The fairy lights fills a 1.8m Christmas outstanding. The green wire fit perfect for my green tree. Amber also makes a wonderful warm light. So much for the good. Most reviews are indeed excellent. Perhaps no one has ever bothered to even touching the power supply? I did not have switched outlet more freely, had to part so via "plug out - plug in - plug out --- ...." on and off. And I realized that the AC adapter is extremely hot, not very hot, really hot, you can buy it touched. So I requested replacement at Amazon, also arrived promptly, great service. But again, it is so that the AC adapter is extremely hot. It smells funny then, both power supplies. So now the replacement is due. Because a fire hazard I would not expose myself needlessly. Conclusion: Either I have two times caught a Monday device - or any other review writers work with from distance switchable outlets. Hopefully no burns from the hut.
