How To Use Twinkly LED Smart Light Curtains In A Halloween Yard Display! Not Just For Christmas!

We love the Twinkly Led Lights that we bought to use with our Christmas Decorations last year but they work great for Halloween and other holidays too! We’re going to open them up, show you how to hang them on your house, give you a quick tutorial on the app, and then give you a demo! #homehaunt #twinkly #halloween #halloweendecorating #halloweenlights

Welcome to Jackula’s Castle! My family has been collecting, traveling, and doing crazy stuff for years. We’ve had such a great time doing it all I think it’s time to let everyone else join in the fun. Watch us open Pokémon and other trading cards, play video games, decorate for Halloween, open toys, grow our Star Wars collections, build legos, add monsters to our Universal Monsters room, Travel, Eat and Who knows what else! Maybe we’ll even meet some families as weird as ours along the way!

Thanks for posting this!

[@JackulasCastle]

Your welcome, thanks for watching!

[@ReapR_X]

Very cool! We actually put our Christmas tree up yesterday and we decorated with a few Halloween ornaments. We have 800 Twinkly RGBW on the tree with some Halloween theme colors

[@JackulasCastle]

That’s a great idea, nice and easy to switch out the ornaments and be ready for Christmas! I really want to get some for our tree, we’ve been so focused on the yard we haven’t had a chance yet.

[@DJTarabHilalPutrus]

Are you to connect them together to become as one big curtain , is how many can you connect at one time & how ? Thanks

[@JackulasCastle]

Yes they are all connected when we are doing the demo near the end of the video. Im not sure what the limit is on how many you can connect but we had no issue with 8 of them. I go into more detail on how to connect them in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqbSip5vec19j7M

Just came across ur channel love ur content i actually just bought the twinkly pro lights for this year.keep on making great content and ur channel will grow like i been trying to do by the way i just dropped a sub.

[@JackulasCastle]

Thanks we really appreciate it! looking back on it I wish I had gone with the pro version, would have been nice to be able to get further into the programming

[@john27609]

Love your video!

[@JackulasCastle]

Thanks, I’m glad you enjoyed it!!!

[@carlscarreviews]

Nice 👌

[@JackulasCastle]

Thanks we appreciate it and thanks for watching!

[@knowYouRoots]

Good Job; how did you get the effect on the Skelton

[@JackulasCastle]

If you’re referring to the really tall one in front of the wall it’s an inferno pumpkin from Home Depot. He comes with the flame effect built in. Thanks for watching!

[@windowgraphics]

I see that you used 8 sets of curtain lights. Did you have to run power to each set individually or did you daisychain them? If you had to power each set separately, that’s a lot of outlets. Thanks

[@JackulasCastle]

Unfortunately they don’t have a socket to allow you to connect them end to end so I used a couple of extension cords that have 4 or 5 sockets spread out down the length of them

[@Jassiepoohbear]

Could you show us what the autumn falling leaves look like?

[@JackulasCastle]

Unfortunately I don’t have them hooked up right now but if your still interested at the beginning of September when they go back up just let me know and I’ll put up a video

[@garybungart7688]

How many sets of lights did you use for this display

[@JackulasCastle]

I have 8 curtains on the wall

[@andrewpearen1665]

Hey, have you tried to do halloween or xmas scenes, beyond colour effects? THANKS!

[@JackulasCastle]

Yes and unfortunately they don’t work in my situation. The scenes they have available for download are made to work on lites that are hung in the shape of a square. My lights are a really long rectangle so it zooms the image way in and cuts most of it off. I’m not sure why they won’t make scenes that you can adjust by zooming in and out. It was pretty disappointing realizing that I couldn’t make that sleigh or reindeer go across my house

[@waxinc]

How many kits did you use in your example?

[@JackulasCastle]

We’re using 8 curtains on the walls and one of the 400 strings on the gutters. Thanks for watching!

[@mikemajors1044]

No twinkly controller required for how you did it? Such mixed reviews when you try to Google and find out info.

[@JackulasCastle]

Nothing other than the app on my phone and the lights. We’ve really enjoyed them, nice and easy to use!

[@mikemajors1044]

@@JackulasCastle ty so much. They look great, looking to line the front of my house next year. I'm sure it'll be awesome!

[@JackulasCastle]

@@mikemajors1044 Your welcome! I think you’ll like them, the only problem is you’ll always want more!!

[@mikemajors1044]

@@JackulasCastle haven't started yet and already do! Hahaha

[@Bassin_with_Anthony]

Can you share how you hung up your lights? Particularly the string lights you hung on the gutter? I am finding that the lights are too small for gutter/shingle clips. Thanks

[@JackulasCastle]

I’m using the Home Accents Holiday All-Purpose Light Clips 75 packs clipped on the gutters. They are loose in there but they’ve never fallen out. We’ve had 30 mph winds the last two days and they didn’t budge. The curtains are just hung with small white nails.

[@Bassin_with_Anthony]

@@JackulasCastle awesome. Thanks!!

[@mangel_hc]

How to sync the 8 curtains to shown one animation in the 8 curtains?

[@JackulasCastle]

I created an area group using horizontal tiles. I just added a new video today called How To Set Up Twinkly Christmas Lights On Your House And Yard that goes a little more into it if you’d like to check it out. Thanks for watching!

[@RogerRamjet069]

How many boxes of 210 lights did you use for that display??

[@JackulasCastle]

We’ve got 8 curtains on the walls and one 400 string on the gutters. Thanks for watching!

[@mr_silent13]

How many boxes of light did you use and how wide across are they? Love the look

[@JackulasCastle]

Thanks, they are 4.5’ wide by 6.5’ long and we used 8 of the curtains. Thanks for watching, we really appreciate it!

[@mangel_hc]

@@JackulasCastle is possible to connect and sync the 8 curtains?

[@JackulasCastle]

Yes it is I created an area group using horizontal tiles. I just added a new video the other day called How To Set Up Twinkly Christmas Lights On Your House And Yard that goes a little more into it if you’d like to check it out. Thanks for watching!

[@rivierabaptistchurch]

How far apart is each drop line of lights?

[@JackulasCastle]

They are about 6” apart. Thanks for watching!

[@DannyBoy0619]

Did you create the fire one or was it in the app? Shit is so sweet. Lol

[@JackulasCastle]

The fire effect is one that doesn’t automatically come on the app but you can download it free in the app shop. Thanks for checking out the video, we appreciate it!

[@DannyBoy0619]

@@JackulasCastle hell yea dude. Keep it up

[@kimmcw111]

You guys did great. Are you running them from a computer or the phone app? The android Phone app isn't great for groups or many strands, it seems

[@JackulasCastle]

Thanks! We’re running them from the app on my iPhone right now. Have you updated to the new firmware on each string of lights? Mine worked way better this year with the firmware and app update

[@kimmcw111]

@@JackulasCastle yes I updated & that made it worse. Thank you for quick reply. Love the vids

[@JackulasCastle]

@@kimmcw111 That’s no good, you may want to contact Twinkly about it. The couple times I had issues with my lights they were quick to help. Thanks, we really appreciate it!

[@vincenzoadaldo1759]

How much space does a curtain take on ne wall?

[@JackulasCastle]

They’re about 4.5’ wide by 6.5’ long. It takes 8 of them to go across the front of the house minus the windows.
