Christmas Tree lights, Holiday Lights or mini lights break easily. It’s frustrating and time consuming when it happens not to mention you have to go out and buy more Christmas Tree lights, mini lights or what ever you use. If you want to attempt to repair them, I’ll give a good link in just a minute. For now, lets focus on how not to break Christmas Tree lights, mini lights or any other type of holiday lights. Handle them properly. I’m not saying gently necessarily, just, perhaps, a bit differently than you’ve thought of before. Your typical Christmas Tree lights are made with very thin electrical wire. They are not made to be pulled or yanked apart annually nor are they made to be stored by being folded with right angles. Avoid these activities and your lights will last. How do you do that. SIMPLE! Use STOR’EM spools. Why!!!?? Because they are round spools. This avoids right angles, AND, tangles. By storing your Christmas lights, holiday lights or any other mini lights on STOR’EM spools you’ll increase the useful life of your lights tremendously and eliminate the mess and frustration of storing and untangling your Christmas lights. I’ll give you two more good reasons. First, using STOR’EM is earth friendly because you won’t have to throw away lights as often and STOR’EM is made from recycled plastic. Second, LED lights are soon going to take over the Christmas Tree, mini light and outdoor holiday light market and they are far more expensive than standard Holiday mini lights. So get ahead of the curve and try STOR’EM spools to store your Christmas Tree, Holiday lights or mini lights or any other string like item you may have. It’s fast, easy and the best way to store your holiday lights.
Now, if you must fix your lights because they were tangled and you pulled them apart, try this device the “Light Keeper Pro“. It works!

Want a better way to store and use your Christmas lights, Christmas Tree lights, mini lights and more? Tired of dealing with a tangled mess of Christmas lights? There is a way to use and store your indoor/outdoor mini Christmas lights that eliminates tangles, saves time and can even put the fun back into this annual chore. It’s called STOR’EM. Why is this a better, faster way to store your Christmas Lights? Lots of reasons!! Easy to use year after year, faster to use, eliminates the mess, and it is made in the U.S. from recycled plastic. Most importantly, if you eliminate tangles and don’t have to pull apart your lights every year they will last longer. The tiny wires that make up Christmas Lights and other holiday lights are easily broken. When Christmas lights are stored and used properly, they will last much longer. As LED lights become more and more prevalent, this fact is worth considering as LED lights are far more expensive than traditional mini Christmas Lights.
STOR’EM is a specially designed, snap together spool made to attach to a powered driver from either end making the process of storing your Christmas Lights much faster. Due to the fact it is a round storage device, your Christmas lights are easy to wind and store without tangles, quickly. Connect your driver or ours to a STOR’EM spool and wind and store your Christmas Tree lights in minutes. Place 4 to 6 strings of lights on each spool. Fit your entire tree worth of indoor/outdoor mini Christmas lights on one set of STOR’EM spools. Also, use the STOR’EM device to wind and store all your indoor/outdoor mini Christmas lights. Use the powered STOR’EMdriver to walk along your shrubs or bushes or around a tree winding and unwinding your Christmas lights much faster than ever before. can also be used for rope, string, garland extension cords and more. Not made for use with any type of glass lights.
Once your Christmas Lights, or any holiday lights are on a STOR’EM spool, they are easy to store. Spools will stand on either end on a shelf, in a container or on a peg board. When ready to use, simply connect to the driver to the spool and you are ready to go. This is the “must have” gadget of the year. Think of all people who are difficult to find gift ideas for. STOR’EM makes a perfect gift idea.
