Summary: Excellent Buy
Comment: Our patio umbrella has 8 spokes at 53" each and this fit perfectly. The package included zip ties, but very limited instructions. We figured it out and only took my husband (working alone) about 20 minutes to install. Tip: start with the last strand and attach it to end of a spoke and work your way inward. The light is bright enough to be able to see what you are eating, but not overly bright, and doesn't seem to attract insects.

Summary: First evening event is tonight
Comment: The string of lights was easy to install once I figured out what to do with the 2 extra strands. It has 8 strands and our umbrella only has 6 spokes. It was fairly easy to take the other 2 strands and attach them around the inner webbing at the top of the umbrella. We will be using them tonight for the first time. The only "down side" is that the string is white and our umbrella is green. Oh, well!

Summary: Wonderful lights
Comment: I have had the 8-spoke set of lights on my umbrella for about 4 years, using the lights 3-4 times a month through perhaps 5 months of the year, and came to this page to buy a replacement set or at least to find out what exactly are the specs of the replacement bulbs (I can't find the instructions). I have had quite reasonable service from the lights and they are a very nice addition to the umbrella. It probably did take an 1-2 hours to install the lights, given time to attach all the little zip ties and string an extension cord over the deck. Fortunately, as stated, the lead on the string is generously long. The only repair so far (besides now requiring some new bulbs) is that I had to replace the power plug on the string as it didn't take the California sun after perhaps 3 years. This shouldn't be a problem if the plug is in the shade. Otherwise, highly recommended.

Summary: Challenging
Comment: If I didn't already have umbrella lights, I would have found this package of strung lights perplexing and then frustrating. There are no directions...perhaps that's why they are so inexpensive! At the end of the day, it takes some thought and a little effort for perfectly functioning lights.
