Review on 💡 Bulbrite String Lights 14 ft: Brighten Your Outdoor Space with Incandescent, 10-Socket String Light Kit (Pack of 1) by Lamont Manjrekar

These lights have the perfect, warm glow for an evening meal out on the patio. The cabling is sturdy and thick, with connection points at each bulb, although we used Command Outdoor Light Clips, Clear, 16-Clips (17017CLR-AWES) instead of nails to suspend them. One strand was enough to illuminate our 144 sf patio, but multiple lights shouldn't be overpowering. The light is pleasant, but not glaring, and evenly distributed thanks to the placement of the bulbs.Be forewarned that the bulbs don't seem to take kindly to the shipping process. Three of ours were already out by the time they arrived, so we ordered a box of replacements: Bulbrite 701111 - 11S14C - 11 Watt S14 Clear Sign Bulb - 20 Pack . Once installed, the bulbs seem to hold up great. If you have a Wink hub or other Z-wave automation device, I recommend this outdoor switch for controlling the lights: GE Z-Wave Wireless Lighting Control Outdoor Module, Plug-In, Black, 12720 These were exactly what we envisioned for creating an inviting, festive atmosphere on our back patio. I highly recommend them.
