This is better used if you’re using in a nesting situation. If you want to stretch it out you will not get much light. You may need to double for stretching.great looks goodThis was a great purchase. Great quality and a good price. I used them to decorate my mantel during the holidays and through Valentines day. The lights can be molded to take on some shape. I've had battery lights in the past that burned out in a couple of days. I love how this set runs off of electricity.These lights were just what I was looking for. I like the various settings and you can dim. PERFECT!The remote option is great and the usb makes it easy to plug it in anywhere.Love these lights but they did not come with their own power source. Fits into iPhone cube sized power source. Easy to work with when using for a garland.These are great got them for Valentine’s Day however we really like them and will probably leave them up in the bedroomLoved these little lights and how they function. They are far better than the battery ones.
