What is the diameter of each globe?

Each globe has a 50mm (approx. 2-inch) diameter with a 30mm (1.18-inch) mounting base.

What kind of power supply do I need?

You will need a DC12V or DC24V power supply, depending on the version you select. The total power is 28.8W per string, so we recommend a power supply with at least 35W capacity to ensure longevity.

Installation & Powering Guide

Plan your layout, measuring the required length and confirming your choice of voltage (DC12V or DC24V).
Mount the string securely. The 3cm base can be screwed onto a surface for fixed installation.
Connect the input wires to a correctly sized UL certified power transformer or waterproof driver. The power supply's wattage should be at least 20% higher than the string's total load (e.g., a 35W+ power supply for one 29W string).
For brightness control, install a compatible single color dimmer between the power supply and the light string.
Test the connection to ensure all 40 globes are functioning correctly before finalizing the installation.

⚠ Precautions

Ensure the output voltage of your power supply exactly matches the voltage of your string lights (12V or 24V). Mismatching voltage will damage the LEDs.
The total power of the connected strings should not exceed 80% of the power supply's capacity.
All connections must be properly sealed to maintain the IP67 waterproof integrity for outdoor applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are these lights color-changing?

A:No, this model provides a single static color. You can choose from 8 different colors and white temperatures when ordering. For a color-changing version, please see our addressable RGB version.

Q: Can I connect multiple strings together end-to-end?

A:For consistent brightness and safety, we recommend powering each 17ft string individually or in parallel from an appropriately sized power supply. Connecting long runs in series can cause voltage drop.

Q: Are these string lights dimmable?

A:Yes, they are fully dimmable from 0-100% when connected to a compatible low-voltage DC PWM dimmer.

Q: How durable are they for permanent outdoor installation?

A:They are designed for long-term outdoor use, featuring an IP67 waterproof rating and a durable, UV-resistant PC shell that resists yellowing and aging.
