The lights are nice and bright, however I’m very disappointed by how they’re wired in. This is just below the joint of each piece where 6 sets of lights are all plugged in then taped together. Then you have to plug in the next section to those already plugged in. Seems kinda unsafe. One light was broken, but they provide a lot of extra ones for you and the broken one doesn’t make the rest of the branches go out thankfully. Three branches were out due to a wire coming undone though, but I was able to find it and replace it. It’s not quite as full as I’d like it, but it’ll at least keep the cats from pulling all the lights off. For $300, I expected more.
