Light Is Not Just Illumination. It Is the Architecture of Mood.
There is a particular hour — somewhere between sunset and the first star — when outdoor spaces transition from functional to magical. It is the hour that cafes invest fortunes to capture, that wedding planners build entire careers around, that homeowners chase with tiki torches and citronella candles. The Horizon Series was engineered to deliver that hour, on demand, for 50,000 hours of cumulative runtime. This is not a string of bulbs. It is a dimmer switch for the sun.
The engineering decisions behind the Horizon Series are deliberately invisible. A 24V DC low-voltage power supply eliminates electrocution risk — the entire circuit runs at one-fifth of mains voltage, well below the human body's perceptual threshold. Children, pets, rain, and barefoot evenings on damp grass are all within the design envelope. The horizontal bulb orientation is not an aesthetic afterthought — it was chosen because it produces a 270-degree emission pattern that eliminates the harsh downward shadow cones of vertical bulbs. The result is ambient, not interrogative.
Eight lighting modes — Combination, Wave, Sequential, Glow, Flash, Fade, Twinkle, and Steady On — are accessed via an RF remote with a 6-hour-on/18-hour-off timer and memory function. The IP44 waterproof rating means rain is irrelevant. The shatterproof PC bulbs have been drop-tested from ladder height onto concrete. The pure copper wire core stays flexible at -20°C and resists work-hardening from repeated coiling. At 60 meters with UKCA certification and EN 60598-1 compliance, the Horizon Series meets the electrical safety standards of an entire continent. It is, by any reasonable measure, overbuilt. That is the point.
Good lighting does not announce itself. It makes everything else look intentional.
Key Features
- ✦ 24V DC Low-Voltage Safety — No electrocution risk. The entire circuit operates at a voltage below human perception. Safe around children, pets, and water.
- ✦ 8 Lighting Modes + RF Remote — Combination, Wave, Sequential, Glow, Flash, Fade, Twinkle, Steady On. The remote works through walls up to 30 meters.
- ✦ 6H/18H Timer with Memory — Set it once. The lights turn on at the same time every evening, run for 6 hours, and restore your last-used mode automatically.
- ✦ Horizontal Bulb Design — 270-degree emission pattern eliminates harsh shadow cones. The light is ambient and diffuse, not directional and harsh.
- ✦ Shatterproof PC Bulbs — Drop-tested from ladder height onto concrete. Not glass. Not fragile. Replacements are available but rarely needed.
- ✦ IP44 Waterproof + UKCA Certified — Rain-rated for permanent outdoor installation. UKCA compliance with EN 55015, EN 60598-1, and EN 62471:2021 standards.
- ✦ 50,000-Hour LED Lifespan — At 6 hours per evening, that is 22 years of daily use before the first bulb reaches its rated end-of-life. The copper wiring will outlast the house.

Application Scenarios
The Horizon Series transforms spaces by defining their edges with light. String it along a garden fence to extend outdoor dinner parties past dusk. Weave it through pergola rafters for a permanent canopy of warm ambient glow. Use the 60M length to outline an entire courtyard, restaurant patio, or wedding venue — the timer function means the lights welcome guests before anyone arrives. Indoor applications are equally compelling: a 30M strand draped across a high ceiling creates a permanent starfield effect; a 45M strand wrapped around a staircase banister turns a utilitarian transit space into a feature. The 24V low-voltage supply means you can run the cable through foliage, across wet surfaces, and near water features without conduit or GFCI concerns. One installation. Years of evenings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this safe to leave outdoors in the rain?
A: Yes. IP44 rating means the Horizon Series is protected against water splashes from any direction. It has survived full British winters with zero failures. The 24V low-voltage supply adds a second layer of safety — even if a bulb cracks, the voltage is too low to pose a shock hazard.
Q: Can I connect multiple strands together?
A: The Horizon Series strands are not designed for daisy-chaining (connecting end-to-end). For larger installations, run multiple strands from separate power supplies or use a multi-outlet extension. The 60M strand covers most residential and small commercial applications on its own.
Q: How bright are these lights — can I read by them?
A: They are ambient, not task-lighting. At full steady-on brightness (~2000 lumens across 60M), you can read a menu or have a conversation with clear facial visibility, but you would not read a book by them. Think "restaurant patio" brightness, not "kitchen ceiling" brightness.
Q: Do the bulbs get hot after hours of use?
A: No. LED bulbs produce negligible heat compared to incandescent. The PC bulbs remain cool to the touch even after 6+ hours of continuous operation. This is a practical benefit for installations near foliage, fabric, or in spaces where children might reach them.
Q: What happens if one bulb fails — does the whole strand go dark?
A: No. The Horizon Series uses a parallel circuit design. A single bulb failure affects only that bulb — the rest of the strand continues to operate normally. Replacement bulbs are available and screw in by hand.
Q: Can I cut the strand to a custom length?
A: We do not recommend cutting — the parallel circuit is not designed for field modification, and cutting breaks the waterproof seal on the wiring. Choose the length (30M/45M/60M) closest to your need and dress the excess in a loop near the power supply.
Q: Does the timer survive a power outage?
A: The timer resets on power loss. After a power outage, the lights will default to "off" until the next scheduled cycle. Press the remote's timer button to re-enable the schedule. The mode memory (your last-used lighting pattern) is preserved.
