Best choice! When in doubt: don't! Just buy them! The contents of the box they're delivered in: very complete, even a bunch of ties to attach them. Also, 2 extra bulbs in the box and the installation guide also shows what bulbs to look for. Super handy! They are very well produced in terms of sturdiness! The lighting is beautiful plus the fact you can choose the strenght (25%, 50%, 75% and 100%) (by remote control - mind you) andmakes them extra attractive. There are also different modes, so also a great addition to create different atmospheres. They were very easy to install and the sun did the rest: when sun was down at 7pm magic in the garden happened and I couldn't be happier with them! Read more
Great lights! They are easy to install and very durable. Since the bulbs are plastic, I don't have to worry about breakage when the wind picks up. They look just like glass once they are up. Make sure to let them charge in the sun for about 8 hours before the first use. We bought two sets and love that we can control the whole yard with just one remote. We stick to the "steady on" mode, but the dimming and pulse options are a nice touch. The only downside is the panels are a bit on the large side. If you are trying to achieve a completely "hidden" look for your hardware, these might be a little tough to tuck away. For the price you can’t beat this yard upgrade. I highly recommend! Read more
Lights are awesome! Got them for over my fire pit area and they look great! Put up a tension cable around and then the lights literally just popped on cable with ease! Lights are the perfect brightness's and the reach of the remote to turn on and off is insane. Like I'm in my house prob 25 yards away from lights and they turn on and off like a light switch pretty insane! Great lights! Read more
I purchased the Brightown 108FT solar string lights for my backyard, and they’ve been a great addition. The lights look beautiful at night and create a warm, cozy atmosphere for outdoor gatherings. Installation was easy, and I like that they’re solar powered, so there’s no need for outlets or extension cords. The solar panel charges well during the day, and the lights turn on automatically at night. They stay lit for several hours without any issues. The string feels durable and has held up well outdoors so far. The length is perfect for wrapping around fences, patios, or pergolas, and the bulbs are evenly spaced. Overall, these lights do exactly what I was looking for. They’re easy to use, reliable, and add a nice decorative touch to any outdoor space. I would definitely buy them again. Read more
The media could not be loaded. Update: Brightown worked with us to resolve a wiring malfunction on our original 58' set. They quickly sent us a replacement strand of solar lights after a phone call and two emails with the photos they requested to confirm the issue. Once the replacement set arrived, it took 48 hours for the solar panel to fully charge in full day January sunlight. I like that they are not overly bright but give our courtyard a soft glow. We set them to 25% before bed and they are still on at 5 am. ****** We purchased these solar lights for our c.1840's farmhouse's courtyard due to limited exterior electrical outlets. We ordered a 108' and a 58' length to attach together. We followed the directions and carefully hung them up on a clear sunny morning and then waited for them to light at dusk. We liked that they included zip ties to attach strands together at their end loops. (One box contained zip ties of which none were functional, which was odd, but still an "extra.") We like that each box included quality cup holder screws that worked well. You can hardly tell where the connection point is between the two strands. We were disappointed when neither strand lit the first evening after we hung them early to get full day sun. Yes, we pushed the button so it turned blue before hanging the solar panels. Yes, we got fresh AAA batteries for the remote controls. Yes, both panels get full sun without any shade. On the second day we set up our 8' ladder for a second time so we could tediously check that the bulbs and the panel connections were tight. After 48 hours, the 108' finally strand lit up, but the 58' strand did never did. We were pretty frustrated. We've purchased a solar barn light and solar gate lamps as well as motion detector solar lights for our chicken coop, all worked the first evening without issue. Brightown has a number to call, (not available on weekends), and I will try calling on Monday. I gave 2 stars for what looked like high quality details in everything that was included in the solar lighting kits. But I subtracted 3 stars for two days on a ladder trying to figure out why solar lights refuse to light after 48 hours on full sun days. I docked one star for the hassle of a strand needing to be replaced. It was worth it, thought it was frustrating. We are happy with our lights! Read more
I love these! Easy to install and I kept them up after Christmas! Fairly bright for solar lights. Read more
