LED Outdoor Shatterproof String Lights

I was unsure of the quality as the price was very reasonable. Package came same day and had them hanging around the garden in less that 10 mins. So easy. I plugged them in indoors to see the brightness. My initial thought was they were going to be too bright but when the sun went down they were a beautiful soft warm glow. Perfect. I just ordered another 100 footer.
Oh another thing, they are dimmable.

Update- the light manufacturer reached out and offered to make things right even though this was an Amazon issue and not their issue. Updating my rating.
Received 4 used light strands that were dirty and scratched and one strand didn’t even work. Luckily just a burnt out fuse. The lights worked well anyway and a fuse swap got the broken strand going. Typical buyer beware from Amazon now a days. This brand of lights worked well and appear sturdy; not happy with seller sending used and broken lights when I paid for new.

These lights are fantastic. I bought a couple sets, one for our screened in porch and the other for a firepit project I just completed. They’re bright enough to give off some ambient light but not too bright that they’ll blind you at night and ruin the mood. LEDs will last forever as long as you can keep water out of them. I live where we get all 4 seasons: freezing temperatures, snow and ice along with rainy spring seasons and hot, humid summers – so time will tell how they hold up. The bulb housings are plastic so they should be durable long term and you don’t have to worry about breaking them. Each set come with a couple spare LED bulbs and housings which is a nice touch, be sure to hold on to those.

50ft are going for $27 right now with a 30% off coupon, I can’t find anything negative about these and for the price if I had to replace them every couple years I wouldn’t be too upset about it.

The ones on the porch are connected to a remote switch that I can control from inside, and the ones over the firepit are plugged into a dusk/dawn sensor to come on every night. I ran wire in conduit up the side of the post to an outlet so that way I didn’t have the bulbs running down the side of the post making it look tacky. There isn’t a huge distance between where your plug is and where the first light starts, so take that into consideration for your project. You’d want to avoid using extension cords in a situation like this as that’s just another spot for water ingress. These make for great ambient lighting next to our pool and give off enough light to keep people from tripping on stuff in the yard.

This is such a simple project that will make a world of difference to your entertaining space, guests will absolutely love these and want to pick up a set for their place.
