dad stepped in and educated me 😂. After that I still have blown a few trying to press my luck on connecting strings, Christmas lights have definitely improved through the years (well, some have) Now my challenges are working with a house that is over 100 yrs old with some electricity to match, 2 fuse boxes and 2 breaker boxes 😬. Last year I wiped out a full Halloween display while plugging in the last set, meaning fuses, blacken bulbs and all, when I over do it, I do it well. 😂 I could feel my Dad shaking his head in Heaven 😅 if he only would have tripped me before I plugged them in.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Haha, I love this story-sounds like your Dad passed on some great lessons (even if they came with a bit of trial and error)! 😂 You’ve definitely got some classic Christmas (and Halloween) decorator stories under your belt. I feel your pain with the older electrical setups-working with 100+ year-old wiring is a whole other level of challenge! Your Halloween wipeout sounds like a legendary moment-I can just picture the lights going dark, your Dad facepalming in Heaven, and you thinking, “Well, that escalated quickly.” 😅 If you have a video of your display, I’d love for you to send it to [e-mail]! I’m putting together our annual collage of decorated homes, and you never know who you’ll inspire by showing others all your hard work. Wishing you smooth decorating (and fewer blown fuses) this year! 🎄✨

[@129stacey]

@ when I was a grade school kid at home, I found a short set of Xmas lights & the bulbs where the prettiest color, almost a pearlish tone of mauves, greens etc. plugged them in and they worked! Yay! Put them on the front railing and plugged them in. Simultaneously, not only did the whole house lights dim, smoke came out of the sockets and my Dad yelled, “HEY!” From inside the house, I’m surprised I wasn’t traumatized for life from that moment 😂😂😂

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

[@1ChevyGuy375]

I have a multi function vintage Christmas sign and I need to replace bulbs in it. I'm not sure if I need 2.5 or 3.5 volt replacement bulbs. The sign has 144 lights and a box for the multifunction patterns but they are not strung up like a regular strand. The box has 5 wires coming out and each color light bulb gets one wire to start the circuit and the fifth wire Is connected at the end to all the neutrals I believe. Anyways a few of the lights are dim and I'm trying to figure out what the problem is by starting with light bulb replacement so I need to know if I need 2.5 or 3.5 volt bulbs. Thanks

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Hey there, Chevy! I completely get how frustrating that can be. I would suggest using a multimeter to find the voltage of your bulbs. Fixing lights that are attached to control boxes is very difficult. Sometimes, the easiest way is to purchase a second set of identical lights and utilize those as replacement bulbs. But the multimeter will measure volts and can help answer your question!

[@MIW_Renegade]

To be safe. Get both 3.5 and 2.5v bulbs, Try some 3.5v bulbs, the worst that can happen is the bulb glows dim, which would mean you need 2.5v ones, otherwise save your 2.5v bulbs for another set. I have a very similar set of lights to what you described, and my set uses 2.5v bulbs

[@1ChevyGuy375]

Thanks for the info but I found out this set uses 7volt bulbs that are not manufactured anymore since this if from the early 90's. My only option that I know of is to use 6volt bulbs that are readily available but that will add 1 volt to each bulb. So the lights will burn out faster as each bulb will take a higher load.

[@MIW_Renegade]

@@1ChevyGuy375 I’d look around on the internet, you can still find people selling NOS 7v bulbs (I just checked before I commented) so hopefully this helps

[@1ChevyGuy375]

Ok thanks, I'll look around.

[@ranrui4047]

In my case half of it is burn lights, what should I do?

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

For incandescents, they will turn black on the tip if they are bad. If they are not lighting up AND they are not black, their shunts are broken and they need to be fixed. This tool is designed to fix just that problem. I just interviewed the inventor of this tool: kzbin.info_O-9UtqxqzM?si=PJYPIYZJ01xOZZNG In the interview, he discusses the different parts of the incandescent bulb and how to fix them by using the tool.

[@billvarian5435]

Great tool! I've one for a few years, helped me more than a few times. Lost the instructions. What does the plug on the gun do?

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Hello, Bill. The Pro doesn't have a plug. The LED Keeper does. If you are talking about how to attach an incandescent string to the Pro, there is a circular female end just in front of the trigger called the Lights Set Socket Connector. You detach the bad bulb's socket directly into this area. Then, with the lights plugged in, pull the trigger, up to 30 times, until the lights are functional.

[@Scott-xh7wd]

Light keeper is a great tool! I forgot to send you our easter lights.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Ah, no worries. Memorial Day is just around the corner. I took your advice and put out my Novostellas. I completely forgot I had four of them. I only used two in the Christmas show. For Easter, I used their "Gorgeous" setting. It allowed for constantly changing pastel colors all over the front yard.

[@giyer2002]

Nice clear video. However I was not able to fix my issue and it is driving me nuts. I have half my string working well and the other half (closer to the outlet) not working well. Checked the fuses - both are fine. Tested all the bulbs and verified they were all working. Tried shunting but no luck. Used the LightKeeper to test current and it seems to be flowing all across (no breaks). Not sure what is going on..

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Hey there, Giyer. I suspect you have one of two possible problems. One, you have a short in the line somewhere. Have you tried plugging them in, and the manipulating the string to see if the rest turn on with the string torqued at different angles? Secondly, you may simply have a corroded socket. Try using a flashlight and look into each socket for corrosion. These are my two most common issues with I can't diagnose what is wrong. Let me know!

[@MIW_Renegade]

I also experienced where the light keeper fixes the wrong section of lights from where I’m working, helpful but also annoying when I wanna fix the section I’m working on lol

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

It'll fix the broken shunts throughout the string. Every once in awhile it'll do that. It does fix the broken shunts throughout the string. Sometimes the lights we hope get fixed by that option requires a bit more investigating. Keep the faith though!

[@MIW_Renegade]

@@ChristmasOnCrestline so far I’ve only had one set that the unit couldn’t fix, but I’m pretty sure that set has a bunch of broken wires. But hey, if the bulbs work, I don’t have to buy new bulbs just yet! Lol

[@LifeInMontana]

Thanks. You gave me hope! Dang lights!

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Hey there, Ron. Here's hoping you quickly find the culprit.

[@tulebox]

What does it mean when the bulb lights up in the tester, but doesn't light up when placed back in the string? And the entire string is lit, except for a few strays. Electricity is flowing through the non-lit bulb (the copper filament turns slightly red, but emits no light), so I don't understand why it's not lighting up, because it does in the tester. Socket looks ok. Nothing looks bent inside.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

It sounds very much like the shunts are broken in the string. Have you tried to use the Light Keeper Pro to fix the string via the trigger? The thing to remember with the trigger is that it can take up to 30 trigger pulls to fix all the shunts. After that, you should be good to go.

[@nrey4255]

So what do you do after you did all these method...tree was lite for 2 whole day and then a whole section went out and all the bulbs are black? Does that mean that my tree lights are completely done and a fire hazard at this point? It smell like smoke after that happened 😒

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Hello, N. If your incandescents are black and you smelled smoke, yes, they are toast I'm afraid. These likely had a power surge or and exposed wire that sent a surge throughout the string and heated the line to beyond repair, in my opinion. With that said, let's get you over to the folks that know best. Call 888-858-2548 and see if they might know a secret tip or trick to bringing you lights back to life.

[@stevenhoelderich9490]

Hi Charlie, I have The, Light Keeper Pro And, I took it, to work one day. My Staff Said what is that? I said it's The Light Keeper Pro, you connect the socket into it and go Click, click, click, and the lights, come back on. They where impressed now I'm there Christmas light repair Man.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Boom! It's like having a magic Christmas light wand. I used my LED Keeper in a new way to fix lights yesterday. I'll be filming an episode on it tomorrow for a new video. I wasn't sure if it work in the way I was using it...man, these Keepers are amazing!

[@kyleford5250]

I have multiple single , random strings and no “spare bulbs”! 😢. It seems every company every year changes their socket shape/size. How can I get spares?????

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Hey there, Kyle. Unfortunately, in this exact case, the only way to obtain spares is to rethink your design and to remove on string of lights from a prop. As an example, just last night, I needed green LED spares. So, I removed a 100 ct strand from a prop, and voila....I had 100 spare lights. It's unfortunate but sometimes the only way to get spares is to borrow them from another string.

[@connieeason6867]

I have a partial strand of lights on my Christmas tree that won’t work. I fixed the others with the light keeper pro. The part that i can’t fix has a different kind of socket that won’t fit in the tool. It has an additional plastic piece added to the socket. It is the first light socket closest to the plug. Any ideas?

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

I've had this happen before, Connie. It's actually an easy fix. All you need to do is to use an extension cord and use plug that into the Pro. I use old light strings that I've removed the bulbs off of but an average extension cord should provide you with the same ability!

[@percyprimrose9956]

I bought two light keepers this year never worked,change batteries still don’t work what next

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Well, that sucks, Percy. I've only heard of that twice before. One fella was using this on LED lights and didn't realize it was only for incandescent lights. The other time, it was a battery issue and changing the battery was the solution. Call John at 888-858-2548 and he'll have the answer for you.

I have a pre -lit Christmas tree and my wife threw something at me and luckily missed me but he the tree and now the middle section of lights don't work. I pretty much checked all the bulbs by hand and didn't find anything wrong. Do you think this product will fix my tree ?

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Oh man, Russel. Nice Matrix moves! I always recommend trying it as pre-lits are not all made the same. The problem is pre-lit trees are not designed to be fixed, unfortunately. I know a few brands like Twinkly that are working on fixing that issue but your big box store brand pre-lits are not repairable. With that said, the issue you likely have is either a bulb or two that is no longer seated properly OR you have a bulb that has broken off one of it's copper prongs.

I’ve used this tool for years and it’s worked really well but recently I get a problem I can’t fix. New strands not chained are blowing brand new in two weeks and every bulb goes black. I’ve tested my strands and light passes through them to a chained strand but even when I replace everything they flicker and go out. I’ve tested my wall socket and the oscilloscope does not identify anything weird

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

It sounds like the copper has been hit with a surge and burnt out the line. Have you opened up the string to see if it is still shiny copper or burnt black? However, you say these are new, not set up in a daisy-chain, and you have more than one string that has failed. That would lead me to believe you have a bad batch of lights from the manufacture. Have you reached out to the retailer you purchased them from? Lastly, I'd suggest you call John at Ulta-Lit at 888-858-2548 and see if he has any quick fixes for you!

What’s the deal with incandescent bulb strands? Every year I end up replacing entire strands of lights because half the line doesn’t work. I’ve tried replacing bulbs, fuses, nothing ever works. Is there a solution to half strand issue?

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

I just had the inventor of the Keeper on a live stream last week: kzbin.info_O-9UtqxqzM?si=bf-D_0UB9JB3J1C_ He spoke about how the lights are designed to fail and it's not getting better. The shut trigger in the Kepper Pro can fix that issue for you. For me, that is normally a complete fix in about 40% of the incandescent strings.

[@MyPilot69]

Need help on my Christmas lights! I have a string of about 50 incandescent lights. I purchased a contactless voltage tester and found that the very last bulb is not getting voltage. And when I flip the AC plug around in the socket, to flip the neutral and hot lines, the very last bulb now does not get voltage. And if I plug a second set of lights on to the end of the bad set, the other lights work so the voltage is carrying all the way through! Any ideas?

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

You likely have a bad shunt in the line of lights. Have you used the Lights Keeper Pro on it yet? That should have fixed the shunt. Another frequent issue is bad corrosion. Sometimes a light socket will be corroded to the point the juice isn't detectable and it needs to be cut off and bypassed to have the lights function. Let me know.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Hello ZM. The clicking is meant to only fix broken shunts. My guess is that your cord simply has an old school problem of multiple bad bulbs. My personal record is 7 bad bulbs in one half of a string. If you are positive that is not the answer, you can fast track the problem and call 888-858-2548.

when replacing bulbs, what voltage should be used to replace certain lengths (ie) 140 bulbs . 100 bulbs. 50 bulbs?

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

Hello, George. The thing to pay attention to is the end of the bulb with the copper wires. You can simply replace the matching LED or incandescent mini bulb as long as they have matching ends. While the amperage is different on mini lights according to brand and make, the voltage is quite similar.

Hey there, Barbie. If the socket is bad, you have two options. One, cut the socket off and heat shirk the string back together. Or, secondly, you can cut it off and use the wire pods that the Keeper comes with. Either way, you have to bypass the nonfunctioning socket.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

The only real way is to use a bulb, or two, that you know work just fine and try them in the socket. If they don't illuminate AND the Keeper is telling you power is going to the socket....it's likely bad. Also, remember to check the socket with a flashlight to ensure there is no corrosion inside of it. Most of the time, you cannot tell that is the issue without a flashlight.

[@donnadeals4473]

Do you buy lights that have 2 or 3 wires?…. Do you try to stick with one kind of lights? We really dislike the retina-burning LED or halogen bulbs.

[@ChristmasOnCrestline]

All string lights will have, depending upon the length, some bulbs with three wires. This is due to the lights getting internally daisy-chained. A 100 count set is really two 50cts wired together. To us, it is one set but internally it is made up like two. One thing I love about smart lights is that you can dim them via apps. That may be something to look into to keep them from being too bright for you, Donna.
