Update 3/21/19: when I posted my original review I figured that I would try unscrewing every bulb and wiping the base of the bulb and the inside of each socket with an alcohol wipe to remove corrossion. Then I applied about a dime-sized bit of dieletric grease to the bases of the bulbs and screwed them back in. Since I have done that there has been plenty of rain and wind and I have not had a single bulb go out. I own 4 strings attached all in the same area of my yard. So if you buy these just grab dielectric grease and do what I did and I am sure you will have some luck. Its also helpful for use in automotive work (thats where I learned about the stuff) and around the house to help further insulate bulbs and connectors wherever they may be. Good luck! I should mention I changed my review to 3 stars because the company was helpful through email, replaced 7 bulbs that burnt out and said they would pass on my info about the dielectric grease onto a supervisor... I highly suggest if they are reading this that they begin telling customers to do that or perhaps include a large enough packet of it with their purchase to customers.....
They look great.... just I have had them up for less than a week and half the bulbs burned out.
Update: one of the bulbs has water in it! I live in Los Angeles... its rained a bit but not THAT much. How is this a weatherproof product?!
