Mark Andrew Holmes :
I use old bits of plastic conduit cut a bit to long, tie rap in right place, when you cut the hole you can fish it out and use it again

People need to realise, it’s not every light, it’s just the hard to position correctly. These are superb.

Great idea and theory but too expensive. I’ve used banding for years to keep the spot cables in place.

I use all round band for this all the time works a dream apart from when the plasterboarder pins my cable between the timber and board still

Eclipse Electrical :
Clipp along one joist, then where downlight is in middle, clip to the other joist, hang cable in middle.

Aaron Mcguire :
Use a bit of cable, nail it to both joists and tape the spot cables wherever you need. Just use an off cut so it cost nothing 😂

MrBone :
Would be better if you could have a bit which snapped off once plasterboard was up for most of it to be re used, sort of like GoPro mounts but snap of

It’s called scrap wood when us electricians come through the framers should be in fact done. Leaving behind plenty of scrap to frame out ceiling wires

Gareth Neal20 :
That bit of plastic probably costs about 20p to make. Charging £2.60 for something that should be less than £1 is the problem.

Just cable clip the end of the looped cable so it sits up out of the gyprockers way

How much is a pack of cable ties? I use 3 of them per downlights cut them when my hole is cut and lost a few pennies.

danbakey :
Just a clip works, metal banding strap is bad idea any movement in the timbers it will over time rub on the cable. If it ain’t broke

AATMA :
Just use a piece of wire instead of a band
