Dazzle Bright 2 Pack Red White and Blue Solar String Lights, 400LED 132FT Christmas Independence Day String Lights, Solar Powered with 8 Modes Waterproof for Outdoor Party Decorations

UPDATE: May 2024 - the lights we had around the pool I took down for winter when we put the pool away. I moved them to a trellis where they continued to illuminate through the winter and are still lighting now in the spring. The second set was on a small tree and that one stopped working over the winter. Not sure why. Overall I’m still happy for the price.Orig. review (2023): These are not as bright as lights you’d plug in but they’re great if you just want a little accent lighting as decoration. They’re not made for complete illumination of an area. We put them around our pool. The lights in the distance on the fence are hard wired low voltage and are definitely brighter. First 3 pics were taken with iPhone night mode. 4th pic I took using live view and I think it shows a better depiction of the dimmer glow of the solar lights. The night mode actually makes them look brighter. For the price and the fact I could place them myself without needing extension cords or an electrician is definitely a plus!

The media could not be loaded. I went with the yellow light more for romance/comfort on our big tree. It looks so magical! I love them, they are low light but I also added larger bulbs to hang in the tree to brighten it up. Cost is great for the quality, they feel durable so we will see how long they hold up. Currently this is 4 strands I ordered two more, to get to a few more larger branches.

I love these. I love being able to have lights up without worrying about finding a place to plug them in. Definitely worth it. And they are surprisingly bright for solar lights. They don't last all night but they usually last til midnight or later.

I got these to use as Christmas/holiday lights for the parking lot of our business. Easy to use - only tricky part is figuring out the best place to put the solar panels. You need them to get as much sun (or at least light) for as long as possible. All day, if you can find the right place to put the panels!Where i originally put them it was only getting sun for a few hours. I finally figured out that I could attach the panels to the top branches of a small tree. Once i did that, that strings lit up nicely.With a full day containing a good amount of sun, these lights stay on almost until dawn. How long they stay on will vary depending on how much sun & light they receive.Recently we've had a lot of overcast days with lots of rain and no sun. Some of my other solar lights did not turn on at all, or only worked for a couple hours. But these 2 sets of solar string lights turned on for 4 hours or more before dimming. That's pretty good for several consecutive totally sunless days.I will say they are not as bright as I would prefer. But you cant expect these lower cost solar lights to be as bright as electric lights. Maybe the higher end ones are better, I dont know. Still, these are bright enough you can see them easily from across the street maybe 50 feet away!The cool white color is very pretty and works well for the winter holidays. They give off a bit of a blue-ish white color. I like the fact that these have multiple different modes to choose from. That's a lot better than just steady or flashing.If you live in a region that gets very little sunlight throughout the winter, dont expect too much from these solar lights. Maybe 4 or 5 hours per night. You might be better off with electric or battery lights. Or maybe there are some more expensive solar lights that will work even with very little sun.But for us, these lights work nicely and i'll no doubt use them throughout the year just to give our property a bit of an elegant touch!

The lights will only work for a few minutes, shuts off then I push the power button on again & will work for a few more minutes?? Maybe I got a faulty set? I haven't tried the second set yet.

I've had these for a couple of weeks now. They're the first solar lights I've had that have performed really well. One of the wires had a little tear on the outside/green part, so the wires are a little exposed, but they still work. They last from sunset to sunrise, if I get a full day of sun that day. I live in New Mexico, so we get a lot of sun. Even on a cloudy/rainy day, the lights came on for a good 6-8 hours.

I love these lights and have purchased numerous strings of them. They are highly functional, easy to use and a couple strings have lasted two years with constant nocturnal use. I use them the year round as a yard decoration around a fence, around a number of small trees and around the trunks of large trees. It makes for a magical appearance on dark summer or wintery nights. I highly recommend these lights.

Possibly due to them being solar and not being strong enough, that’s why hey aren’t very bright. Still, good enough and look pretty over the Xmas holidays wrapped around our poles outside
