Understanding the IP65 Rating:
The IP rating system classifies electrical enclosures like our string lights against dust and water ingress.
- IP: Stands for "Ingress Protection."
- First Digit (6): Indicates complete dust tightness. No dust particles can enter the enclosure.
- Second Digit (5): Represents protection against water jets from any direction (Rainfall).
Therefore, Litehouse Solar Festoon Lights are 100% South African weatherproof!
Durable Materials for Long-lasting Performance:
- Durable PVC Coating: The string itself features a robust PVC coating protecting the copper wires within from moisture, rain, and even UV rays. This prevents corrosion and ensures long-lasting performance.
- Copper Wiring: Copper is an excellent conductor of electricity, efficiently transmitting power to the bulbs while remaining protected from the elements within the PVC sheath.
- Clear Plastic LED Bulbs: These shatterproof bulbs are built to last, crafted from high-quality plastic resistant to weather and bumps. The secure screw-in design creates a tight seal with extra sealant for added moisture protection, making them perfect for damp or outdoor locations.
