I bought 12 sets of these. One string kept blowing a fuse but thankfully it was the first in line & by removing it the rest worked. You can string lots together & they'll light up the whole neighborhood. I wish I could switch from solid to blinking without changing a bulb because I just bought 12 more for baseball season & I want them to blink when we win! Oh, I added a timer and a remote so I don't have to trudge through snow to plug them in. I love them, obviously. This pic is lavender & red but it sure looks pink so I left them up till Valentines Day.
