These are really nice outdoor lights and give off a good amount of light. The black color blends nicely at night in the background and the texture of the lights seem like they will hold well against rust. The only slight con would be that the light bulbs seem to burn quickly. I would recommend not putting the lights to high on your roof so you're able to change them as needed and to look for a longer burning light bulb. These lights are also sold at a great price and therefore overall I highly recommend them.
