Setup and Installation

  1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all items from the packaging. Inspect the string and bulbs for any visible damage.
  2. Install Bulbs: Gently screw each ST38 LED bulb into its respective E12 socket on the string. Ensure each bulb is tightened securely to ensure proper electrical contact and prevent moisture ingress.
  3. Plan Placement: Determine the desired location for your string lights. Consider the length of the string (60 feet) and the proximity to a power outlet.
  4. Hang the String Lights: Use appropriate hanging methods such as guide wires, hooks, or zip ties to secure the string lights. Avoid excessive tension on the wire. The integrated hanging loops on each socket facilitate easy installation.
  5. Connect Multiple Strings (Optional): If you are using multiple GLUROO ST38 string light sets, connect them end-to-end using the integrated male and female plugs. Ensure the total wattage of connected strings does not exceed 480 Watts.
  6. Power Connection: Once the string lights are securely installed and all bulbs are tightened, plug the power cord into a standard 120V AC outdoor-rated electrical outlet.
