Unusual Set of 20 Woolworth Hybrid Christmas Lights Restoration - Part 2 | Soldering Broken Wires

Welcome to the Vintage Christmas Lights UK YouTube Channel.

This is part two of three in a series of videos repairing and restoring this unusual set of lights I got on ebay.

In this video I repair the damaged wires, well, I try too lol, at least it's safe.

Apologies for the lack of content, I will endeavour to give you more content in the next few weeks.

I hope you enjoyed this new video!

We will be slowly adding videos over the next few weeks, we have been filming multiple videos featuring classic sets of Christmas Lights that were sold in the UK, how to fix and restore them, guides, tips, hints and guides, plus videos of unique lights in operation.

If you have any interesting Christmas Light videos that we could add to are archive then leave a comment below with a link to the video and it will be added, none of our videos are monetized and are here for all to view and enjoy. ;)

A little 'light' history.

The early 90's were the begining of the end for 'classic' style Christmas light sets, new manufacturing and safety laws saw the delicate thinner cables replaced with thick and bulky black cables for 240v sets of lights making them look cumbersome and chunky, NOMA still produce some 'classic style' sets of lights, identical to the late 80's lights but unfortunatally with this thick cable.

Over the years, Christmas lights have been replaced with characterless, shadeless sets of lights, then eventually the domination of LED lights.

We do hope that one of the legacy firms like PIFCO or NOMA bring back the classic style lights, perhaps in low voltage LED form in sets of 20 and 40, and possibly 60-100 too with the old style shades, a mix and match option would be brilliant.

What do you think ?

Don't get me wrong, there are some modern lights I do like, and I will try to do some videos about them too
