Description
These Christmas rope lights set 1000 LEDs inside a clear, flexible tube, so the glow reads as one continuous line of light rather than a row of separate points. The lit length runs to 50 metres, and that length is what settles the choice: one set is enough to trace a long banister, follow the edge of a large room or wind generously around a big tree without running short halfway. Before the first light there is a 5m lead cable, which gives you room to start the lit section where it looks best rather than wherever your power supply sits.
Indoors, rope lights come into their own along lines that ordinary string lights struggle to follow neatly: up the rail of a staircase, along the top of a dresser or bookcase, around a mantelpiece, inside a deep window recess or along a hallway shelf. With 1000 LEDs spread over the whole run, there is plenty to wind many times round a tall Christmas tree in a living room, or to carry one unbroken line of light from the hallway up the stairs. We think they suit anyone who likes to dress the whole house for Christmas, where a single long run looks calmer and tidier than several short sets joined together.
The clear tube keeps the LEDs together in one smooth, rounded line that bends around corners and gentle curves, so it follows a rail or shelf edge without the loops and gaps of a looser string. To keep it looking its best, give it a light wipe with a soft dry cloth when dust settles. When the season ends, coil it in wide, loose loops rather than tight turns and store it somewhere dry until next December, because a kinked tube is harder to lay straight the following year. Plan the route before you start, and the lit length will finish exactly where you want it.

Frequently Asked
How long are these rope lights?
The lit length is 50 metres, and there is a 5m lead cable before the first light, giving you room to reach your power supply.
How many LEDs do the rope lights have?
There are 1000 LEDs set inside the clear tube along the full 50 metre length, so the light runs as one continuous line.
Where can I use these rope lights indoors?
They suit staircase rails, mantelpieces, the tops of dressers and bookcases, deep window recesses and hallway shelves, or winding round a tall Christmas tree.
Is 50 metres enough for a large Christmas tree?
It is a generous length that winds many times round a tall tree, so you can space the turns closely for a fuller look.
How should I clean and store the rope lights?
Wipe the tube with a soft dry cloth to remove dust, then coil it in wide, loose loops and keep it somewhere dry between seasons.
