Review on Enhanced Outdoor String Lights by Novtech by Monica Nixon

Purchased to replace burned out bulbs in our Novtech string lights purchased last September. Ordered 12 as we had 11 blown bulbs after a hail storm. Replaced these 11 and none worked. It burned out many times and immediately left black marks on the inside of the bulb. The original, undamaged light bulbs from last autumn work fine, but each of the 11 new light bulbs is dark. One would think that replacing the same brand of bulb in a chain of the right brand would be compatible, but no, and at over $3 a bulb, being zero for twelve hurts a lot. After a thorough search, this seller sells two nearly identical light bulbs. for different light chains. The listings are identical and I did not purchase the BULB THAT WAS INCLUDED IN THE LINK ON THE STRING PURCHASED PAGE. Please do your research before you go about $40 down the drain. I think that's how you make a profit. Point out the wrong lightbulb and let people buy twice if the first one burns out.
