Electrical Question - Blueeyedwoman - 11-28-2005

Bill, Flumps, Sandog?

I hung Christmas lights and they look good. However, being a woman with no electrical knowledge at all, I just kept plugging the lights into each other and then into a strip thingy.

Question: what if it rains? Will my electricity short out?

May I take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you who've taken your time to help me out in this thread? Now please all of you--stick a screwdriver into an electrical outlet.

I like you, so I'm really being honest k. But don't you have a man somewhere nearby who you can ask these questions to? Cuz asking internet people is dumb.

Agreed, but not nearly as dumb as this trool. Just being honest. And I like you, too.

Bills recommendation of wrapping all connections in electrical (wrap them really well, start in the center and wrap outwards) is a good one. Flump is right, possibly is the correct answer. It has nothing to do with the length of the string, it is the connections that are in question.

I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. I told you I like you and I try to let you know how stupid you are without being mean. :fuckYou:

You will get a man someday, somehow, someway. I will pray for you.

Are you using the same outlet that you use to charge your vibby?

I doubt it. I heard it was gas powered, so as not to be interupted in blackouts.
