Default How to shorten christmas light strings to fit your need

I have a quandry and would like some help on this matter. I need to
shorten christmas light strings to fit certain decorations but have no
idea how this is done. What I am using are the mini light sets with plugs
on both ends. Cutting the end off is not a problem. That is pretty
straight forward. I just need to shorten the length.

Hi,
You can't. If you shorted the length with less number of lights they'll
burn up from over voltage condition.
