Our 240V festoon lights are IP44 and our 24V low voltage system are IP67. Both IP44 and IP67 can be left in full weather permanently.

Should you get glass or shatter-proof PVC bulbs?

Many of our commercial customers get the 24V system with the shatter-proof PVC bulbs because they like the safety of the low voltage, and the fact bulbs can’t break.

If the area you want to light is covered and you’re not concerned with bulbs ever breaking then the 240V system with glass bulbs is great.

The differences between the 240V system and the 24V low voltage system. Is the voltage, and the bulbs. Glass vs Shatter-Proof PVC.

The Biggest Mistake Most Make When Purchasing Festoon Lights

Buy Lights They Can’t Dim

Festoon lighting is mood lighting. I can’t say exactly how bright or dull you need your lights in your outdoor area. That’s why all our lights are dimmable.

Choose Ugly Bulbs

Ugly bulbs devalue the appeal of your lighting. People love looking at beautiful bulbs.

Wrong Colour Light

Sterile light destroys the look and appeal of your outdoor area. Warm white 2200K gives you that beautiful ambient glow that creates the perfect look and feels for your outdoor area.

Don’t Get All The Parts They Need
