interesting lights
I didn’t expect it to be a battery pack lights but It’s pretty easy to get used to Once you hang them up and You can throw them anywhere without an outlet I haven’t had a problem with tangling yet

Hmm, not all of these are all alike
I got a set of a different brand which are cool white snowflakes. I liked them so much I decided to buy a set of multicolor. I assumed all these sets are mostly alike. However not so. This set has only 3 modes, ON, OFF, and Flashing. Other snowflake lights have the 8 modes and often come with remote. I like calm modes like slow twinkle and “breathing” or slow blink.The flashing is stressful and annoying, not a nice twinkle, more like a strobe light. So I’ll be using ON. The colors there are only 4, exactly as pictured. Red, warm white/yellow, green, blue. That’s it. No purple, or violet. The color scheme is a bit limited but I’m not sure it’s noticeable. That’s not really the problem.The snowflakes fall off very easily. And there’s no easy way to make them stay on. I’m tempted to use glue but I’m afraid to ruin them. Maybe I have to use a little puddle of glue and use a toothpick for a tiny amount. This is probably the biggest minus. Once you get them, you might have a crafting project on your hands too.Because they’re battery powered they seem to “fade” after a few days. They were dim to begin with. But they got even more dim after the first day. I noticed it in another set of lights so I put new batteries in both of them and when the batteries are new, they are brighter. After a day, they fade. This is a manufacturing issue. Nothing is wrong with them. They’re reacting to the normal falling of the voltage of the alkaline batteries. The manufacturer didn’t think to add any voltage regulator or electronics to keep the voltage steady.There are positives. The wiring is durable and well made. It runs on three AA batteries and has no warning about not using rechargeable. I assume that’s because it doesn’t have a slow fade mode, which is basically a dimmer. I had the cool whites running in steady ON mode for nearly a week and they were going strong. I’ll have to test and see these.The battery panel is a bit tricky to open, it slides “toward” the switch. Hold it like a pack of cards, put your thumb on the panel, point your nail toward the switch and wire and push toward the wire/switch, like you’re going to fan out a deck of cards. Gently. If you do it in other ways, it can pinch your fingers, so use care.In the end, I decided to return these. The breaking point was that, since there’s no voltage control electronics the batteries are drained quickly. I used both alkaline and NiMH in separate tests and both were drained equally quickly. When they become dim, they’re almost unnoticeable, except in total darkness. Replacing the batteries every two days is just a bit much to ask. It’s OK for party supplies, but not OK for xmas lights. The strings of lights with dimmer/timer/8modes have enough electronics that I can make them last all week. That’s more reasonable.

Did NOT Like
I was disappointed in these lights! They were a yellowish color and not at all bright. I had them on my mantle but ended up throwing them away.

El producto es tal como se describe en Amazon. La serie la instalé en una ventana.

I think it’s really frustrating and very disappointing when products do not live up to expectations. One bulb is dead. I’ve had no choice but to order 3 more pieces because I underestimated the length required for my tree and I am keeping fingers crossed that I am not going to find any more dead bulbs. SELLER – kindly check the quality before you send our!!

I wouldn’t buy this. It has stopped working even with brand new batteries ☹️
