Svater Outdoor String Lights LED 96FT/29m, S14 2Pack 48FT Festoon Lights Mains Powered with 30+2 2W Plastic Bulbs, IP65 Waterproof Garden String Lights for Patio Party Wedding, 2700K Warm White

Initially, £59.99 seemed to be quite costly for two of these string light sets. However they were cheaper than the apparently similar BRTLX brand, also available through Amazon. My only disappointment was that the Svater brand was not available in singles, as I expected to use 3 x 15m sections. The lights arrived as scheduled (Amazon Prime). There were two broken lamps in one of the boxes, but Svater do include 2 spare bulbs per pack of 2 string lights. Hopefully, Svater will send two bulb replacements, in keeping with their SATISFACTION GUARANTEED WARRANTY. The cable and mouldings are all very solid. The "T" shaped connections are in hard rubber and each hanging hole is 5.5mm diameter. It may not be wise to rely on mounting with many of the holes as the rubber material will probably degrade over time. They were easy enough to hang in the trees. We tie-wrapped them on, mostly direct to the cable. The lamp holders are made of a moderately hard rubber and seal well to the bulbs. The lamp bases are E27 so any commonly compatible bulb could be fitted. The bulbs themselves are 2W LED and give out about 150 lumens. This is double the brightness of the other similar string lights . The end result is really good. We fitted a length of 45m (3 x 15m) along a church graveyard path that was pitch black before. Now it is lit better than the local street lights and on only a 90W power budget. The bulbs are of quite thin glass but we didn't break any when screwing them in. UK and EU power cords are provided for each string light set. i.e. 4 power cords per box. The power cords are about 50cm long. I cut the EU plug off one and crimped/heatshrinked it to a long 2 core power extension cable. One reviewer had complained that the power connection had come apart under tension. Actually, the connections are quite well designed to be weatherproof. They are all supplied with threaded plastic screw caps. The female caps are of hard plastic but the male plugs are of a medium hard rubber. This is so that a flexible seal is created in the mated plug and socket. They do fit very well. However, based on that latter review, I put tie-wraps at each end of the strain reliefs with a longer tie-wrap in between so that all cable tension was taken in the tie-wraps, not on the actual joint. I could imagine that if the joint was under a lot of tension, the rubber thread could get pulled out. I noticed that 1 reviewer had complained about there being no earth connection. Of course not. It's all double insulated (just like garden electrical power tools) so an earth connection would be pointless. The warranty is only 1 year but I thought that for the combination of features, particularly the 2W LED lamps, these were worth a punt. I really hope they last a long time. My final disappointment was this morning when I saw that Amazon had reduced the price to £47.99. That makes these lights a bargain.

My lockdown project of an outdoor bar/entertainment area has been calling out for better lighting. I've used various solar options to differing degrees of success, I was inspired by a Facebook post and went on the hunt for these. My covered area is approx 4.4 x 4.6M, with a little maths I thought the 96 ft should work out ok, it's effectively 6 X 5 metre lengths of lighting, fifteen bulbs x 2 with spacing of about 1M between bulbs. I purchased a set of black hooks at the same time. Delivery was spot on as always and I set about discovering what was in the box. This comes as 2 complete sets, two sets of 15 bulbs plus 2 spare, two 15M rubber coated cables with e27 sockets which have some flexibility, two UK plugs with approx 30cm of cable fitted with the connector at the other end. I did away with one of those and daisy chained the cables together to form one long festoon type cable. Once hooks were in place I hung the cable, it comes with molded eyes at every fitting, the bulbs screw in with no issues and I plugged the whole thing in and everything worked. At first during daylight I thought they would be quite dim but at night you can see they are exactly what I was after, they are bright enough that my whole area is lit, it's great while I'm working on the bar, it may be too much for a party but that said I think it's brilliant. I cannot fault the set, while I thought they were a bit expensive ultimately I have what I need and they work very well. Be mindful that there is no switch on the lights and the plug lead is very short, I have since ordered a 3m cable to avoid having to put a socket in the roof rafters. As for weatherproofing they're under cover but they do seem to be well made and fully weatherproof they are IP65 rated so should be more than adequate. One other note is that they do not act like Christmas lights, I mean that if one bulb is out the rest do not go out, and that regardless of how many bulbs are in they do not dim or get brighter, this is the same for when connecting sets together, the instructions say you could have forty sets together, I don't know if that's a good idea though.

Deze verlichting is sfeervol voor de tuin geeft goed licht ! veel complimenten gekregen dat de tuin warm verlicht is.

Correspond exactement à mes souhaits de qualité, d'éclairage chaud et de facilité d'installation avec un bon accrochage. Les ampoules à vis ne sont pas fragiles et aisément démontables. La qualité semble bien meilleure qu'un achat effectué précédemment chez un autre fournisseur

Sorprendida gratamente Aguantan viento y lluvia Buen cableado estanco y buena luz ademas de quedar muy agradable Compre un enchufe inalambrico con mando y las controlo genial ya sea programada o a distancia

Einfache Montage, Verlängerung mit weiterer Lichterkette einfach mit schraubbarer Überwurfmutter machbar. Schönes Licht für eine Gartenparty.

Ne ho acquistate davvero tante in questi anni, ma questo prodotto è veramente un top di gamma ottima le plastiche che non si deteriorano all’intemperie e non si scoloriscono al sole e ottima anche la lampadina che in quattro anni non se nè fulminata nemmeno una.
