are the bulbs suitable for outdoor Christmas light strings?

I don't see why not, they are just like the colored Christmas bulbs, just clear. They are very bright, though, and I'm not sure if they would be suitable for outdoors exposed to wet weather.

Cannot be EXACT, but I would NOT use them outside, they are much more intended for Night Lights.

I would assume so as they look like any other indoor/outdoor bulb. I am using them indoor for window accent lights that turn on and off for night time use. They're not candelabra style shaped bulbs but more like the conventional night light shape. Base is candelabra style, just the glass shape of the bulb isn't normal candelabra shape. They seem to work and last OK. 7 1/2 watt.

They fit an indoor screw light socket. I doubt that they would fit a Christmas light string.

No. They are for night lights or window candles. They are very delicate they blow easily.

Yes, as long as your light string takes C7 bulbs (as opposed to C9). C7 bulbs have a 12mm screw base, whereas C9 bulbs have a 17mm screw base. Just measure the diameter of the opening in your light string.

I bought these for night lights although they can be used in Christmas light strings. Check your light string-it may take a C9 which is larger

I already have my lights put up for the Autumn season and I no longer have the boxes they came in. Since they are not LED's, you are usually told to not string more than 3 sets of 100 together. I do have 5 sets strung together and they seem to be fine.

Yes, I am using these both inside and outside. Obviously needs to be in an approved outdoor fixture. These are better than CFL's outside, especially in cold weather, as they are instantly at full brightness without any warm-up period.

I wouldn't use these for christmas lights at all. They are for a dry, indoor, permanent installation. They require a regulated 12v DC current in order for them to perform properly. Not only that, but these require soldering in order to function as you only have a few connectors. It would look cool, but it would be too much headache for it to work and look good. If they would be outside, they're dead as soon as it rains.

I wouldn't. They are stickum. And work well with Christmas lights. I didn't try to use them for something heavier so honestly I can say if they wouldn't I just am going to tell you that I wouldn't personally use them for that.

These light are 12VDC powered using an AC adapter or "wall wort". If you are comfortable soldering, they can be soldered together. Otherwise, you will need the cable to mate multiple strands together. These will not work with traditional Christmas lights. If you are looking to use these outdoors, you will need the model in the watertight tubing. These do not come with their own AC adapter. You will need to buy one separately. They are available on Amazon.

No yellow lights on my four different strings of lights....red, green and blue. And they work very well although I only used them at Christmas time. I installed them on the antique windmill tower in my front yard and at night it looked like I had the biggest Christmas tree here in the mountains.

Probably could be used outside, although we used them in an inside light fixture. We ended up replacing them with brighter fluorescent bulbs in order to better illuminate the area, but the bulbs (brightness-wise) are great for somewhere were a softer light was desired. If you're looking for a white/daylight bulb, this one is not for you, though -- it's a bit yellow.

I use them in a old color wheel for my Christmas tree, you can't let the bulb get too close to them, but it works.

i'm sure you could if you find one small enough. i just used a clear christmas light bulb. you can only use up to 6 watts and the screw in part is really small. hope this helps..

These bulbs are the standard size of Christmas lights. They are not very big.

As long as the fixture is rated for a 100 Watt Incandescent, you'll be just fine.These instantly emit a brilliant 1700 Lumens - perfect for outdoor. Bad part is the relatively short 750 hour life. "Double life" bulbs last longer, but you lose a few hundred lumens.

I used 4 strings of these in an event hall in lieu of using the super unattractive fluorescent hall lights. They were on for at least 6-7 hours with no problem. I actually think they are better suited for indoor use as they are not as sturdy as commercial quality outdoor string lights (they're good quality, the construction of them is just more akin to like.... The large bulb Christmas lights).

I doubt it. We had to replace these lights where we had them because they were on too long and seemed to overheat. I doubt they could be used outside. They're pretty sensitive lights.

i gave a string of these lights to a friend and they have been outside since before christmas. the still glow most of the night after a sunny day. just ordered two more strings for him to complete the "lilac" bush in his front yard. can't wait till spring ..sb

I currently have them indoors only, but I'm sure they can be used outdoors just like any other bulb.

I believe so. The lights themselves are not water resistant, but there should be a layer of rubber-like protective coating that should keep the lights from getting wet. I would not trust these to last long outside in the weather but if they were to get damp or slightly wet it shouldn't be a problem.
