23-11-2024These lights were delivered 12/31, I put them up 1/1, it is now 1/13 and the lights wouldnt stay on. Id turn them on and within 1 minute theyd shut off. It was driving me nuts, so I came to check reviews. MANY people were complaining about battery life, so I decided to change mine -- surely that wasnt it, since they are soo new and I barely turn them on. Yep!! That was the issue. They have been on for 5 minutes now without shutting off. So, these completely suck the life out of batteries, VERY quickly, and even with minimal use. Moral of this review : if youre going to purchase these, make sure to add a ton of AA batteries to your cart as well, as this takes 3 at a time!!!

> 3 dayThese lights ate truly outsoor lights and have a real waterproof battery case. Light color was great too. Unfortunately something was wrong with my remote so I returned them but still wanted to gove a good review for a good quality light.

> 3 dayI love these lights but.. just 2 things that bother me: 1. When they turn on, they START on rotation. No matter what setting I turn them off in, they turn back in rotation. 2. There’s no dim option. They’re not super bright but I’d like them to dim a bit more. Otherwise, very pretty colors, great rotation/motion options.

> 3 dayI have an LG remote and a fire tv remote. various buttons on the remotes change the fairy lights settings. Pretty darn annoying. I had to result in wrapping the battery control box (which has the IR antennae) in foil and only leave only a small opening. That way if I hold the official remote super close to it, I can still change the settings. But now my other remotes do not affect it. Pretty stupid workaround though.

> 3 dayOverall, these are really great. So far, theyve held up pretty well and the colors are pretty. Some of the things that I think could be improved are the color selection. Some of the colors looks almost identical to each other when on the remote theyre a completely different color. Also, just to clarify, with these lights you cannot create your own colors-if you want to do that I would suggest led lights. Other then these two suggestions, I really like these lights.

> 3 dayBought these lights to decorate our tent at a 2 day camping festival. For the first night, they were perfect! One of my top favorite things about our campsite. However, the 2nd night the lights got stuck on this intense/ugly flash with the color red. The remote wouldnt work, taking the batteries out didnt work, they were just stuck and it was not pretty so I had to just take the batteries out and leave them off. Was very disappointing.

> 3 dayCompared to other battery operated lights, these ones are definitely brighter! But, the batteries dont last that long -- I find myself having to change them every 2 weeks. If you plan on using these long term, I would suggest purchasing rechargeable AA batteries as well.

> 3 dayThese are the coolest lights! The app works great and gives so many choices on the types of lightscapes! Adding music is the topping on the cake! I ordered 2 but Ill be ordering more as gifts!

Greater than one weekI bought these for my daughters room, and they are really pretty. However, within a week the purple stopped working and so did most of the blues. When purple or any other non working color is selected the lights automatically shut off. This is especially annoying because my daughter loves the twinkle feature... but it shuts off as soon as it hits a broken color. Update: Company was super responsive and took care of the issue, my little girl is tickled with the new working lights.

> 3 dayIf you’re looking for easy to use DIY leds these are the ones, the modes included are quite interesting from bouncing lights into fast zipping pulses. Not to mention the dimming isn’t bad at all and colors pop perfectly for those nice thirst traps so go crazy!
