Review on HBN 100ft Outdoor String Lights - Premium Incandescent Bulbs for Garden, Patio, Porch, Courtyard & More | Dimmable, Waterproof & Warm 2200K White | 102 G40 Bulbs + 2 Extra by Jonah Riggle

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Hang easy. Nice warm light.

Positives:- Splash/light rain resistant IP44 rating. Decent for staying attached to a deck over the summer season.- All of the lightbulbs are incandescent with that warm light given off by a classic bulb. Note that these glass bulbs do get warm, but not hot.- Happily, these are a simple string of lights, not connected to wifi, bluetooth or a network. Plug them in and they turn on. Unplug and they turn off. Sadly, there is no switch.- The string takes standard E12 socket bulbs, so if one burns out it is easy to buy and replace. They also can be switched out with color bulbs around the holidays.- Each socket is 12” from its neighboring bulb and has a clip on one side for easy hanging.- Bulbs are included along with a few extras.- vinyl string is black which should fit most decor, deck or railing.- One side plugs into the wall and has a fuse. The other has recessed connector for attaching on additional strings of lights.Negatives:- Though I like the incandescent bulbs, I don’t like the low heat, electrical load, or glass bulbs. I wish there was an option to purchase LED bulbs.This is a nice set of lights that are easy to install and operate. I highly recommend.Above review is for HBN outdoor incandescent string lights.
