would these be bright enough for under wine bottles as center pieces on tables for wedding reception?

They would give colored bottles a nice warm glow but clear bottles will be brighter

I think it would be pretty inside a clear wine bottle; but inside a green or brown bottle, the light may be too subtle.

They are not really bright enough for multiple people in a dark setting (like a wedding reception). When I used these for a photo booth application, I also had to have my speedlight flash on the camera - of course the camera was on a tripod to minimize camera shake. If you are using them in a bright space, they should work well. I have successfully used these for photos of couples where you can get the lights real close without worrying about the lights getting in the shot.

I would not say they are bright enough for a primary light for a sink more of a accent light. I can email a picture of how I used them if you like.

I think very nice lights, mine still working great, two would work well and you could always use them for other uses after study time plus light the entire table.

I did not intend anything but positive comments. I love these lights they have a vintage look and are beautiful. I have four strands of 100 lights. They are perfect for weddings and anywhere you need some beautiful lighting. I did not know they were dimmable as the other comment said. I'll have to look into that.

Yes. I occasionally work at the table and I find that there is enough light. Of course it would depend on how low the light is over the table. Overall I have been very happy with this light.

We used them for subtle lighting in a tent for a wedding reception but I think they were rated for indoor/outdoor

Probably not. I use mine to highlight a palm and a couple of crape myrtles and they're more than adequate for that. I'm assuming you'd be mounting on the house to illuminate the drive and these might do OK for 20 feet or so, but not too much past that.

How many for a bedside reading light? More than I can afford, that's for sure. These are intended for ambiance on the dinner table, a fireplace mantle, etc. They do not cast a whole lot of light. That being said, they look very nice are a great addition to our dinner table (3-4 spread out down the middle of the table) and the mantle above the fireplace (four, clustered together).

The light is very dim. Would not be sufficient to light a dining area. However it would give it a nice sparkle!I use on under my deck umbrella but in addition to other deck lighting and candles. I bring it inside when not in use.

The lights are very thin. I would say about the thickness of a spaghetti noodle. But don't let their size fool you, they are quite bright. It should be ok for flip cup.

If being used as the main source of light I would say no. They would be perfect for extra light above your desk but I wouldn't be happy with 2 of these as the main lighting source.

Sure. If you solder instead of using these connectors, it would be more even light at the corner. Also, get the non-waterproof type light strips as they are easier to work with.

I don't believe so. they are already quite dim. I don't think there's a need for them. they are a soft white.

They don't replace a flashlight, but they definitely are bright enough to stand out in the reception venue. These were a HUGE hit with kids and adults at our daughter's wedding reception. They lasted through the evening, and went home with many sleepy children. Note they are on a loop that can be around a neck. I also put a set in the guest bag for out of town guests who had kids along.

Yes. We ordered these for our wedding reception and were very pleased. I own a restaurant and recommend them to all guests who are doing catering through us.

I would suggest ivory with a touch of gold, very warm neutral tone. Emits a lovely warm glow on my bedside tables.
