Welcome to the Vintage Christmas Lights UK YouTube Channel.
I hope you enjoyed this new video!
Our aim is to provide videos featuring the 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 and deep dives into our extensive Christmas Light Archive.
If you have any interesting Christmas Light videos that we could add to are YouTube channel to archive for everyone, please leave a comment below with a link to the video, and it will be added.
None of your videos are monetized, and they are here for all to view and enjoy. ;)

A little 'light' history.
The early 90's were the beginning 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 ones 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 unfortunately with this thick cable.
Over the years, Christmas lights have been replaced with characterless, shadeless sets of lights, then eventually we got the domination of LED lights.
Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of modern lights that I do like, and I will try to do some videos about them too.
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 ?
