I had two strands of lights on my pre lit tree that weren't working. Bought this great tool and had them both working in a very short time. What a time saver and GREAT product!
Down to earth every persons nightmare on "Tree Day"! To all you Nay Sayers, if you can afford another tree, go for it, but those of us who can't buy another house, or tree, I say thanks for this video! Good work!
Never in a million years did I think this product would work but it did. I bought it today at Home Depot for $21. I carefully took it out of the package thinking that I'd return it tomorrow. After watching this helpful video I pulled the trigger 5-10 times on 4 different strands and couldn't believe my eyes when they lit up. WOW. great product. Already paid for itself.
Hey Eddie first unplug the tree , second that tool has bulb sockets puller (you don't have to strain yourself ) ,third with the voltage sensor you work testing from the first bulb to the last , when the tester doesn't beep the bulb before that one is bad ! Just a little hint for you ! :)
Thank you for posting this video. The one from the Light Keeper Pro company shows the strand laid out on a table. Fixing a pre lit tree, like you did, and I had, is more difficult. Now, thanks to your posting, our tree is working perfectly! Merry Christmas.
Good job. I owned one for several years and never knew how to use it. Maybe I was impatient (or in-patient)? Maybe I was wearing sunglasses? But your video was great, minus the Chief's shirt. Sorry - go Bears! But seriously, very good job explaining and demonstrating the functionality of this invention. No more will I hear my wife telling me, "get the light keeper pro and fix the tree lights." I work on networks and forensics but never took the time to see how this tool really works. It does. Sorry my wonderful wife. And if the Bear's are not in the bowl, then I am 99% behind the Chief's.
Great video!! I just saw an ad on TV for this product and I had to see how it *_really_* worked and your *real world* demonstration was very helpful and informative. It's not as simply as the ad implied ( "just click 3 times"), but I now understand how the process works and what the device is actually doing. Thank you for taking the time to show us your experience!
Thank you. I appreciate this honest review and thorough demonstration of this tool because I was considering buying one. I've just gotten out all my lights out to decorate for Christmas and every one of the 7 strands I use for my Christmas tree is half out! That's $32 worth of lights which it's cheaper to simply buy this thing and replace one bulb instead of the whole strand. I'm tired of throwing out half-strands. I shudder to think of how much money I've wasted doing that for the last I don't know how many years now when I could've bought this and saved myself a bundle.
Hi....new subscriber. ...I keep white lights out all year long on an arch, because I lived near the woods, with no street lights. Was happy to see someone didn't get it on the first click just like I had experienced.with mine!! LOL....Thank you so much for this video!!!! And ur detailed info, cuz my clicker only had 1, 2, 3 on the front label....and it's not that easy sometimes!! Ty for the 30 clicks also, cuz sum of mine took 28!!! Ty Ty Ty!!
Thank you so much for this video, you made it so easy to understand (much better than the directions.) And it WORKED I fixed the tree. In the past I would have purchased a new tree (which isn't cheap) and you saved me a lot of money by taking the time to show us how to use this product. Again THANK YOU!!!!
Thank you for this Video I bought this at a yard sale & had no instructions & had no idea how to use it until I saw this video thank you so much Great product I Love it! It saves me so much time & hassle with my Xmas light. 😉
Thank you so much for this video. It was so helpful to me. I purchased the Light Keeper Pro knowing that part of my tree did not light last year. But I was afraid to use it once I got it. I know nothing about electricity and after watching some other CZcams videos for this tool, I was still not brave enough to try it out on my own. The other videos were over my head, I guess. But your explanation along with watching exactly how you did every step was so helpful. It gave me the confidence to try and within a few minutes I have my tree entirely lit! Don't pay any attention to the negative reviews on here. You did a great video and were of great service to me. Thank you so much!
Very kind of you to take the time to do this video for the rest of us. I just put up my tree today and half the lights are not working. I just ordered Light Keeper Pro on Amazon and hopefully it will solve the problem.
Just tried this and it worked perfectly. After seven clicks the lights cam on. they are prewired in the tree so checking them first just wasn't an option. this tool definitely gave the tree another year or two of life. thanks.
Great. Little long winded for those that know how the lights work, but for the newby great information. Fast forward if you know how these lights work. You should really set up or add an affiliate link to the product in the info section. Couple extra bucks well deserved. I wouldn't have bought it before this review.
Hey dude thanks for the video! I was actually able to fix my whole line by using the shunt fixer on the very first light after the plug, it was crazy! But awesome! I did watch the rest of your video. And glad I did! Thanks again! Merry Christmas! Chiefs stink
I want to thank you very much. I sorta understood the directions but, was confused how when many bulbs are on one brand it was gonna show me no beeping. The first way didnt work for me either. Also using it for a tree. Wish me luck :). Merry Christmas
great video......simple to follow allow with what he's doing. Went out to Menards, and tried out on my tree that only 1/3rd of bulbs lit. Within seconds - the lights were on. Didn't have to go to step 2 - or B (as he mentions in video). Great video to save and watch when you need a refresher course.
Hi Eddie, great video! I bought one of those Light Keeper Pros too. I think it was about ten years ago and I love it! It is a bit confusing at first but it's so worth getting one. I've fixed so many things with it. 😊🎄 Like you, I fixed the lights on our artificial tree, I fixed two reindeer that we had, I've fixed a bunch of our garlands, and I also fixed a few sections of our icicle lights. It's definitely saved us a lot of money over the years. 😊 Something to add in regards to changing out the bulbs like you did would be, don't throw out all of the lights and their sockets (not sure what the thing that the lights are in is called so I'm just going to call them sockets 😉) you are getting rid of strands of lights. Save at least some of the lights that are still good and their sockets because you can use them on something else that needs them later on instead of buying more. Just be sure that the wattage or whatever is the same so you don't blow out all of the bulbs. You also may need a different sized socket so saving those too may come in handy. I know that they have for me. A small organizing case works great to store everything in. I bought one and I use every year. Another quick tip, always buy an extra set of lights when you are buying them, the extra set can be used to change the lights out here and there as they are needed. Too many lights out on a strand at one time isn't good for them. Thanks for sharing your video with all of us Eddie, you did a great job! Happy holidays! ⛄🎄⛄
The trigger sends a short pulse of high voltage through all the bulbs in the series loop, Mini light set bulbs are unique they (other then a red tipped blinker bulb) have a tiny wire shunt in each bulb that is supposed to react when a bulb burns out and create a circuit through the burned out bulb ,, they don;t always work , the high voltage pulse causes the bad shunt wire in the bulb to operate and complete the circuit through the bad bulb , of course this wont work with a bulb with a broken lead , or a missing bulb,, or broken wire.. using the voltage detector finds those kinds of circut breaks
This video just saved my marriage. But really, more importantly, it saved Christmas. I don’t remember anything about electricity and the item’s instructions were very frustratingly confusing to me. My husband explaining them to me was somehow more infuriating. You’re doing the lord’s work, man.
After watching your review, I believe I will invest in the lightkeeper pro. I have one small section of lights out on my very expensive pre-lit tree that have gone out AFTER the tree was up and totally decorated so I'm hoping this will do the trick for me as well. Thanks for the video, I was unsure if this thing was worth the $20 before watching!
I am so glad that you took the time to test this out for us!!! Thank-you so much!!! We just bought one and the tree problems have been resolved!!! Yay!!!! PS We also appreciate the instruction with regards to your electrical knowledge. I learned more than I thought I would! All the best to you and yours for a Happy Christmas :)
Great vid, well done. But just a tip if I may,,,, Instead of tracing the entire stran, just place the tester on the wire that leads from one branch to the other. If the tester beeps on the wire leading to a branch, and, it beeps on the wire leading away from that same branch onto the next branch, then that branch is good. If the tester beeps on the wire leading onto a branch, but it does beep on the wire leading away from that same branch, then that is your problem branch,,,,
I was never able to fix ANY of my tree lights with the Lightkeeper Pro. This is a Costco tree. We gave up and bought lights from Lowes and we replace them (keeping the tree, which we like). Could not find a blown fuse. Tried the strand on known-good power.
About to start my Christmas decorating in a few weeks,but I am already prepping myself. Therefore, I discovered that our 2 year old $300.00 pre lit tree has many lights out. Hopefully this will help my cause:-). Thanks for the information.
@@hollisterman06 yeah did it work like a charm? I have a tree i barely bought last year and the top portion dont light up i thought about re string it with new lights but seems like a huge hassle
I was happy to find the video- been thinking of getting one! But the comment about clicking the damn thing so many times and finally giving up and killing it really made my day. NOT a rude thing against the gentleman who shared his expertise
@@catw6998 The instructions indicate that if the defective shunt isn't corrected after 20 or so clicks then the problem is not a defective shunt. You can go to 30 if you want. Best to use a socket near the middle of the string so the strength of the pulse will be distributed more evenly among all the bulbs.
Thank you! I've got one of these and know it works....just couldn't remember how to use it! I appreciate the refresher. By the way, I saw on the official site that it won't work on LED lights. Maybe they have come out with a new one that will. LED hurt my eyes so I don't plan on having any of those if I can help it. :-) edit: just looked and they do have one for LED now as well!
Thank you! I thought i had to buy thevoltage meter seperatly. Ive been trying to fix my lights for a whole week.literally. Wish i knew they made those many years ago. My new bulbs with the green part on the bottome wont fit in my older lights.would this work ?
If you unplug the tree and then just plug the offending strand into an extension cord you will eliminate any interference from other working strands, thus making your testing faste, easier and more accurate.
Thanks for the video, it helped me to find out the name of the device and where to get one. If you do another video my man, don't mumble so much, be positive and know what you're going to say.
Maybe you should take a basic course on Alternating Current (AC) before describing how AC Current flows. What you described was more like Direct Current (DC).
I had to pull the trigger at least 100 times b4 the branches lit. 30 was not enough. Also, slow pace pulls seem to work better than fast trigger pulls.
funny! I was in the same boat. finally, I poured a glass of whiskey on ice and watched the video. This guy finally made me understand how to use this very clever tool.
Thank you so much for posting this video! I read the instructions but didn't understand what it was saying. You were very helpful.

Great instructions - much better than those provided by the manufacturer. Thanks so much!
Thank you! The instructions that came with my Light Pro Keeper weren't clear at all, but your video really helped a lot!

Oh man this video just blew my father in laws mind (retired electrician) and it's going to save him probably $100 in in new lights.
Thank you!!!
Thank You sir. Worked on the first step. I'm sure I'll be revisiting at some point in the future. Happy Holidays to you and yours. :-)
Thanks for doing this video. I bought one of these devices years ago and obviously I never used it properly.

Its been years but thank you!!

Just got one works great, thanks for the vid
Thank you for your video !!! You save me hours, followed your instructions for my prelit tree and it worked like a charm:).
Leigh Cofrin do you know if this works on led lights .?.my tree has led lights
There is one for LED lights too - but they only work for one type
Thank you great video, Christmas tree light all working now. Merry Christmas.
Thanks for the video. Sure beats having to read through four pages of instructions, most of which don't apply to my problem.
Gracias!! = Thanks
Thanks to I learned how to use it n finally fix mine.

Thanks! I have one headed to my house now! Go Chiefs!
What was your issue? Pre lit tree?

Awesome instructional vid! Thank you!
Thanks for the help! I just bought one.
Merry Christmas Eddie Greenwood 2020!
thanks for your demo. I now know that the batteries in my device are dead. It was not making the sounds as yours did. Glad it worked!
some of you people are really jerks......

Is 30 clicks the max times needed?

Definitely works. Use it all the time
Great Demo! Thanks
Very good sir, thank you!
you have to hold socket for it to work mine works that I have save all my dad's Christmas lights and it works great
If you unplug the tree and then just plug the offending strand into an extension cord you will eliminate any interference from other working strands, thus making your testing faste, easier and more accurate.
unless your tree has a custom wired and clipped in set like many artificial trees do..
Thanks for the video, it helped me to find out the name of the device and where to get one. If you do another video my man, don't mumble so much, be positive and know what you're going to say.
Maybe you should take a basic course on Alternating Current (AC) before describing how AC Current flows. What you described was more like Direct Current (DC).
Thanks for the great video...we just got one!
Thanks for the video! You sold me :)
I had to pull the trigger at least 100 times b4 the branches lit. 30 was not enough. Also, slow pace pulls seem to work better than fast trigger pulls.
Great video
He is funny. Made me laugh. Nice house by the way.
Great vid friend. Thanks!
Omg youre a freaking life saver!!! I was so frustrated and getting ready to through the whole darn tree out!! Lol P.S. youre so freaking cute!!!
they work great I use it my decorateing
After pulling the trigger 100 times and no result. I pulled out my pistol and pulled the trigger on the "Light Keeper"
Best laugh of day
funny! I was in the same boat. finally, I poured a glass of whiskey on ice and watched the video. This guy finally made me understand how to use this very clever tool.
