A warning of sorts on those lights: I bought a 10-lite set at the dollar store and powered them with a wal-wort. One by one they quit working. I used a 4.5V DC one from Radio Shack and it is regulated.
I'd like to hear more from you after you've had them turned off and on a dozen or so times because I have a use for them but don't want to waste my time again if they burn out so easily.

Walt,

I was hoping I wouldn't have had to report this but unfortunately the same thing is happening to me after 1 week. Out of the 9 lights 3 are out and 1 is blinking. Lucky I can quickly empty the stone and replace these cheap led Christmas lights with some better ones that I purchased as stand alone led and were never part of a Christmas set. Oh well it was worth a try and I am only out 50 cents.
