I strongly recommend using plug-in string lights on a dimmer instead of solar. You can get decent quality lights from harbor freight for not much more than this:

https://www.harborfreight.com/sea...g%20lights

Run a tight steel wire along the path that you intend to string the lights and then you can hook or twist-tie the lights to the wire. This provides better support in high winds and takes the strain off the light wiring.
I don't know if I'd call buying $35 lights for someone excited about buying a house any kind of mistake. A $10,000 jacuzzi—yes... but this? C'mon now. Let the person start to dream about their new home.

Now if $35 is a major purchase for said buyer... probably shouldn't be buying a home just yet.

Brand is "unbranded". No other lights under that brand name at HD have any ratings and none appear to be carried in store. Makes me wonder. Otherwise, price is good for the 1st one.

I've never seen a set of solar powered led string lights that was worth a damn after 1 year. The battery gets killed over winter and the solar panels lose a lot of efficiency as dirt accumulates.

Low voltage lighting works so much better.

Anyone know what the length is from the solar panel to the first light?

they have their uses. if you can do low voltage, sure, that is a way better option... but for someone who is in an apartment, or wants lights far far from their existing power... these can be great, with limitations. ive got a set at a pavilon that get turned on only when we are using the pavilion. plenty of time to charge them up, and then only get used for a few hours at a time. theyve been in place for about 2, maybe 3 years. they will still stay on for at least 6 hours.

planning on using these as an every night dusk to dawn light, particularly over winter? nope. no way, no how. panel would have to be way bigger in order to not leave the battery half charged at the end of the day.
