- Commercial Grade Patio Light Strings with Medium Base Sockets

Features:

• These popular outdoor patio light strings are ideal for landscape lighting for backyards, parks, cafes and wedding tents.
• These patio string lights have 16 gauge wire, medium base  sockets and spacing of 24" between sockets.
• PVC encapsulated sockets are resistant to UV sunlight exposure.
• Soft socket lips are designed to ensure a tight weather-resistant seal around the bulbs.
• These string lights are designed for both indoor (interior) and outdoor (exterior) use. Most of our customers use these products for outdoor landscape lighting.
• The 54 ft. and 106 ft. patio light strings come with a male power plug; power plug for the 330 ft. light string must be purchased separately. We recommend the UL listed 15 Amp rubber plugs.

We recommend these  medium base  light bulbs (sold separately):

• 11S14 light bulbs (11 Watts)
• A15 light bulbs (15 Watts)
• A19 party light bulbs  (25 Watts)

Wattage Capacity:

• The recommended maximum run per circuit for these light strings is approximately 1,250 Watts; limit of 25W per socket. This means that for a continuous length of light string, the maximum wattage running through should be 1,250 Watts or less; if possible, reduce the max run to 1,100 Watts or below. For example: for the 102 foot light string, since there are 50 sockets, recommended wattage per socket would be 25 Watts per socket (1,250 W ÷ 50 sockets). If you plan to use all 50 sockets, we recommend the 11S14 bulbs. If you plan to cut the string to customize it for your specific need, you can use the A19 (25W) bulbs up to 40 sockets (25W x 40 = 1,000W).

Please note that these light strings are not designed to be end-to-end connectable.

Light bulbs sold separately.

Suspensor Option: The black and green indoor/outdoor patio string lights come with an option of with suspensor or without suspensor. The suspensor provides an eyelet for cable wires to go through to provide additional support to hold up the string lights. In addition, the socket and the main wire are connected by a suspensor, which lowers the socket approximately 1 inch to help provide better illumination. To the right are close-up pictures of the light string socket with suspensor.

Without Suspensor: Main wire goes directly into the socket - there is no eyelet for a supporting cable and no suspensor hanging the socket lower.
