20 m outdoor festoon lights, 25 G40 bulbs plus 2 spares, remote

About this product

The string is 20 m (65 ft) long with 25 G40 LED bulbs in shatterproof plastic, plus 2 spare bulbs. It plugs into the mains through a standard low voltage plug that outputs 24V, and the listing says more strings can be connected. The colour is warm white at 2700 K and the rating is IP44.

The remote gives 4 brightness levels, a 3 hour or 5 hour auto timer and three modes: breath, flash and lighting. The box contains the string, the bulbs and the remote. The sockets are described as sealed and waterproof, and the listing gives the string for outdoor use.

What to use it for

Twenty-five bulbs over 20 m leave a wide gap between lights, which suits a balcony rail, a gazebo or a pergola beam.

Care and safety

Unplug the string before replacing a bulb and keep the spare bulbs with the remote. Wipe the bulbs with a damp cloth.
