After a year- not so happy

I purchased three strings for my backyard about eleven months ago. All three lights began bahving irregularly- flashing different colors uncontrollably.

Pros
  • ‎Acrylic
Cons
  • The string lights may require frequent bulb replacements

Good light for outdoor.

Item as described. Fast and easy setup. Lights seem to be very sturdy with heavy cord. Integration with Google home easy.

Pros
  • The string was used when I opened the box. The app isn't easy to use.
Cons
  • I'm very computer literate and use my phone all the time. These did not connect.

LOVE THEM! in my review

Amazing product. Works well with Google home and alexa. We use these as a year around decoration. For Halloween we set them to orange and red, election red white and blue and Christmas time green and red. We have them set on a timer so its a set and forget type of item which I LOVE! Not to mention its a thick plastic bulb so they don't break with the wind!

Pros
  • Low Voltage & Safety
Cons
  • The acrylic bulbs may discolor over time

The lights seem pretty durable

The lights were somewhat challenging to get synced with the app. I called the company snd the tech gave me a never app that worked much better. Still not much range so the lights need to be fairly close to your WIFI.

Pros
  • ‎Dimmable and Extendable, RGBW Color Changing, Shatterproof Waterproof Antifreeze, App/Voice Control, 18 Acrylic Bulbs
Cons
  • The app control may not be intuitive for all users

not for outdoor use

these lights are the second attempt from this seller. Though they are very responsive when you contact them the product has many issues. Yes you can string them together but each will have to be programed as an individual string. They are not weather resistant and will experience issues in the rain. The control box is not removable as other strings when you put them together and that is the cause for the inability to program them once. They operate off of wifi2.4. mostly obsolete and requires…

Pros
  • ‎432 inches
Cons
  • The app control may be confusing for those who are not technologically savvy

Heavy Duty on my review.

I am unsure how the app works.we currently are in an apartment with its own wifi and a Mac address is needed for EVERYTHING connected to it. I couldn't find a Mac address yet, for that reason it gets 4 stars. I give it 5 stars without the app it gives you enough options for everyday and holidays

Pros
  • These lights are great. The WiFi is excellent and color options make it fun.
Cons
  • The app control may not be user-friendly for everyone

Lacks color options

Product is great except for one thing: not enough custom settings for colors. I’ve had them strung around my patio outside since getting them, and they’ve done well with all the weather. But I really wish I could create combine custom lighting themes with different flashing patterns. It includes some holiday color options that I’ll likely never use.

Pros
  • ‎Outdoor
Cons
  • The app control may require an account registration, which may not appeal to all users

Hard to download the control in the app

Not as bright as the harbor Freight string lights hat i was replacing with these, still having been able to download the control to the app to control by Bluetooth. Have tried several times almost gets done and says "Device has timed out", had about week.

Pros
  • Took a few minutes to setup with the app but zero issues and works great with Alexa!
Cons
  • The size of the bulbs may not be suitable for all types of outdoor spaces

Great for one year, then stopped working. :(

These were extremely easy to install, and very easy to set up. I loved them to so much because I could change the color of the lights for every holiday. But I went to go turn them on the other night, and they wouldn't work. They are under a coveted porch, so I'm not sure what happened to them. 😔

Pros
  • ‎HBN
Cons
  • The lights may not be bright enough

I really don't like these

I wanted to use them to light a gazebo. For that application, you need to be able to walk up and push a button and have the lights come on in some reasonable configuration - i.e. normal white.Instead, you walk up, push the button and it comes on in some colorful configuration that you can cycle to everything EXCEPT normal white. Lose power? Start over. To use the App to set the color, you have to handicap your router so that it only operates in 2.4Ghz mode. I never actually did this because…

Pros
  • ‎RGBW Color Changing
Cons
  • The string lights may attract insects

Customer service exceptional

We ordered two strands and they look great! I love all the options via the app that we can use. Customer service was very helpful and pleasant to assist us in setting up the lights. Can’t say enough about them.

Pros
  • ‎7.5 watts
Cons
  • The string lights may not provide enough lighting for safety purposes

Works great after replacement

Initial product had some issues with syncing as only half of the strand would sync. After contacting the company I found out it was a known product defect and was replaced within 2 days. Customer service rep Dianna was exception. Product works perfectly

Pros
  • Smart Voice Control
Cons
  • The string lights may not be durable enough to withstand frequent use

Work great! good for me

Heavy duty cord so you need plan how to attach it to wherever you’re hanging them. They do have holes for a nail or screw so we screwed them into our patio eaves. The instructions for setting them up in the app that was included with the lights are not written by an English speaker though, so look them up on Ebay. Once it is all set up, they’re a breeze to use. Lots of color choices. We can set them up to match our color changing pool light we got on Ebay too. U

Pros
  • ‎General Purpose (Outdoor and Indoor); Please Note: The Lights Only Works with 2.4GHz Wifi
Cons
  • The app control may require frequent updates to function properly

Love the lights. Almost perfect

Lights are great. Love the ability to adjust the colors and display with an app. My only complaint is that the gap between each bulb is too big. I would have liked there to be either less overall length and the lights closer or more lights. But. it is only a minor thing. Overall pretty good product so far.

Pros
  • ‎CP-C17
Cons
  • The app control may not be compatible with older smartphones or operating systems
