I love these lights! They look great and the strand is very long, which can make it difficult if you’re wrapping these around something, but with a lot of patience and a little cursing, I made it work.The remote works well for turning it on and off, but 7 of the 8 “modes” are useless. Modes 1-7 on the remote cycle through a few seconds of what each mode is supposed to be, so they’re all equally obnoxious. I was looking forward to a little fairy light twinkle. I don’t want a twinkle, a strobe, a blink, a fade, a flash, and another faster strobe all cycling through over and over again.Mode 8 is just the lights on, without any blinking, which isn’t awful, so I’ll keep them.It's fragile. Just copper and LED light with a remote but is good for DIY projects. It does blink in a couple of different sequences. Not too bad at all.Enjoying the option of the warmer light. We wrapped these around a long dowling a couple times to weight and keep them in place. Very pretty on our fireplace mantel. Only thing, our TV remote activates these too. I guess it will come in handy if we ever lose the remote these came with.They’re super pretty, nice and long. Most of the settings are useless, but the plain lights when they are just on is great. The other settings don’t stay at the same pacing, like when you turn on the slow pulsing setting it goes slow and works right for like a minute and then it starts speeding up until it’s flashing aggressively.I tried a lot of different string lights trying to find a color I liked, and these are a bit green for my taste. It does have a RF remote which is convenient because you don't need to point the remote at the receiver.See pics for some brightness/color comparisons of "Warm White" string lights.From left to right:Yihong USB Powered Fairy String Lights, 66ft 200LEDs, Warm White-Greenish tintbuways Fairy Lights, Warm White, 66 ft, 200LED-Yellowish tintMinetom USB Fairy String Lgihts with Remote & Power Adapter, 66Ft 200 LED, Warm White- Slight cyan tintTaoTronics 33ft 100 LED String Lights TT-SL036, Warm White- Peach tintTwinkle Star 33ft 100LED Copper Wire, Warm White- Slight teal tintWanted some lights to hang around my dining area. These are what i was looking for. Nice settings for twinkling or just dims in and out. Wish the remote would work without me having to stand directly in front of it 5 ft away. But idc too much.The lights are beautifully let the fact that you can control the brightness of it is really awesome. The settings are super fun to play with depending on what you want your life to do. The only problem that I do have is sometimes my lights synchronized with my smart TV remote control that’s been kind of difficult in trying to separate the two. But other than that I think it’s some really great lights.I had much more expensive fairy lights to use around my bed frame that took me, literally, over an hour to untangle. Then my cat had the NERVE to chew through them! We got these as a cheap alternative and they were installed in five minutes! Don't even think twice, this price is amazing. The remote can be a little finnicky, but works overall and hasn't hindered my thoughts on these lights at all.
