Product Picture Deceiving - I had a set of these so I had an idea of what I was getting but if you haven't seen a set before, just beware. The picture of the product makes the light string appear larger than it is. It is a very tiny wire with very tiny lights. I included a photo of the set in my average sized woman hand.
They arrived on time and work fine. The remote is a neat idea.
I had solar lanterns which are of a nice size, but the solar batteries always needed to be recharged after a a couple days. I put these string lights in & then put the battery box in & you wouldn't even see it. I love the timer & different settings for the pattern of the lights. They are bright & beautiful. I am so happy I thought of this! I then ordered another set for my front lanterns. I am a happy lady now!!!! The box is very well constructed & the remotes made it easy to put on & set the timer, right though the lanterns! So far they have been through 3 snowfalls & freezing temps & they are still going strong.
I absolutley love these lights ! They work great and I received them fast. I was a little nervous after reading a review that said the lights came all tangled and it took a the buyer 2 hours to untangle and they were hard to work with. I am very happy to say that they came very neatly packed and out of all 8 sets I received not one of them were tangled or difficult to work with. As a matter of fact they were just the opposite !!!! I have even completly removed them and arranged them on another decorative craft I was working on and never had any difficulties nor did they ever get tangled at all on me. I love how bright they are and how long the batteries are lasting ! Since I have had them I have used them for at least 6 hours and they are just as bright as the first time I turned them on and showing no signs of needing to change the batteries at all. They have a great variety of patterns and love the fact that I can dim them with all of the settings and not just the steady pattern. Love love love these lights and would highly recommend them to anyone !! I am looking forward to buying more real soon !! Thanks for such a great, durable, and low priced product!!

I love these lights. I use them all the time. I used these in garland around my front door. It is located under a covered porch so it is well protected. Being a longer length each one covered one side of the doorway. Being battery powered there are no cords to worry about. No worries about how close a plug in is or an extension cord. I also used some other lights on wreaths inside the house. Again no ugly cords hanging down the wall. The best thing is it comes with a remote.
I'm actually using these GREAT lights to make (not so original, I know) wine bottle gifts for a few friends this year. I'm not the most creative person on the planet, so I never made a true effort to try making these bright little bottles. Great things happen so unexpectedly and that's just what happened. I stumbled across them accidentally, and beyond thrilled at how sparkly and gorgeous they're turning out! I wrapped one of the bottles in sparkly tissue paper while it was lit from inside. I Do believe I'll turn them on and quickly wrap with the tissue paper just before delivery. Come to think of it, if only I could buy these by the 100's... I'm picturing the entire driveway and sidewalks to my front door on Christmas eve. Hmmm....
I NEED TO ADD TO REVIEW
(December 6, 2018)
In my review above, I quickly wrote it after receiving the lights. I put batteries in to test the lights, and started to order a few more. Time got away from me. Today, I replaced all the batteries and started to make some gifts with them. I had them turned on, (love the little remotes) they were bright, then all at once after getting the holiday bottles just right, one strand dimmed. It seemed to start going through a cycle of all of the options available with the remotes, then...it just stopped lighting. This was a two jar lighted gift with the lights between jars. I took the jar apart, much easier to assemble, changed batteries .... Nothing. I've been searching how to contact the company since its too late to return or exchange. I just want to alert you, in case you're counting on making gifts with the lights. They are certainly beautiful, handy little lights, but ... I'm not sure now about using the 2nd strand that came with the set.

I bought these lights to decorate a child's bedroom. Two strands of 20 feet LED lights was enough. They're basically just wires with small LED lights that you can bend into an approximate shape.
PRO:
- Lights can be dimmed (that was important for me)
- Timer (6-hour off only, I think)
- Multiple flashing options (incl. just on/no flash)
- Each strand runs on 3 AA batteries in what seems to be a weather resistant case (didn't test outside)
- Each strand comes with its own remote, BUT you can use one remote to control BOTH strands! (Save the other remote in case the first breaks or gets lost.)
- Does not get hot; safe for children's room (maybe not babies, but big kids)
CON:
- Still have to see how long 3 AAA batteries last (for these tiny LED lights, I can't imagine they use much energy)
I spent MANY hours choosing what I felt would make the best little lighting for a long time in our new home. The hours spent were more than worth the find! These are exceptionally high quality, professionally looking warm and beautiful lights! The ONLY reason that I did not give this a 5 star is I feel that no one is perfect; everyone can make an improvement upon whatever they are doing! Although I cannot recommend an improvement upon these gorgeous lights, I am sure someone with the tech or lighting experience would perhaps be able to! I would presently purchase these lights again, if I see, after putting them up, that I do not have enough of them, which is VERY likely to happen!!!...
I loved that this set has different settings and that I have the timer option as well. However, the selling point for me was the ability to control with a remote. I needed to replace a set of lights I had in a lantern – I found that by setting the 6 hour timer, it was chewing through batteries and I was changing out 3 AA batteries about every other week. Because the order came with 2 sets, in addition to placing a strand in the lantern, I loosely worked the 2nd set around my photos.
I don’t have this set on all the time (so I really can’t tell you if they go through batteries like the lights I had before... I only have them on for a few hours at a time and not every day) and really like that both sets will work with one remote. I have found that I can use the remote from my couch which is about 10 feet from the lights… that is about the max distance I am able to use the remote. I have found that sometimes at a distance, the remote may only operate just one of the lights and I do have to play a bit.
Overall, I'm happy with these.
These are fantastic! I bought these as a Christmas present for someone who sells products at local farmer's markets, trade shows, etc. and she loved them! I love them so much, I plan on buying a few to add to our wedding decor. They each have their own remote, and the number of setting is amazing. Mostly I love that you can change the brightness level! Having multiple sets with slightly varied levels of brightness will go perfectly with our Boho feel! It also solves the problem of the dreaded Christmas light look at a wedding *shudder* These are surprisingly bright for their size, and now that I see how much they cover I'm less worried about how many I would need. Now if I can just resist the temptation to play with them at my own wedding...
I purchased four pairs (one warm and one cool white) for a photo project. These fairy lights are VERY dainty (fragile) so caution is needed while handling. I didn’t realise that the control box isn’t the only source to change the lights to various settings, but the included wireless remote also gives the user the ability to adjust brightness as well as set a timer. I hope with extra care these will last for quite a few years as I can see myself using these for many projects over time. The price for what you get is truly reasonable.
