LYYT 10 Festoon Lights Warm White 10m - IP44 Outdoor

The LYYT 10m festoon light string carries 10 warm white LED globes spaced 500mm apart on a black rubber cable, designed for outdoor installation in gardens, patios, courtyards and commercial hospitality spaces. Each globe houses 5 LEDs behind a white polycarbonate diffuser and runs from a 31V DC low-voltage power supply rated IP44 for weather resistance. The power adaptor must remain indoors; the cable and globes are rated for outdoor exposure.

The festoon string includes a built-in 6-hour timer that switches the lights on for 6 hours, then off for 18 hours, repeating the cycle automatically without manual intervention. This suits regular evening use in domestic gardens or hospitality settings where lighting needs to activate at the same time daily. The low-voltage LED design runs at 3.6W total power draw, keeping running costs minimal compared to incandescent festoon equivalents. The rubber cable resists UV degradation and remains flexible in cold weather down to typical UK winter temperatures.

Up to 12 sets can be connected in series using the male-female connectors at each end of the cable, extending the installation to 120m without additional power supplies. The 5.2m lead cable from the adaptor to the first globe allows the power supply to sit indoors near a socket while the festoon string runs outside. Each polycarbonate globe is impact-resistant and less prone to shattering than glass alternatives, making the festoons suitable for installations where accidental contact or wind movement is likely. The warm white LED colour temperature provides softer lighting than daylight-white LEDs, suiting evening ambience rather than task lighting.

Can the power supply be left outside?

No. The cable and globes are IP44-rated for outdoor use, but the power adaptor must remain indoors in a dry location. The 5.2m lead cable allows the adaptor to sit inside near a socket while the festoon string runs outside.

How many sets can be connected together?

Up to 12 sets can be connected in series using the male-female connectors at each end of the cable. This extends the installation to 120m total length without needing additional power supplies.

What is the timer function?

The built-in timer switches the festoons on for 6 hours, then off for 18 hours, repeating the cycle automatically. This suits regular evening use without manual switching each day.

Are the globes replaceable if one breaks?

The globes are fixed to the cable and are not individually replaceable. The polycarbonate construction is impact-resistant and less prone to breakage than glass festoon alternatives.
