I followed all of the instructions which are VERY time consuming and hung my lights. A few hooks came unstuck immediately, particularly at corners as others reviewers have noted, so I added extra hooks. All seemed well until a few hours later when it started to rain, and the lights started falling down. Mind you, the lights are well under my porch overhang so weren't actually getting rained on. The mere introduction of moisture into the atmosphere was enough to do in the hooks. Outdoor use my foot! I've used Command products extensively inside my home, but I have to wonder, was this product tested at all?

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love the 3M Command brand products. We needed a good way to hang our outdoor lights under the patio. So we got the Command light clips. The patio structure is made of steel so we cleaned each spot where we wanted a clip with alcohol as suggested in the instructions and they work just fantastic. They are clear so they are basically invisible. against the steel. We are very happy with their performance!

Used these to hang barrio-style lights from the ceiling of my fascia-covered deck. They held the lights really well on the straight sections. However, when turning corners, the hooks didn't hold. I had to add cup hooks to the corners to ensure that the Command hooks would receive less tension on the corners. My feeling was that they work well unless being strained in any way. Nevertheless, I do think they are great problem solvers for outdoor decorating.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just recently, we had an opportunity to try out the Command Outdoor Light Clips. They seem to be well-made and capable of supporting strings of electric lights, such as the accent light strings that we use. One of the best aspects of these is the fact that their removal leaves no damage to the mounting surface. Also, they are re-usable, since you can simply purchase refills of new adhesive strips. The 3M company provided me a free sample of this product to evaluate.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These clips worked good, but can't take too much pressure. I used them to hold the extension cord. They would probably work really well to hold something like christmas lights. They were attached to the aluminum frame on my house. They held fine, unless I pulled on them or added extra weight. Again, something lightweight like christmas lights would be fine. The places where there was more weight I used multiple clips for those areas and then they worked fine. They seem to hold up in Florida weather...lots of sun and lots of rain.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these clips as a free sample from 3m. They are great and very easy to use. The plastic is thick so it doesnt break easily. The hook can be a little stiff so larger cords can be a little tough to slide in.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m planning on using these for Christmas lights. They seem to be holding up good so far but weren’t really that sticky when I took them out of the package initially. I’ve had great luck with command hooks in the past but we will see!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our college-age kids used command strips and loved them so after researching whether we could use them to hang lightweight string lights in a new room, we bought these. Unfortunately, the command strips came off and peeled off a spot of the new paint when the string lights fell down. We used four clips per string of mini-lights. What a disappointment! I would NOT recommend these clips to hang string lights (mini-lights).

Don’t bother with these. I followed the directions - wiped down with alcohol, held for 30 seconds and waited several hours before attempting to hang my lights. As soon as I got the strand connected to one of the clips it immediately fell off the porch shattering my lights for the SECOND time. That’s right, I’ve wasted money on two boxes of lights now - both resulting in shattered bulbs because these clips don’t hold up. Don’t be like me and give it a chance, let alone two.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So it’s getting cooler outside and it’s my favorite time of the year. I now go outside in the mornings to sit and drink my morning coffee at the table. It’s not uncommon to have the deer run through my yard and head over to my dads property and into the woods. I just recently thought about putting up some outdoor lights but didn’t t want to leave holes in the house. I purchased the command set made specifically for outdoor lights and they are holding up well and it was so easy to use them. No pounding holes with a bulky hammer. Once I get the lights up I will post a picture to this review page. Love Command products. As a renter I can’t do things other home owners can so Command really helps me out with my decorating needs!
