Splitting 24\' Christmas Light strands into 2 12\'s
Howdy,
I have a whole bunch of new Forever Bright "blue strawberry" lights sets in the 24 foot length. The wiring looks a bit strange - two wires from the plug, splitting into three wires, and then back to two wires near the far end. Is it possible to split some of these 24' strands into two 12' strands ? The place I bought from only had 24' strands, and I have a couple 36' runs on my house. If someone can explain how to tell which wires need to be cut, where, and which ones get wired to the new plug, I'd appreciate the help. As I indicate a need for 36' runs, I don't necessarily need a plug at the end of the run - it could just terminate at the last light if that is easier. Thanks for any help!
Dave
