SnowmanMN Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Hi. New to the forum but been doing some simple LOR displays for Halloween and Christmas for a couple years but new to using Pixel Mounting strips (https://store.lightorama.com/pimost.html). Why are mounting strips sold with 95 holes when lights are [typically] sold in 50 lights per strand? I plan to use square pixels and can’t wrap my head around why not 100 holes or more (extra for mounting)? Appreciate your help, -Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilMassey Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Just use a zip tie to add more length. That's what the small holes are for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris4851 Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 What type of lights are these used with? Will they work with the Cosmic Color Bulb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowmanMN Posted November 4, 2021 Author Share Posted November 4, 2021 I’m using Square pixel bulbs. I’m trying to have a length of 100 bulbs + extra space on both ends to secure the strip. Thank you all for your responses. 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vince4xmas Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Make sure and add a strain relief clip (MISR) from Holiday Coro on each end. They work well for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
