  1. Step 1: Unwrap the Main Strand.

    Carefully unwrap the main horizontal cable (the one with the USB plug) from its packaging. Do not untangle the individual vertical strings yet.

  2. Step 2: Hang the Main Cable.

    Hang the unwrapped main horizontal cable in your desired location, such as on a curtain rod or wall. The individual vertical strings should still be bundled.

  3. Step 3: Unravel Vertical Strands.

    Once the main cable is securely in place, carefully unravel each individual vertical copper wire strand from top to bottom. Be gentle to avoid tangling or damaging the wires.

  4. Step 4: Secure the Middle Part (Optional).

    If desired, use the included zip ties to secure the middle part of the main horizontal cable to your rod or mounting surface for added stability.

  5. Step 5: Connect Power.

    Plug the USB connector into a compatible 5V USB power source, such as a USB charger, power bank, laptop, or cellphone adapter.

Important Safety Note:

  • ⚠ Do not pull forcefully on the lights to prevent hook soldering damage.
  • ⚠ Avoid tangling the copper wire to prevent breakage.
  • ⚠ The USB interface is not waterproof. Keep it dry when using the lights in wet or rainy conditions.
