PIFCO Merrylites - 1970s Set
In this video, we have a look down the deep dive archive rabbit hole on the subject of, PIFCO Merrylites.
This video took over 8 hours to edit and was only supposed to be a simple edit, it slowly spiralled!
Apologies for the jump-scare, I did it to ease the monotony of editing this behemoth of a video.

A little 'light' history.
The early 90s 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 80s lights, but unfortunately with the thick cable.
But even these are going away slowly but surely and replaced with characterless, shadeless sets of LED lights.
There are a lot of modern lights that we do like!
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 ?
