For those who put up an electric car Menorah, how long before Chanukah do you put it up? Usually we do a week ahead and not many have it up then, but we don't really have time during the week where both of us are able to do it together while kids sleep etc. Does it seem off to have it to early? I feel like I'm a way it can remind some people Chanukah is coming when they see it, especially those who aren't necessarily particular about celebrating it.

If x-mas stuff is out, your menorah can be out.

What's an electric car menorah? Regardless, the rule in our house was always that Chanukah music and decorations can start Rosh Chodesh Kislev.

Thanks I like the perspective here. And a car Menorah is a chabad thing. There are parades every year and some people just like it

Oh, like literally? The car with the menorah on top? I didn't know it was something people did individually, just for the parades. Learn something new every day. Smile I still hold by Rosh Chodesh Kislev, anyway.
