    The LightKeeper Pro (red tool) does not work on LED lights. However, Home Depot does sell the LED Keeper (yellow tool) which does.

      Renee, according to the page - that I luckily still have 3 yrson - mine will not work on LED light strings, Rope Lights, or strings with a control box. However, it has worked on my 2 older strings with multifunction boxes, sooo... That's printed on the back, to the left of the bar code. Perhaps a newer one might, I won't say. I will say for the regular light strings, this has been a God Send!

          I can't answer that question as I'm not a HD employee. Every store is different so you should call your local store directly and ask about delivery options. I'm sure they can deliver to your home as well.

          I can't answer the question. I am only posting this response because i have had a lot of issues with the Home Depot web site, and it is good to know that i am not the only one. The web site is very untrustworthy. The only way to know for sure that your store has something is to call them up and ask them to go look, or go to the store and see for yourself. If you are attempting to purchase something online, then i wish you the best of luck.

          The Home Depot has the LightKeeper Pro for Incandescent Light Set Repair and the LED Keeper for LED Light Set Repair. Both light set repair tools are also available through The Home Depot website as well for further convenience.

            I picked it up at the store. After repeated attempts, i.e., repeating the sequence of 20 or so continuous clicking 3-4 times, I was able to light the once-dead light set. After that, it was a breeze to replace those burnout bulbs.

                    Technically, Yes. You will need to make sure you are isolating the affected strand from the common power strand if you need to use the voltage sensor. Other than that, it does a great job at isolating dead bulbs. Do not try to use this on LED strings.

                    It does. One wire simply goes from the plug to the first bulb, the second wire goes from one bulb to the next bulb, and the third wire is like an extension cord that brings power to the next section of lights on that strand.

                      Wasn't able to do any good on my 3-strand tree lights with a string all unlit. Took it back for a refund.

                      During the Christmas season, this product will be found where the Christmas lights are located. During the off season, I doubt if this product would be available in stores. You probably can order one on line though.

                      The LightKeeper Pro is typically found within the Holiday/seasonal section -- potentially near the light sets or light set accessories.

                        With the Christmas lights for sale in the store. The most important question is this: How well does this item work?. I can tell you I got one of these about 35 yrs. ago at Kmart and it has never let me down. So recently, I picked up one for my elderly parents who want to continue using their old string lights they have had probably 50 yrs and...wahlah the miracle took place restoring their lights to function.

                        It was located in the area where the replacement light bulbs are. Different stores may have different locations. Should be in the area where the individual replaement bulbs/lights are located.

                          Found them up front by the Christmas tree setups. Although that may have changed by now.

                          Open the door on the handle. Pull out the 3 button batteries in the housing and replace the 3 button batteries.

                            The three button cell batteries are located underneath the push button on top of the tester. There is a little tab that you lift up to get access to the batteries

                              Replacement batteries cost nearly as much as the tester. It may be easier to simply buy a new tester. If you insist, the battery case/lid is top/rear. Pry it open.

                                  Customers say the LightKeeper Pro is a versatile tool that effectively repairs and tests Christmas light strings, particularly incandescent ones. Many users appreciate its ability to quickly identify and fix issues, saving time and money compared to replacing entire light sets. However, some customers found it less effective on certain types of lights, particularly LED and tightly woven pre-lit trees. Overall, while experiences vary, the product is generally seen as a valuable addition to holiday preparations.

                                  A Must Have !!
                                  I have been using this for years. I must admit I could have never imagined this thing would really work but I’ll be damned it’s magic. No more yelling and screaming and yelling “I give up!” A must have for pre-lit trees. I purchased a second one just because it works so well.

                                    Why did I believe an ig video?! I have tried all the methods it tells me to try. I’ve replaced bulbs on 2 different strands. Please see the replacement bulbs light. I thought maybe it was a lemon bulb so I tried another (2nd picture). Both looking like a lantern from 1870. Anddd on top of that, it didn’t turn on any of the burnt out ones. I hate land fills and was really hoping this tool would pull though. It says 5 million sold. But what it doesn’t say, is how many have been returned.

                                      Not wanting to buy another tree, I made a last ditch effort to please the wife and bought this lightkeeper. the instructions were intimidating, but the most important thing for my tree was step 1. Plug the bulb in and pull the trigger. BOOM! the lights lit up right away. I did it for the rest of layers of the tree and it looks perfect. I followed up with the bulb tester and replaced a bunch of bulbs thanks to the included kit.

                                        100% works
                                        I fooled around with my pre-lit Christmas Tree that had at least half of the circuits not lighting up. I replaced the fuses. I trouble shot all the circuits. I pulled every bulb to make sure they were seated properly. I could not get it working after at least two hours or work. I was ready to toss my tree and spend $800 on a new one. My wife ran to HD to purchase this. I was skeptical. I pulled a random bulb, connected the strand to this and clicked it twice and the circuit lit up! Repeated the process on each circuit with between 1 to 3 clicks and each time the circuit lit up. This is some voodoo magic! And it 100% works. Amazing.

                                          I had 2 strands that were half out on my incandescent pre-lit Christmas tree and was having trouble finding the problem. The quick fix trigger did not fix the problem but I used all of the other features to fix both strands. The Bulb Puller was a big advantage vs. the pain of removing bulbs by hand. The Bulb & Fuse Testers both came in handy as I used the Audible Voltage Detector to find and replace the 4 twisted bulbs. I recommend watching all 4 videos from their website.

                                              This thing works like magic! When we got our three year old garland and tree out we were totally bummed to find half of the lights out! No way were we buying new so I did some research and found lightkeeper plus. My husband picked one up at Home Depot and fixed all but one strand! Woo hoo! Best product ever!
