200 Light 8 mm Mini Globe Multi Color LED Lights with Wireless Smart Control

I like the lights bright at night and very colorful.

I bought five boxes of these lights (three warm white, two multi-colored). One box of the warm white lights lit up very dimly and just randomly flickered. The second box (multi color) did not light up at all. The third box (warm white) I was unable to change through any of the settings. Boxes 4 and 5 worked great, but given the first three I am questioning the quality and longevity of the “good” light sets and will be returning all five. Like other reviewers, I was unable to connect multiple strands of lights despite the box saying that you can “Connect up to 3 sets of lights!” (see photo). Total dud of a product, not recommended at all.

Unique globe shape with some nice features and LED cool operation, but the app is lacking. This light set is somewhat unique in many respects. The first thing you notice is the unique small globe shape. That’s really nice and makes this set stand out! It is not little LED “plugs” nor is it the old small candle shape. This shape is just nice. The colors pop well, and you can even dim or brighten the look if you use the phone app. The second thing you’ll notice is that the set is powered by a very small transformer that converts the AC to DC. The good thing about that is DC is typically safer. The bad thing is that the connector is proprietary (see photos), and you will not be able to connect any other type of lights to this set. That’s OK, you can connect 3 of these together with the one small transformer. The controller works with the phone app, but more importantly, the different sequence functions can be accessed with a simple little button switch on the connector. That’s handy if you don’t want to use the app or don’t have a phone app handy. The app is very handy if you mount these high on the house and decide to change the sequencing or brightness. The reason I took off a star is the app and instructions. The app is not as intuitive as another light set I have of a different brand, and there are many misspellings (see photo) which just shows poor quality of the app. There is also supposed to be a timer function that didn’t seem to work. Too bad, sounds like a good idea. Dimming is only available via the app. And the instructions could use some work. For example: “The total connected sets may not exceed the maximum allowed number of 2 Add-On Sets to a Controller/Transformer set.” What does this mean? 2 can be added to the original, or overall 2? Well, the box says “Connect up to 3 sets of lights,” so I guess the answer is 3. Confusing. Despite those shortcomings, I really like everything else about the set, especially that it can ultimately be manually controlled for the most important functions.

Although it took some time and returns, I'm finally truly enjoying these lights and their capabilities. It is VERY important to note that you can not attach another string of lights to the initial one UNLESS it's specifically labeled as an add-on. I bought two of the same initially and realized that I was not able to synch the two strings at the control or with the app no matter how much I tried. The app works perfectly once you have the correct strings hooked up together. We have two strings attached end-to-end on our tree and one string on a wreath hanging over our garage. I really appreciated being able to turn the outdoor string on and adjust it without having to go outside or into the attic (since that's where that wreath was plugged in).

They look nice and have a few pattern options and brightness control. Timer is a good feature but the app that controls the time and patterns needs an update. The needed app update is a way to set your time zone. I'm in the Central Time Zone and I have to set the time 10 hours back in order to make the lights come on when I want them to, meaning if I want them to come on at 6 pm (18:00) I set the on time for 10 am (10:00).

We loved them, they were very easy to use and set up.
