Frequently Asked Questions
Is the surface of the string actually cool to the touch?
Yes. The strand runs on 30V low voltage, which is well below the threshold that causes heat buildup, so the bulbs and wire stay cool to the touch even after running for the full 6 hour timer cycle.
Can my toddler or cat touch the bulbs while they are on?
Yes. Because the bulbs and wire stay cool, there is no burn risk from casual contact. Many parents use these in nurseries and playrooms where little hands and paws reach for the strand.
Is this safer than the open flame candles I currently use?
It is a much safer alternative. There is no flame, no hot wax, no smoke, and no soot, so you get the same ambient glow on a mantel or dining table without the fire risk, the air quality issues, or the mess of melted wax.
Will I accidentally leave these on overnight and run up the electric bill?
No. The built in 6 hour on / 18 hour off timer auto loops, so the lights shut themselves off after 6 hours and turn back on at the same time the next day. You do not have to remember to flip a switch.
Does the low voltage adapter ever overheat?
The 30V 6W adapter is designed for continuous use and runs cool because the load is so low. Keep it in an open area, not buried under blankets or in a sealed container, and it will not overheat during normal operation.
I am sensitive to smoke and strong scents. Is there any odor?
There is no odor, no smoke, and no fumes because there is no combustion. The LEDs and PVC coated wire do not off gas, which is one of the main reasons people switch from candles to LED string lights.
Can I sleep with these on in my bedroom?
Yes. The 6 hour auto shutoff means the lights turn off in the middle of the night on their own, and the cool operation makes them safe to leave on while you fall asleep. You can also use a steady mode for a softer glow.
What happens if the wire gets chewed by a pet?
Even if a pet damages the outer insulation, the 30V low voltage output is far below household mains voltage, so the risk of serious shock is minimal compared to a chewed standard cord. That said, inspect any damaged strand and replace it rather than continuing to use it.
How does this compare to a candle warmer lamp for safety?
A candle warmer lamp still uses a hot bulb and melted wax, so it is hot to the touch and can spill. These LED string lights have no hot element, no wax, and an auto shutoff timer, which makes them the safer pick for bedrooms and kid spaces.
How does it compare to battery operated fairy lights for fire safety?
Battery fairy lights can overheat if old batteries are left inside, and they often run without a timer. These plug in LEDs run on 30V low voltage with an auto timer, so they are a safer, more reliable option for unattended overnight use.
Will the adapter cause a tripping hazard in a hallway?
Use the included 10 ft lead wire to route the adapter close to a wall outlet behind furniture, then secure the cord with a low profile cord cover. This keeps the walking path clear and protects the adapter from kicks and pulls.
Is it safe to use on a fabric headboard or canopy?
Yes. Because the bulbs and wire stay cool, there is no heat risk to fabric headboards, sheer curtains, or canopy material. Just avoid pinning the wire through the fabric, and let it drape freely.
How do I set up the string lights for the first time?
Unroll the strand, mount it on your chosen surface with hooks or clips, plug the 30V adapter into a standard outlet, and press the button on the adapter to turn the lights on. Press the button repeatedly to cycle through the 8 modes, then leave it on your favorite mode and the memory function will remember it for next time.
How does the 6 hour on / 18 hour off timer work?
Press and hold the button on the adapter for about 3 seconds until the indicator light turns on, and the timer activates. The lights will stay on for 6 hours, turn off for 18 hours, and repeat on a daily loop until you unplug the set or deactivate the timer.
How do I link multiple strands together for a longer run?
Each set has a connector on the end opposite the adapter. Plug the next strand connector into the previous strand, twist the waterproof cap to secure it, and repeat up to 4 sets for a total of 132 ft of lit length on a single outlet. Only one adapter is needed for the linked run.
Does this work with a smart plug or outdoor smart outlet?
Yes. The set plugs into any standard 110 to 120V outlet, including smart plugs, outdoor smart outlets, and timer outlets. The built in 6 hour timer can run alongside a smart plug schedule if you want extra control, but you do not need a smart plug to use the set.
Will this work with a dimmer switch?
The set is not designed to be used with an external wall dimmer, and doing so can damage the adapter. Use the 8 built in modes and the 6 hour timer to control your experience without an external dimmer.
What is included in the box?
The box includes one 33 ft LED string light strand with 10 ft lead wire, the 30V low voltage adapter, and a user manual. Mounting hardware is not included, so you will want to pick up clear Command hooks, zip ties, or outdoor clips based on where you plan to install it.
How long will the LEDs last before I need to replace them?
LEDs are rated for tens of thousands of hours of use. With typical seasonal and year round use, most users get many years of service from a single set. There are no bulbs to replace, and the sealed design means no maintenance is required.
Can the lights be used in rain, snow, or extreme heat?
The IP44 waterproof rating covers rain, snow, splashing water, and typical outdoor conditions. The strand is designed for year round outdoor use, but the adapter should be plugged into a covered outlet and the connection points should be kept free of standing water.
What is the difference between fairy lights, string lights, and twinkle lights?
Fairy lights, string lights, and twinkle lights are all common names for the same category of small bulb LED strands on a flexible wire. Fairy lights often refers to the thinner, more delicate wire, string lights is the broader category, and twinkle lights refers to sets with flashing or animated modes, all of which describe this set.
