100 C7 or C9 Magnetic Christmas Light Clips SPT-1

C9 light string magnets

Good solution for hanging C9 lights on metal rain gutters. Once they are all up they seem to work well and hold in most winter weather conditions including snow and heavy rainfall. The challenge is in hanging them. Tricky to keep from pulling off while hanging these with just one person as they disengage easily with any downward weight applied to the strings while installing them. Once that happens you get a domino effect where they all pull off. Installing seems to work best if 2 people are involved. One person to install the lights the second person to hold the remaining string in the air to keep the weight off the lights just hung. Using that method it goes pretty fast and once the whole string is up it works well as mentioned above.

Sweet set up

The magnet clips made things a breeze when install lights on a metal roof. It’s so much quicker installing on metal roofs than with shingles w/ shingle clips. I was hesitant install lights on metal roofs but now I see it’s so much faster and easier I would rather take on metal roofs over your shingle roofs. We recently had high winds due to cold front moving in and the lights didn’t budge at all. Those small magnets are pretty strong and they’ll be my go to with any metal roof lines to install Xmas lights.

Love these!!

These were amazing and so easy to install. I put all the clips on and handed them up to the roof where my husband just barely reached over to just pop them on. I used two at the ends where I plugged them into an extension cord. Secured the extension cord and perfect!
