Solution for cutting plug at tree topper and hooking.

[Carsten]

Hey everyone, 

I'd like to add a second color to my 16-channel megatree, but the topper is already completely covered by the add-a-string female connectors (that are not attached to anything).  

Has anyone come up with a solution for cutting off the socket and replacing it with something that can be hung over a small megatree topper hook?

Thanks in advance for any ideas!

If you CUT, then you must INSULATE very well.

How are you connecting the strings at the top? I have 64 strings, red, green, blue and white on mine but I hang my connectors so they don't crowd the top plus it keeps water out.
