INST Solar Powered Copper Wire String Lights

I'll admit -- at first I thought solar lights wouldn't work due to some past experiences I've had with solar lights not living up to their expections. I am so glad I was proven wrong. The set of over 200 LED lights spans 66 ft so it's really long. They look just like all the other twinkle LED lights on a wire but with the added bonus of them being solar -- running off natural light -- unlike battery or plug in lights. These are great for outdoor areas where you don't have a plug nearby and if you are like me when you constantly never have enough batteries and get tired of replacing them.

There are 8 light modes that are easy to set. To use, simply charge the solar panel for 6 hours and turn on. The light will turn on automatically at dusk or when it get dark enough. It will turn off automatically when it runs out of charge or gets light enough out.

If you get stuck, the instructions that come with the set are easy to read and follow.

I love lighting outside and with LED sets like this, outdoor lighting is a breeze. These lights are great.

Qedertek Battery Operated Starry String Lights

It's the time of year where I absolutely love to hang lights from every window of my house -- the only real issue is of course plugs! With these timer-based battery operated starry lights, I don't have that issue.

These lights are easy to hang on Christmas trees, in windows, on mantels, around poles -- pretty much anything you want to do and add extra light. These copper wires are flexible and can easily mold to any shape you need or want. The lights are very easy to operate, simply put 3 AA batteries (not included) and turn on. What I really liked is the ability to  use a timer - you can set lights on for 6 hours and auto off for 18 hours. 

As you can see in the video, you have a number of settings on these lights, you can use the button on the battery pack or the remote to set the lights how you want them -- fast, slow, on, off, fade and much more.

Overall, I really love these lights. They are already brightening up the inside of the house. These lights say they are waterproof but we are using them inside our house because I'm afraid to put them outside -- they are so pretty. The lights are 33 ft long so they are plenty long for all your decorating needs.

SENQIAO: Starry Lights

I have had the chance to review tons of different LED lights which as the holidays get closer are so convenient to have on hand. These SENQIAO lights are fantastic! We are using them to wrap around the beams on our back porch for Christmas.

These lights are great for a few reasons:
1. Remote control to turn on and off (ready to go out of the box!)
2. They can be dimmed or made brighter depending on what you need
3. No heavy green or white wires to wrap around, they are on a copper wire so the wires practically disappear when you turn the lights on
4. There is 33 feet of lighting wire with 100 LED lights so this is really long! You can't connect string to string like regular lights but for my needs these worked great.

I mentioned above you can make the lights dim or brighter based on your desire, but you can also have the lights on all the time, flash, strobe or fade these in and out. I also like that the LEDs are energy efficient. I really liked these lights. I don't think I'll take them down after Christmas.
