Festoon Lights (KIT) - 20m String with Globes and Driver
Get the summer outdoor alfresco feel with festoon lights, this 20metre long set has 28 globes spaced at 700 millimetre intervals. We have found this to be perfect spacing offering the perfect amount of light over the entertaining area.
Our Festoon lights are Low Voltage (12 volts) making them safe for use outside in the weather and even over a pool, you can rest easy knowing that there is no way you can receive an electrical shock from these lights if something was to go wrong.
These Festoon lights feature the globe dropped from the main suspension wire giving the lights the ultimate festoon look and feel.
This product is for a 20 metre length complete with warm white globes and the driver to suit. This driver is the 20watt size which is capable of running the 20m string, you cannot anymore strings to this driver. If you want to add more you are best to buy a bigger driver and the number of strings you want to use separately.
Note: The driver and Festoon lights only have a short connection cable on both items, this means the driver will be mounted very close to the start of the Festoons first light globe (within 600mm). If the Driver needs to be located further away use an extension cable to increase the distance between the driver and the festoon lights.

- We have researched our globes and found that glass globes work the best, the glass stays clear for a long period of time and transmits the lights from the globe best. However this makes the globes fragile so please take care when installing the string. Best practice is to install the string then finish off adding the globes. (we have trialed plastic globes in the past to make them stronger however they yellowed after time in our harsh sun, glass globes work best).
Festoon strings can be strung up with a large span however this increases the risk of a join in the wire failing if too much tension is put on the string. During storms the festoons lights can swing about with the wind and this increases the tension of the joints causing them to fail. for spans over 5 metres we recommend the use of our festoon suspension kit, included in this kit are mounting brackets and stainless steel wire that can be pulled taut, the festoon string can then be connected to this wire. The wire will then act as the support taking the load off the wire and the joints in the wire.
