I have two pairs of 12 set string lights which I have connected together for a total of 24 lights strung together. They are working great outside on my porch. The color options, automation (such as going on/off around sunset and sunrise), and durability all seem great. After setting up an account on the app by added automation was Siri shortcuts. I got it set up on each of my family members phones as well so that they can also use Siri shortcuts to work with the lights. I would love it with native HomeKit support but the quality and Siri shortcut integration makes these excellent even without that!

I am very impressed.There is a learning curve the first time you set up. You MUST use a 2g Wi-Fi. It will not work with 5g Wi-Fi.It does work with IOS 16 after an update.To use Siri it must be programmed. You set up a scene, then add it to Siri, and you can call it whatever you want. Example: “Hey Siri, party mode.” Or “Hey Siri, Lights out, down goes Fraiser.”The lights in white mode are plenty bright, but in color mode they are fairly low lumen. They seem to handle extremes in temperature well. I have had two on my porch for a year, and winter and summer they function without issue. -20°F to 102°FI also have some in ceiling fans, they are also working well.I have the plug in switch. It works great to control my window unit AC, so it can handle reasonably high loads.

I love being able to control my lights with an app. I don’t have to shut off lights when I leave the house, I can shut them off after I leave. I like being able to turn them on before entering the house. Completely satisfied with this product

I have several Starfish lights in several rooms of my house! They are great once you get them linked. The problem is linking them for the first time. You have to link your phone to the light bulb using the starfish software. It sometimes takes several tries to link everything properly. I will buy more, I just hope it gets easier to link them!!
