Honeywell 36' LED Color Changing String Light Set With Remote Control

I gave this a 4 star rating - for personal reasons - the lights are great! I had bout 3 strands for my back porch a few years ago and strung them on wire. 2 sets are still working! and I love them but need to replace the 3rd set. Bought them at Sam's originally so we went there and bought the new set. The reason for the 4 is we like the original sets better - all 3 strung together 1 remote is all that was needed to turn them all on at the same time. Now we need 2 but that is ok however the blubs are not the same and do not glow as pretty as the original. However they do plug in to the old sets just do not go on at the same time but do go on with the remote. Besides the glow not as bright and pretty the remote does not have the same features - original had a 2 hour and 4 hour timer - I used that all the time!, it had a feature where you could put in a color and all bulbs were that color then you could hit second color and every other bulb would be that color - as we cheer for teams we would display their team colors (i.e.. blue and white - Penn State), the other feature that I love the most was called Modes - each push of the button revealed a season or holiday - Fall was different colors of yellow and orange, St Patrick's day different shades of green, Patriotic holidays red, white, blue, Easter different shades of pastel colors and there were a few others. We still use those and match as best we can with the new set. I do not care for flashing lights and the features that are available go to fast for the most part - we love the lights being up and if all we ever had was the new set they would be great! But compared to our original set they fall short of what we are used to. If I was buying them new for the first time I would be very happy with them and recommend them to anyone. But if you are trying to match them up with another set you bought before be prepared to see some differences.

This is the worst light string I have ever seen quality wise the plastic is so thin that an eggshell would it be an improvement do not purchase. It’s a waste your time and money can’t believe Sam’s would even sell this very very disappointing.
