ALL-PURPOSE

These are sturdier than many light clips that I have bought before. They work well and they're very versatile due to the fact that the part that holds the lamp can rotate 90°. Also, the part that slides under the shingles is very rigid which makes it easier to get in place. The only negative I would say is the fact that you have to assemble everyone before you can use them because they come in two parts.

Nice Christmas light clips. Good value. Fast shipping. Will come in handy. Well made. Recommend product. Recommend seller.

Bought these for Christmas lights for the outside of the house. They work great and are so easy to use. The lights don’t fall off at all.

Good clips, but pretty much only last one season being they’re plastic. When taking them down, they snap and break. They are pretty simple to use, but don’t last.

These clips work great on both gutters and asphalt roof shingles. If you want to use the bulb-base holder function you have to break off the clip and plug it into the clip base...a little cumbersome but it works. Since I didn't use the base clip they worked great for me. Not heavy duty but good enough.

I love this clip. It was extremely easy to snap over the lip of my gutters and I found it to be far more versatile than others I have used in the past. You can hang multiple strings of light on each clip. The top portion breaks off and can be snapped into a hole on the front, top edge of the main body. The snap off portion has two different sizes of receptacle holes to allow you to snap mini lights into the smaller rear hole or larger bulb housings into the larger of the two. Thus, I ran my blue mini lights the entire length of the gutter in the snap off clip. But also wanted to attach my meteor shower tube lights underneath the long runs of blue bulbs. That was easy to do since the very bottom of this clip has a small plastic loop into which you could actually fit more than one set of cords for string lights, for whatever you want. Our theme is all blue except for the meteor shower tube lights which are bright white (not warm white).So I ended up with the upper detachable piece holding my blue bulb lights running horizontally the full length of my gutters. Next, I hung my 12" long cascading meteor shower white tubes the length of the gutters, using the small round hook at the bottom the gutter clip, followed by inserting blue icicle lights into the same round hook so that I had blue icicles dropping down between and behind the meteor shower.After using these for the first time, I decided to throw away my previously owned clips which did not allow as much versatility in arranging multiple lighting effects off of one set of clips.Although I used the gutters for attachment, you can also slip the top rear portion of this clip underneath the leading edge of you shingles. Great clip and I ordered 400, knowing that I would use these for many years to come.

We have a cement tile roof and every other clip I’ve tried to hang Christmas lights would hold when clipped to the tiles. The edge tiles vary in thickness from about 1/2” to 3/4”. When I did find clips that held onto the tiles, they wouldn’t hold the light strings securely or in the proper direction. Bought these after checking theirdimensions. They looked to be wide enough to clip onto the tiles, and the added adjustable light bulb/string holder seemed like it all would be ideal. Standing on top of a 24’ ladder to hang our lights, I found these were easy to clip on to the roofing tiles and on to the rain gutters. With 400 clips in the box, I doubt I’ll need even half that many. So I’ll give some to be neighbors who have regular asphalt roofs, see if they also work on those.Update 10 months later. I’ve downgraded my review from 5 to 1 star. Wanted to leave my Christmas up year round on the back roof line (2 stories high, 24’ extension ladder needed) but have now taken them down permanently. About a month ago one string of lights broke away from the rain gutter, just dangling by our kitchen windows. When I took that string down I found ALL of the plastic hooks had become very brittle and shattered. Yesterday another section came off the gutters. Same thing, every one of these hooks had shattered. They are obviously not meant to withstand being exposed to year round weather conditions. Since I’m nearly 80 and not supposed to climb ladders or go up on our roof, the lights on the back of our house are now going never be put back up.

UPDATE AUGUST 2022: 3-StarsThe other day I noticed a couple of the clips had broken, causing a couple of the bulbs to come off the roofline. The next day, many more clips were broken so a whole section of lights where now hanging down. I decided to take all the lights down. I then noticed almost half of the clips were broken (out of about 60). They served me well for about 7 months. I had put them up in the winter. Now it's the blazing heat of the summer, which I can only assume caused their demise. The blazing hot sun combined with crazy high temps caused them to become brittle and crack.So I guess might point is, these are good clips for temporary use, not 365 days per year use.ORIGNAL REVIEW: JANUARY 2022: 5-StarsThey came in a very generic, industrial looking box. Not a retail package. The clips themselves are perfect! I have LED bulb lights on my house, the larger round bulbs, not the mini-LED one like typical Christmas lights. So I was a little worried these clips would be too small. But they are very multi purpose! They easily accommodated the lights I have and I can tell they would easily accommodate mini-lights also. They worked well on both the edge of my gutter and edge of roof shingles. You just have to separate the two parts of the clip, snap them together in the little hole and you can adjust to any angle you need. I was even able to use them to hold some of the wire where it needed to be anchored to the roofline because it also has a little clip area for just such usage. Very happy with this purchase!
