Some tips on hanging your new lights. The old T5 HO fixtures I hung with electric fence wire. Great stuff to have on hand in general. I buy 1/4 mile spools at the local "farm" store. Good for whatever you need wire for around the house or in the garden. Sturdy aluminum wire. I am talking about support, hanging, wrapping not conducting elec. Hanging bird feeders. Have some in your car for emergency repairs. Wire is overkill for these new lightweight lights. I first tried duct tape and then "scotch" tape, neither lasts. I use electric tape. I never buy black electric tape. I prefer white mostly. Once in a while red. White for refectory and blending into the household environment. You cannot write on black tape. You can use your Sharpie on white tape. Make labels = cut a piece 8" long. Start it at the power cord and go out 3" and fold it back onto itself to the cord. Instant label. At your multi surge outlet you can all the cords labeled with what they go to - fan, computer, TV, radio, etc. Very handy. When you hang the lights with white elec. tape do not just wrap the light around the fixture and then attach to the shelf. Won't last. Make sure you use a long piece and have the tape go around everything at least twice. Tape to tape holds. The lights themselves do not get hot and so don't mind having tape on them. Gene
