The cloth diffuses the light, so the ghosts glow softly rather than showing a hard point of light through the fabric. Two lengths are available: 59 inches with 10 lights for a window frame or a mantel, and 118 inches with 20 lights for a doorway, a stair rail or a run of fence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/6090\/7101\/files\/5c248daab09f46de98493254bd9bf465-goods.jpg?v=1790624741\" alt=\"String of white cloth ghosts lit from inside by warm white LEDs\"\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo lengths: 59 in with 10 LEDs, or 118 in with 20 LEDs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm white single-color LEDs, not color changing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRuns on AA batteries, so no outlet and no extension cord\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple button switch on the battery box, no app and no remote\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBatteries are not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/6090\/7101\/files\/f66ddbbad79b459897ada09d08e3d4b2-goods.jpg?v=1790624742\" alt=\"Ghost string lights draped along an indoor window frame at night\"\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBattery power and where that helps\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the string runs on AA cells rather than a plug, it goes in places a mains string cannot reach: a bookshelf, the middle of a mantel, a window on an upper floor, a wreath, a tabletop centerpiece. There is no cord to hide and nothing to trip over. The trade-off is the battery box, which is a small plastic housing you will want to tuck behind the curtain or under a shelf edge. The product data does not state how many AA cells the box takes or how long a set lasts, so buy a pack and check the box itself when it arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe two lengths, and which one you want\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 59 inch string with 10 ghosts is short. It suits a single window, a mirror frame, a mantel, or a wreath, and it looks sparse if you try to stretch it across a doorway. The 118 inch string with 20 ghosts covers a standard doorway with some slack to spare, or a stair banister, or a short fence run. If you are dressing more than one spot, two of the short strings often look better than one long one split awkwardly between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight source: LED\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight color: Warm white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLighting type: Single color, not color changing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength options: 59 in (10 LEDs), 118 in (20 LEDs)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower source: AA batteries, not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBattery type: Non-rechargeable AA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl method: Button switch on battery box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGhost material: Cloth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHoliday: Halloween\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePlacement and outdoor use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndoors this string is easy: window frames, mantels, shelves, doorways, bannisters and table centerpieces all work, and the cloth ghosts sit well against both painted walls and wood. Outdoors, keep it to covered spots such as a porch ceiling or a sheltered entryway. The product data gives no waterproof or IP rating, and both the cloth ghosts and the battery box are the parts that would suffer first in rain, so we would not run this along an open fence in wet weather. Store it loosely coiled with the batteries taken out, since cells left in over the year are what usually ruins a battery string.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions Shoppers Ask\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre batteries included?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The product data is explicit that batteries are not included, and it lists non-rechargeable AA cells as the type.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many AA batteries does it take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe product data does not state the count, so we are not going to guess. Check the battery box when it arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat color is the light?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWarm white, and it is a single fixed color. It does not change colors or cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long do the batteries last?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe product data gives no runtime figure. For a small LED string used for a few hours an evening, a set generally covers a season, but that is a rule of thumb rather than a specification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it have a timer or a remote?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. Control is a button switch on the battery box and nothing more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I leave it out in the rain?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe would not. There is no waterproof or IP rating in the product data, and the cloth ghosts and battery box are both vulnerable. A covered porch is fine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I connect two strings end to end?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. Each string is battery powered with its own box, so they run independently rather than linking together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow far apart are the ghosts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe product data gives total length and LED count but no spacing figure. On the 118 inch string the 20 ghosts work out closer together than the 10 on the 59 inch string.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the ghosts hard plastic or fabric?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe ghosts are cloth, which is what gives the soft diffused glow instead of a visible bright point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it bright enough to light a room?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, and it is not meant to be. This is a decorative accent string, not task or room lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yardhomedeals.com","offers":[{"title":"59 in (10 LEDs)","offer_id":66069345206621,"sku":null,"price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"118 in (20 LEDs)","offer_id":66069345239389,"sku":null,"price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/6090\/7101\/files\/3f797c92d23049c283300532094235e3-goods.jpg?v=1790624742","url":"https:\/\/www.yardhomedeals.com\/products\/ghost-string-lights-warm-white-led-battery-operated","provider":"Yardhomedeals.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
