100ft 2-Pack Outdoor G40 LED Globe String Lights Dimmable Waterproof Shatterproof Light Strings with 52 Bulbs Connectable Commercial Hanging Lights for Christmas Patio House Backyard Balcony Party

I have a 100 ft. fence behind my home that i wanted to light year round. These bulbs will help me do that with a minimum of fuss, long life and plastic bulb covers to minimize damage from the elements. I also have mine on a timer that lets them run 9 hours from sunset. I'm really happy with the quality and light output, plus they are very energy efficient. Each set comes with 25 bulbs (1 every 2 feet or so) for a total of 50 across the 100 ft. with a couple of spares and you can also buy extra bulbs to replace in this size. Very pleased with the purchase.

I hung about 225' worth of these lights using some stainless steel wire rope strung between my house and a large tree. There were four runs, none of which were cleanly divisible by 50', so I had to cut some of the strands short and wrap electrical tape around the cut ends (I bought three of these, i.e. 6 x 50' strands to make this work). I don't think these strands are intended to be cut like that, but I didn't really have any other option if I wanted it to look good. What I like about these: - Color temperature of these LED bulbs is nice. It's a warm white and not at all harsh which creates a nice relaxing ambiance. - 2' spacing between each bulb looks better than the 3' spacing that I've seen on those larger commercial style strands. - The weight of this style of lights is also much lighter than the commercial style strands, so it was pretty easy to hang up and doesn't sag much. - The brightness of the bulbs is perfect for me. I've got a lot of these lights hung to cover a large space, and I was worried that they would be too bright in aggregate, but they are good. I have the option to use a dimmer I guess, but it's not needed. - The clip built into each bulb socket was perfect for hanging onto the wire rope, no zip ties needed. What I don't like: - A tag on the strands says these are intended for 90 day temporary use. I didn't know that when I purchased these. The title uses lots of words like "outdoor" and "waterproof" so I had the impression that they were permanent. Had I known, I may have opted to buy some more expensive lights that are intended for permanent use. I don't intend to take these down after all that work putting them up, so I hope they survive the elements. Neutral: - Other reviewers said they were frustrated by having to screw in all of the bulbs. Yeah, it's a lot of bulbs to screw in, but I did it while the strand was still wound up from the box so the sockets were very close together and it wasn't really a big deal. - Many of the bulbs seem to have slight variations in color temperature, i.e. some are a slightly warmer or cooler color than the others. It's barely noticeable, but I kind of think it looks all right and adds some character. - One of the bulbs was not lighting up completely, but I used one of the spares that came in the box. One faulty bulb out of 150 bulbs isn't bad. Will I buy these again? I definitely like them a lot right now and have them on almost every night, but I will have to wait and see if they last. Maybe I'll come back and update my review in a year or two -- or maybe I won't. MARCH 2023 UPDATE: Still holding up strong! In the 2021/2022 winter, some squirrels chewed right through the wires in a few places that run near a tree branch, but I just spliced them back together again and sealed it with some electrical tape. I then wrapped that with some black mesh that's supposed to stop cats from chewing through wires, and no issues since. About five bulbs have burned out since I purchased them, but I've still got about 25 extras since I didn't use all of the string lights when I originally hung these up, so replacing them hasn't been a problem for me.

I love these lights. I needed lights for my barn. I put them on a timer. My barn is now beautifully lit every night and early morning. They were easy to hang, the length was great! There was no remote control. But work great with a timer. The light is beautiful and has completely changed the look of my barn.

These lights are great for what we needed them for. We hung them around our pool cage so we could sit and enjoy some night swimming or dinner on the pool deck. We bought the 100ft and definitely needed more or make it all the way around. Pros: nonbreakable bulbs, small and looks great, good spacing in between each bulb, seems very durable Cons: even though it does say it doesn’t come with a dimmer in the description, it would have been nice if it did. The lights could be a brighter setting since it doesn’t come with a dimmer. No remote.

Pretty good set. I like the fact they have side clips so I could attatch then to my existing vable wires without having to undo them and thread the lights through. Only negative is they are not very bright, In the day or at dusk you can't tell if they're on until it gets pretty dark.

I recently bought these G40 LED globe string lights , and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase! I give them a full 5 stars. I installed them across my pool area, and the ambiance they create is absolutely stunning. The warm glow reflects off the water beautifully, making nighttime swims and outdoor gatherings so much more enjoyable. We’ve had some really strong winds recently, and I was concerned they might get ruined but they held up perfectly without any issues! This durability gives me confidence that they can handle outdoor conditions year-round. Beyond just the ambiance and sturdiness, I also appreciate how easy they were to set up. Installation was simple and straightforward. If you’re looking to elevate your outdoor space with a cozy, inviting atmosphere, these G40 LED string lights are a fantastic choice!

These have been on continuously on my deck for a hot minute and I’ve been very pleased with them. It is a covered space so I’m not certain how waterproof they are, but they work great and I haven’t had any issues. Good warm lighting at a good price!

Bright and perfect for what we needed outside. Easy to put up. Quality seems great too. Has blown around in the wind and still lasts well. Makes for walking to shed and other areas outside and night easy without flashlights.
