Sylampow Net Lights, 120 LED, 6 x 5 ft

What the numbers mean

6 ft by 5 ft, 120 LEDs. A net is bought by the bush, not by the foot. One panel covers a clipped shrub of about four feet across; a hedge takes one panel per six feet, and they connect end to end.

Warm white only. No colour, no app. Eight modes on the plug, and steady is one of them.

Green wire. It disappears into the bush by day, which is the whole reason to buy a net rather than a string.

IP44. Rain. Not a sprinkler head, which is the thing a net on a bush is most likely to meet. Site it where the irrigation does not reach or switch the zone off for the season.

Who it is for

• The shrubs under the front windows, lit as a shape in one throw.
• The one seasonal light on this page that never touches the house: no ladder, no clips, no fascia.
• Pairing with a roofline string, so the ground has something to answer the eave.

Who should buy something else

• You want a lit bed all year: path lights or a spotlight aimed at the shrub.
• The bush is bigger than a car: nets scale by panel and the cost climbs fast; a string wound through it is cheaper past two panels.

What we could not check

We have not draped this net. There is no render of it on this site: the renderer places lights on eaves, walls, walks and spans, and it has no bush to throw a net over, so we would rather show nothing than a net drawn along a pergola beam with a count under it.

Owner reports cluster on the mesh tangling in the box and on a dead section on arrival. No second-season failure pattern surfaced, but the record here is thinner than the strings above have.

Price tiers are our own rough budget bands, not live prices. Check the listing for today’s price. The price itself stays on the listing, where it is current, rather than here, where it would go stale. The same catalogue drives the calculator, so a number here and a number there are the same number.
