    The hanging method for the tube lights is something I'm actually trying to figure out right now so this video is perfect. All sorts of tube lights or light bars advertise or sell with eyebolts but then then the retailer's have zero suggestions for how to hang them with the other optional accessories and looking online for efficient methods you discover it's not exactly a hot topic. The be all end all would be something like what you've got set up but with a spring loaded holder of some sort on the top end. Like an auto locking tape measure. Just pull the fixture down where you want it then press the unlock button, raise it up, let go and it's locked in at the shorter length.

    I recently had to hang a 300' line of string lights zig-zagging over a yard on hooks drilled into parallel overhangs on each side of the yard.
    The director kept asking for minor height adjustments which required me to visit each hook to pass the slack from the previous zig to the next zag and repeating all the way down the line. I really did not expect him to be so specific about the height or I might have looked for a solution like this beforehand. Would've saved me 30 minutes of work.
    Thank you for continuing to provide such excellent resources for our work!

    My method for this sort of tube hanging has always been to tie sliding hitches with trick line, but this would be much stronger & quicker!

      I haven't tried fitting the hook onto the eyebolts that u have, they may be too thick for the hook, but if they are I could just use a cable tie between the hook and the eye bolt to get the connection.
