Abstract: A light stake for holding a light bulb includes a spike with a body extending along a spike axis between a top end and an insertion end, a connecting base at the top end of the body, and a socket having a socket axis. The socket has a socket base, a plurality of fingers, and a strengthening fillet. The socket base is perpendicular to the socket axis and with a solid-material periphery extending on all sides of the socket axis. The fingers extend from the socket base along the socket axis, with each finger extending between a fixed end near the socket base and a movable end. The strengthening fillet is at the intersection between the fixed end of each finger and the socket base, and increases the local thickness of each fixed end and of the socket base for increased rigidity of the fixed end.

Abstract: A clip device for holding a bulb in fixed relationship relative to a ridgeline of a roof. The clip device includes a front side and a back side opposite the front side, a top side and a bottom side opposite the top side, and a first side and a second side opposite the first side. Two shoulders transition into corresponding legs having at least one hook on each leg. A top portion of the clip device includes a finger portions terminating with respective clip portions at their tips. Tabs are arranged along the fingers. The legs are configured such that spreading the legs away from one another causes the finger portions to bend toward one another, and squeezing the legs together causes the finger portions to bend away from one another.

Abstract: A clip for a light bulb comprises a clip base and separately formed socket. The clip base comprises a baseplate with top and bottom surfaces, and a clip arm extending over the baseplate top surface. The socket comprises a socket base with socket base top and bottom sides, and a plurality of fingers positioned on the socket base top side. A receptacle is formed between the plurality of fingers and the socket base top side, that is sized and shaped to receive the light bulb. A connecting flange projects from the socket base bottom side, and an aperture is formed in the baseplate that is sized and shaped to receive the connecting flange and rotatably couple the socket to the clip base.
