LED lights use up to 90% less energy, last longer, and stay cool to touch. They're the modern choice for Australian homes.
Perfect for Australian summers! Solar lights charge during the day and automatically illuminate at night. No running costs.
For outdoor use, look for IP44 or higher. IP65 lights can handle rain and are ideal for Australian weather conditions.
Measure your space first! For trees, multiply height by 3 for strand length. For rooflines, add 20% extra for draping.
Choose from mains-powered, battery, solar, or USB. Consider accessibility to power outlets when planning your display.
Warm white creates a classic look, cool white is modern, and multicolour is festive fun. RGB lights offer all options!
