Hello
I have a set of the yoyo style light hangers. I can't seem to figure out the correct way to use them. I don't usually have an issue with these types of things but they have me stumped. Any pictures or descriptions would be great.
Thanks!

Just put a pair of screw in hooks where you want to hang the light from, attach the string of the yoyos to the light through it's mounting holes and hang it up.
To lower the light, support the weight on the string and slacken the wingnut on the side of one hanger at a time, lower it to the desired level and re-tighten the wingnut, then repeat for the other side. To raise the light simply lift it to the point you want it to be and the hangers should lock in place. Some drop slightly when you let go, especially if they are close to their weight limit, so lower it until they take the weight, and raise again if necessary until you reach the desired height.

Thanks! I figured out how to search also, I should have looked for "yoyo".

I know your right about the wire hangers being better. I let the string of the yoyo rub on something and it snapped! Do you have a picture of it set up?
