Review on 🌟 48FT LED Outdoor String Lights by Banord – Dimmable Edison Vintage Plastic Bulbs, Commercial Grade Weatherproof Strand with UL Listing – Heavy-Duty CafΓ© Lights for Patio, Porch, and Market by Kayla Schmidt

Just great in outdoor lighting

I have always said that China can produce any level of product you want. All too often, however, they produce products that are cheaply made and difficult to maintain. This does not apply to these Banord lights! Every aspect of these lights is well thought out and implemented. Fixings are made of quality materials, from thick cord to waterproof gaskets on the ends of the plug and on each bulb. Most importantly, Edison-style bulbs are the first LEDs I've seen that are virtually indistinguishable from incandescent bulbs. The long filaments mimic the filaments of a traditional incandescent bulb giving a very bright yet warm light. The string lights are well packaged in two 48ft spools, 96ft total, and the bulbs are packaged in two foam boxes of 15 each. Each pack of fairy lights (two fairy lights in each set) includes three extra bulbs for a total of six extra lights. Banord also sells a set of extra bulbs and a very nice dimmer/on/off remote control which I can tell you is great but I will review that separately. I am very satisfied with this light set and have already bought several other sets and recommended this product to friends. Update: The light strings are quite strong, but try not to pull them too tight for a long distance without support. I managed to break one strand and had to restore it. Although it was entirely my fault for pulling too hard. If you're draping the lights without support, you should also consider a protective cover to keep the connectors connected. Revain has something here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07C2M83Y4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Update: I ended up using 1/8 steel wire rope for all spans of 25 feet or more. This is pretty easy and then just tie the zip tie to the cable. Even if you connect the cable tie end caps together, they will not break. Wrap a zip tie around the top of each connector, connect them together, then thread the zip tie between the other two zip ties and tighten.
