These lights are amazing. I love them they light up my mirror.this is a whole lot smaller than I was expecting.... and the color is more blue than purple...... not all that happy with the purchaseThe string of lights was delivered on time, worked perfectly, and was at a good price. Great transactionI ordered 2 red & 1 purple. Hung the first red & batteries went dead almost immediately. Installed brand new alkaline batteries, they still went dead after only a few hours. The purple isn’t really purple, it’s more of a blue. I haven’t opened the other red strand. Will probably return all 3. Definitely the first red one.I'm happy that they are bright and easy to bend into shape. But they came in basic colors and I wanted the unicorn dancing fairy colors shown in the picture.I used this to make a Christmas present. The lights were a good brightness, and easy to bend to the shape I wanted. I folded it over on itself to double the light density, and that worked well enough.I've purchased a lot of string lights for various projects, and I was particularly pleased with these. They are very bright especially compared to those that are battery-powered. They plug into a USB port; I plugged them into a 110 volt adapter plugged into the wall. I've had them on for a long time with no degradation of brightness or quality. Very satisfied; would certainly purchase this type / brand again.
