Dimensions, materials, and technical specs — plus a scaled dimension drawing.
The strand uses a rubber cord and socket housing built to stay outside, with genuine incandescent bulbs rather than LED. That is the one thing that sets this strand apart from the rest of the Ambience line, which is LED throughout.
These are vintage Edison-style string lights with exposed filaments, plug-in rather than solar or battery. There is no dimmer built in and no smart features: the appeal is the warm, nostalgic incandescent glow itself.
Not on their own. The bulbs are fixed-output incandescent with a warm, candle-like tone, not a stated Kelvin color temperature. To dim them, run the strand through a compatible outdoor plug-in dimmer rated for incandescent loads.
The bulbs are omnidirectional, so you aim the strand by how you hang it rather than by pointing individual bulbs. Draped low over a table gives an intimate pool of light, while a higher run across a patio spreads it evenly.
Every strand ships with its incandescent bulbs included, rated 11 watts each with a standard screw base, and they are replaceable individually, so one burned-out bulb does not mean a new strand.
Two: a 24 foot strand with 7 sockets and a 48 foot strand with 15 sockets, spaced 3 feet apart on both. Both use the same 11 watt incandescent Edison bulbs and warm glow.
Outdoors, for entertaining: patios, gazebos, and lounge spaces where a warm, nostalgic glow matters more than energy efficiency. Because the bulbs run hotter and draw more power than LED, they suit occasional evening use rather than dawn-to-dusk lighting.
The 24 foot strand suits a small patio or a single fence run. The 48 foot strand covers a backyard seating area or two passes over a patio table. Leave slack for the drape rather than pulling the strand taut.
In a standard parcel box, not an oversized item. These incandescent string lights ship in a single carton measuring 9.92 by 8.66 by 4.53 inches at 3.0 lbs.
There is no assembly. The bulbs screw into the sockets and the strand plugs into a standard outlet. The real work is hanging it and giving it room to drape.
Replacement bulbs are worth keeping on hand since these are incandescent and run hotter than LED, so they have a shorter service life. Brightech sells spare S14 bulbs through its Amazon storefront rather than on brightech.com.
Ambience Incandescent plug-in string lights are covered by a 2 year warranty and are UL Listed, with US based customer service.
