This page holds 50m LED rope light and 45m rope light on reels, heavy duty, icicle, net, cluster, berry and festoon string lights, 45m reels of 1500 LEDs, a solar motion sensor wall light and a battery motion sensor floodlight.

Choosing Lyyt Outdoor Lights

Choose by power source, then by look, then check how far a run extends from one plug.

Mains, battery or solar

The heavy duty string lights such as the 155.404UK plug into the mains, with 1.5m of cable from the plug to the first connector. The 155.612UK string lights need 3 x AA batteries, not supplied, and run 6 hours on and 18 hours off.

Frequently asked questions

Can these lights stay outside?

Yes, within the limits of their rating: every product on this page is IP44 rated, but some are meant for sheltered spots. The 155.467UK string lights and the 155.654UK reel are for indoor and sheltered outdoor use, the 155.652UK berry lights for outdoor covered use, and the power adaptor of the 155.680UK festoon lights must be indoors.

Yes, at the marked cutting points. The 50m LED rope lights such as the 153.460UK can be cut at 2 metre intervals, and the 230V rope lights such as the 155.020UK at 1 metre intervals. Make any joints or cut ends waterproof, and note that no more than 2 rolls can be connected together.

How many string light sets can run from one plug?
