These are fun little lights that come with a remote. I didn’t rate waterproof as I hung mine inside but they definitely look sturdy.The item appeared similar to the pictures but the ghost, bat and pumpkins are so small that from 10' away you can't tell what they are. Also the remote control didn't work at all, though the manual control attached to the battery holder box worked fine.Great product! Love all the lighting options, and having a timer option helped a lot - used for an entire month and still didn’t need to replace the batteries. Great value.Mis hijos amaron sus luces, se divierten mucho viendo sus fantasmas y usando su control para cambiar los colores, ritmos y el brillo de la luz. Mi balcón luce muy bien.I love my new lights. And it has a remote to allow easy use, perfect. Just in time for Halloween. But don't worry. There not coming down, ever!These held up well in a covered outdoor setting. Only had to replace the batteries once in 45 days of nightly use.I haven't gotten a chance to hang them yet, but they are so cute! I can't wait!
