Solar String Lights Outdoor, 100 LED 17M/55Ft Solar Powered Fairy Lights 8 Modes IP65 Waterproof Indoor Outdoor Festival Globe Lights for Garden, Patio, Yard, Christmas, Tree Decoration (Warm White)

These are the best solar garden lights we've had so far, after many failures. I especially waited for a few months to write this review, but now, having owned them for 3 months I can say they are rain proof, they have excellent battery life (5-6 hours every night on flashing mode) and they make our garden look much cosier. One thing to mention, they are about the size of a hazelnut (we thought they would be bigger when first ordered them) and they are not bright enough to actually light up the surroundings, but they are perfect for creating a cosy ambiance.

these look nice and for almost a year they worked (not very bright however), well maybe had them on 10-15 times i guess. about a week ago, switched them on, nothing, nada - zip. all good i thought i will open these up and replace the battery, it can happen (altho i have other solar lights working for years, no exaggeration).first big issue. for some weird reason, this company has decided to not put a normal spring based battery holder (the one you see a million times in products like this. Nope, this company has decided to spot weld the connections, yep you read that right, spot weld. Why? well it would mean you dont get the odd dodgy connection in shipping when a battery moves in the housing, but replacing a battery when the original fails, well good luck. what should be a 5 minute job now turned into a possibly huge one. soldering in a new battery housing using the spot welded connectors. But first i decided to just try it with a new battery. wow am i glad i did. Nothing. even holding in a new fresh battery, and covering the solar panel, nothing. I honestly have no idea whats broken, the panel maybe, the small logic board, could be one of a dozen things. i finally just removed the solar box and put on a USB connector and now have half of the lights (depending what way you wire 50 of the bulbs light) but way way brighter. (so thats a positive i guess). one thing the bulbs do work, all of them, so they are well waterproofed.so if you are looking for a short term set of lights, with no plan of swapping out battery this is the lights for you, maybe i was just unlucky. One final thing that may be of use to you as i do this with 90% of the solar products i buy is to swap out the standard battery for a better one. For example the default battery here (ignore the spot welding) is 800mah, you can get amazon or ikea ones 3 times that size (think of mah as the size of the tank of energy you have). that will make your lights run longer at least if you get the sun on the panel. just make sure you are swapping the right types nimh for nimh.

Each light is probably the size of a cherry tomato, I knew this before I bought them so I was OK with that.There are 100 lights on it so they do go a long way. They look really pretty even throughout the day just hanging on the fence.In the evening they look lovely, giving off a soft, warm glow that lasts all through the night until dawn.I'm happy with my purchase and I'm considering buying more for another fence.I gave the 'remote' 1 star, because I didn't receive 1 - I'm not quiet sure I was meant to. The solar stick does have a button to change settings though.

These look really good and great value for money. I love the fact they have loads of functions. I change the function each evening. The light lasts so long too, I looked out of my window at 4am and they were still going. Delighted 🙂

Really happy with these lights. Perfect to drape across my garden fence. They give off a lovely warm light. I only had them up for a few hours before it got dark and didn’t expect them to work on the first night. But as soon as it got dark they lit up and stayed lit for hours.
