              A:  In my experience, no. We turn off our patio light and turn these on and it eliminates our bug problem. It was one of my concerns in buying this set as well. We love it.

                          A:  Hi AG, I am sorry but these are not dimmable.

                          by|May 4, 2023

                            A:  Using the supplied incandescent bulbs, absolutely yes, this is dimmable. All incandescent bulbs are dimmable. Just make sure your dimmer is rated for the power required by this light string: 24 x 11 watts, if using the supplied bulbs.

                            by|May 4, 2023

                            A:  No. They just plug into an outlet.

                              A:  The light sets are available for order through Home Depot. If you are installing them on a patio with white screen supporting structure, I would suggest you consider ordering them in white - This option is not shown on the HD website, but is available for in-store ordering.

                                A:  Hi SadinIL, it looks like that this 48 ft. 24-Socket Incandescent String Light Set is a store exclusive item and only able to be bought in a Home Depot store. Unfortunately we do not sell it with online stock for purchase. If you are unable to see the store inventory or price it is most likely either not a stocked item in your area or no longer available for purchase from Homedepot.com. I would advise you visit or contact your local Home Depot store for pricing and availability. Please follow the steps below to localize your Homedepot.com: 1. Localize Homedepot.com using your zip code (My Store Location: Change) 2. Choose the store where you want to pick up the item (Make this my Store) We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future. Thank you for shopping Home Depot!
