How many lights actually turn on? I just bought this and only see 6 LEDs lit, while it seems that theres a total of 12? Do only half work?

There are only 6 LED's. You can see the difference in the labelling next to the actual LED's.

I have three of these and each one only has 6 LEDs lit, so I think that is how it is supposed to be.

Make sure the battery is installed properly, and then push the power button on the handle. The LED will light up, and depending on how many times you push the power button, it will show that many lights on. 4 is full power. Hope this helps.

I tested mine with two of the HitLights 5m cool white lights and ran it for about a half hour. The power supply didn't get noticeably warm so it didn't seem to be overdriven with that many lights. I would recommend going to the higher-rated power supply as a 48W supply will probably get hot with a maxed out load on it and fail prematurely, especially if you are going to add jumper wires to connect the strings or any smaller segments you cut and connect.

I have not had to replace any bulbs and I have 7 lights and 1 spot light in one line. What gauge wire did you use? I used 12 gauge wire so I am able to use more that I have now? If you use used a smaller gauge wire that would be your problem. My email address is flintstone45@comcast.net if you have any other questions.

you still have the same number of lights i put 2 16 foot sections together and couldn't tell any difference in brightness led's don't use a lot of power as long as you connect at the proper point it should work just fine

One of the LED bulbs could be bad. Pull the light apart and check they all work, its easier than it sounds.

I had the same behavior on a 12 light candelabra. Your problem is likely not with the lights but with the switch. After doing some testing I discovered the problem was actually with the dimmer switch. Even when turned off there was still current being fed to across the circuit. Just enough to dimly illuminate the LED lights. I actually tried three different dimmer switches I purchased about the same time and all three had the same behavior. For now, I have replaced the dimmer switch with a regular single pole on/off switch and that did the took care of the problem, at least for now. I am looking for another dimmer switch product that can be used.

The number of LEDs is unimportant. The output as measured in lumens is what is important. That information is not provided for this product. LEDs are not all the same, even those that output light in the same narrow spectrum; design and thermal specs matter, input voltage and current matter. 9 LEDs of one design could easily outperform more LEDs of another. If you want answers, demand to know the output as measured by an industry standard like lumens or candlepower.BTW, I attempted to ask that question specifically here, and that question hasn't appeared. Draw your own conclusions why that might be. The number of LEDs is unimportant. The output as measured in lumens is what is important. That information is not provided for this product.

Is it completely discharged? How many lights are lit? Is it able to charge anything? If it were mine and I tried different solutions with no luck I would send it back for a new one. I got two ,gifted then to my son's and they say they are working great.

Mine has 3 LEDs per side and a major difference between hi and low in nightlight mode. Yours could be defective.

Mine just arrived. I can't make the light work no matter which way I put the batteries in, nor is there a switch or button to push to turn it on if it did work. What's the story with the "5 LED" light?

Yes that is normal for LED lighting. I have mine on occupancy sensors. That way I don't feel weird clicking a light switch a waiting for it to turn on.

There are 40 pieces (lights) per package, but only about half of mine worked, so I ended up with 24 working lights and the rest went in the trash. Hoping you have better luck, but I would order plenty of extras just in case.

I'm running 22 lights in line now off of one power supply. You can get an extra set without the power supply and add them to your string. If you want to run more than 24, then I recommend splitting the power source and using two power supplies.

There are 90 LEDs. If you find a brighter work light in a similar size to this please let me know because I will want to buy it - this is THE brightest I have found.

The 4 LED's are lit. ...there are 4 Leds around the power on switch which indicate charge percentage.

From what I understand these LEDs arent supposed to go out like that in segments. Each bulb should not effect the others, I would return the whole thing.
