This is a ALL IN ONE clip in use, you can see how it slides under shingles on your roof. It can also be used on gutters, or wherever else you can securely clip it. It can hold C7, C9, Mini lights, and even some LED lights. The brother to the ALL IN ONE is the ALL IN ONE PLUS, it's similar in appearance but has a couple more features that gives it the PLUS status. The clip that goes around a gutter or on top of a shingle has an extra hook for hanging wire. For example, if you were using the ALL IN ONE PLUS on your gutters to hold C7 bulbs and wanted to hang icicle lights as well you could with this one clip.There are other multi use clips, such as the omni clip, and are very popular because of the large number of uses. Clips that have a single use, like Shingle Tabs, are great if you don't need all the bells and whistles.
Single Tab Clips, Bi-Axle Clips, Icicle Clips, and the like are all single use clips. They generally can only hold one (sometimes two) type(s) of bulb. Most of these clips don't require any sort of permanent installation, some clips do. The C-Clip, the Parapet Clip (which works with the Shingle Tab clip), the Mini Light Adhesive Clip, the Quick Clip, and so on do require some sort of installation that can be permanent. Some clips use a sticky double sided adhesive pad and/or require nailing or screwing down. This can pose a problem for those not wanting to put holes in their siding or roof line, but in most cases these clips are uses for more commercial or year around lighting.I hope you've learned a little something about Christmas Lights clips, head over to our Clips page to see our entire selection of clips.
