FAQs
Can these lights be used outdoors all year round?

How do I activate the timer function?

What is the spacing between the LEDs?
The LEDs are spaced approximately 8cm apart along the 80m cable.
Are the LEDs replaceable?
No, the LEDs are non-replaceable. If one or more LEDs fail, the entire string may need to be replaced.
What is the estimated running cost?
Premier Decorations estimates the low-power LED lights will cost less than 50p to run over the festive period, based on their 1000 LED TreeBrights and the UK energy cap of £0.34 per kWh from 01/10/2022.

Troubleshooting
Lights do not turn on
Ensure the plug is securely connected to a working power outlet. Check that the transformer is correctly plugged in and has power. Verify that the cable is not damaged.
Lights are not changing function
Press the button on the transformer firmly and briefly to cycle through modes. If the timer is active (green light), you may need to turn them off and on again to select a different mode. Ensure the transformer is functioning correctly.
Timer function is not working
Ensure you are long-pressing the button on the transformer to activate the timer. The green light on the button should illuminate. If it doesn't, try unplugging the unit for a minute and then re-activating the timer function.
Some LEDs are not lit
Since the LEDs are non-replaceable, this may indicate a fault in the string. Check for any visible damage to the cable or connections. If the issue persists across a section, it may be a more significant fault.
Transformer feels warm
A slight warmth from the transformer is normal during operation. If it becomes excessively hot to the touch, unplug the lights immediately and contact customer support.
