This is a nice affordable patio light. The light is warm and I can see my entire patio at night, however, the quality is not durable; after a couple of months, I noticed a faulty bulb, good thing I had the spare they include. but it happened again and now, I can't find any place (Amazon, eBay, or others) to get a replacement, not even the seller. Also, one of the covers which are plastic is melted, I have 2 of those, and there's no replacement as well. In the end, I have these issues and can't do anything but purchase a new string. Be aware that parts are not easy to find, it might be wise (now I know) to get a common commercial bulb.----Update: The seller contacted me and helped me solve my issue, and now I can use it without a problem.We have these around our fence and house. Love, love, love them!!!! Nice amber glow.I bought these to hang up between two large trees in the backyard over our deck. They work great and look great, however, the squirrels have chosen to cut down 4 or 5 of the lights off of the string that were near the trees. The lights have been up a couple years and I have not had to replace any of the bulbs. They are bright enough for most tasks but not quite bright enough to read by, more for ambiance.I first strung a stainless steel cable between the two trees and the house that these lights hang from so there is no tension on the electrical wire from the weight of the string.perfect for my patio parties.I highly recommend.Loved them makes my carport look fancy.Love these lights! They make our back yardTo start, let's note that the spacing of the bulbs is rather far apart at 3 feet. It seems like a lot, but the bulbs are bright, and the overall look is good. We ran these lights about 10 feet high above a patio area, and then along a 6 foot tall fence around a dining area to illuminate it more.The overall effect is great, and the bulbs are incredibly durable. In accordance with the prophecy written in the instructions, we installed each bulb and tested the strand before hanging to ensure the bulbs were seated correctly. This is important because the PVC waterproofing creates a very tight seal around the bulb, and you may need to give it an extra half-twist to seat the bulb properly.Once we had these tested, we used some old can light outlets with a socket converter to plug them into, and then fastened them to the eave of the house. We hung them about 10 feet high across the yard to some posts on the other side, allowing some swag. The heavy duty commercial cable seems very durable, and will hold the weight well.Because of the spacing of the bulb, we initially thought we may have to run a strand back across the same line in order to get the desired effect, but the lights are bright enough that the spacing is not an issue, especially when used up high. The overall effect is great.We also have these around a 14 foot by 14 foot nook in our yard that contains a dining table and chairs with an umbrella. The effect at night is a well-illuminated space which is bright, but not distracting. In this area, we leveraged the hanging holes and ran screws through them to fasten them to the wall to prevent uneven swagging of the lights, and the effect is very good.Overall, these lights are expensive, but it will be worth it as long as they last longer than the glass bulbs. Even the "durable" glass bulbs were going out regularly and needing expensive replacements constantly. We ended up replacing the strand of glass bulbs every year, while we hope these will last much longer.The durability of these was immediately evident to us, as when we were installing them, we were taking down some glass bulbs. While we accidentally broke several glass bulbs unexpectedly (from tapping lightly on things you would not expect to break them), we did not have any problems with these, even after I accidentally dropped them off the ladder onto the patio below.While we have only had these a week, we feel confident they will last much longer than the others, and it seems like for less than twice the price, you'll save a fortune on replacement sets.If my outlook on these changes, I'll be sure to update the review.Excelente funcionamiento solo que la separación entre foco y foco es muy larga para que se tome en cuentaLights are bright , easy to install and look gorgeous !
